[fire and forget]

I'm in Paradise, about as safe from floodwater as possible in Butte County. Had no idea you were up here. I landed here from So Cal eight years ago and started a family. Crazy story. Please let me know if I can help. We have a lot of property up here and a crew that maintains it. I'd sure like to get together with you, compare notes, as we have big plans for the area. As well as on the larger stage where we've always seen eye-to-eye. I'm going to D.C. in two weeks with a full agenda. Hope you and yours are all safe and well! Please FReepmail me when you have the opportunity. My email is sean@newportfed.com. I am a '98 FReeper, name underwent a few changes ending with this right after 9/11.

You guys are the boots on the ground in case Trump sends disaster relief funds directly to the places impacted, and by passes the CA government that is planning to secede anyhow.
My prayers are that Trump helps your community directly.

I am being put up in Sacramento, so I am good. My Yuba City home has flood insurance protection so I would take a hit but not lose my butt if the house got flooded. I would be entitled to SOMETHING after my very large deductible.

Meanwhile, the levees protecting Yuba City just got rebuilt so we should have adequate flood protection, as long as a wall of water doesn’t overtop our levees. Personally, I think that is impossible just because the levees on the Marysville side of Feather River are cotton candy and silk screen for all intents and purposes. The water would just blow their levees away, making it difficult to stack enough water to overtop our levees.

That is not to say I don’t wish I lived in Paradise right now, or Loma Rica, or Grass Valley or Nevada City or...

Meh. Wathca gonna do? shrug.

Obama would be glad to know I am a refugee relocated to Sacramento.
