2013/04/18 Thursday: Meanwhile in Chicago


This is our car, sitting in a river in front of our house.  The rain was intense enough we were a little worried about our house flooding, and we don't even have a basement.  Many people with basements had serious water and sewage problems.  A couple miles downriver, people had to be rescued from their houses by boat.  I feel we have made another lucky escape by not having a basement.  If we did ever buy a house with a basement, I would insist on it having what they call an "overhead sewer."  The only people who had basements still dry had that in place.

Georgia is FINALLY recovered enough that we went to see Nick's mom and our friend Hillary and her girls.  Henry got sick after Georgia and was still better before she was.
