Floods in my state.

[jontalbot]

As of right now many roads are closed down because of flooding along rivers. I personally cannot leave my town because the neighboring towns are closed. I mean, I could catch the highway to get into the city, but that would take 3 times as long.

The Red Cross is really helping people a lot around my state considering a lot of people live around lakes and rivers.

I live in New Hampshire (USA)...
I have some pictures of the damage on my blog: http://www.jontalbot.com

I'm really asking all of you if you could possibly donate more money to the red cross so that they can continue helping out the families who have lossed their homes in the past 5 days of non-stop raining and flooding.

More infomation about the floods can be found on the news website: http://www.wmur.com

Please. Donate to the red cross in NH http://www.redcrossmanchester.org/
It will really help a lot of people who don't have homes.

^ What Jon said

It's been a very difficult and trying past few days here in the beloved Granite State, for sure. Although we're personally going to make it through okie, there are many many homes and families (and pets) that have been displaced!
Whether this inspires you or not to consider donating to the N.H. Red Cross is fine and greatly appreciated one way or the other, but regardless ... do please keep these folks (and pupps) in your thoughts, prayers ... if you'd be so kind.

Thanks, friends!
See you soon,
-Jeff

That is unbelievable. If you wouldn't have told me that was New Hampshire I wouldn't have had a clue what state I was looking at. This years weather has been devestating to the econonomy. On a positive note, nobody is going to try and take you away from the computer for awhile :hehe:.

News flash:
The SUN just came out for a few minutes (it's been days upon days since we've last seen it) ... and just enough to give us all some reason for hope!

Please stay tuned ...

PS. A lone, brave local fireman in a boat just found my friend's neighbor's puppy (he's been missing since the weekend and he is cold, hungry, scared ... but A.L.I.V.E.)!
Yay!! :music: :hearts:

News Flash:::
Flood waters are receding now and most schools are open. I'm happy to report that all towns neighboring my own are open and I can drive freely. All thanks to the National Guard for doing what they could quickly and effectively.
