Viewing the clips and photos on the internet and reading the reports is unreal, and trying to match the CR of my 2005 visit with the flooded streets and buildings is difficult. Very challenging times ahead. My thoughts and prayers go to everyone in Iowa.

We thought there was "nothing to do" before - what now? And the library, the thought of losing all those beloved books just brings me to tears.
