Denham Springs is an island. The number of people that had to leave and quick is unimaginable even to us that have endured many floods. They/We held up or heads, helped our neighbors and got out in the most organized way and being calm all the while knowing that we lost everything. Love your neighbor as I have loved you.

Businesses were not looted. No roaming gangs were in sight. You won’t see any of them screaming about the Government ought to do this, that and then more as was seen around the world by the residents of New Orleans during Katrina.

Kudos to you, and I’m sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine losing everything I own.

My son lives near Denham Springs, and he has about two feet of water. In my neck of the wood we have no flooding yet, but the ground is soaked. It has rained every day this week. The flooding is fairly localized, not like the great flood of 1973. Now that was the worst flood of my life, all of Cajun country was flooded, and the Mississippi River nearly changed its course through the Atchafalaya River Basin. I'm praying for rain to stop.
