So sorry to hear about your sister's place. Did they have time to get the important papers and whatnot out before the water came too high?
Yeah, just. The harder part was getting the old man a couple doors down to leave his house. I was talking to one of their neighbors who is a fireman. He got a little stress relief a couple days into it when a local shady businessman tried to torch a building he's been trying to sell for a couple years. The first responder happened to be a fire investigator and saw a trail of flames up the steps. The neighbor got to tear into the building with some big-ass hydraulic apparatus which kinda made his day.
