That terrifies me.
Water is more destructive and merciless than people realize.
I hope you and yours were all okay.
We were far enough away from river thank you. On Christmas day that same year I went down for a walk along the river. It was a sunny, bright day. The air was crystal clear and the river was iced over. Totally silent, except for the snap, crackle and pop from the river ice. Beautiful, but be warned. I looked up, and saw in the tree branches over my head a chest of drawers and someone’s clothes dryer. There’s a lot of energy in that river.
