Due to a forest fire in June heavy rains washed burned timber,ashes and water from the mountain down onto this Flagstaff neighborhood. It is where my grandson Tristan lives.
In fact this video runs right past Tristan's house. Fortunately they were not at home.My daughter Amanda and SIL Jeff live a few miles away and have sandbagged their home.
Sadly however a 12 y/o girl was washed away to her death in this storm.
We pray for her family.
I saw this on the news and thought of you. Thank goodness your family is ok.
ReplyDeleteScary stuff....I'm glad your grandson is okay. Did his home sustain a lot of damage? Clean up after a flood is monumental. I still remember helping an elderly friend clean up his home after a flood back in my teens. Well wishes to your grandson and his family.
ReplyDeleteOh, God. I'm so sorry if your grandson's home was harmed. Relieved your family is safe, but, oh, that little girl...
ReplyDeleteGemma...how awful! OMG. Thank goodness they were okay...but I am sorry about the little girl... that is s o sad.
ReplyDeleteThis is very scary! I'd be so worried too.
ReplyDeleteGlad you family is safe.
What sad news; my heart goes out to that girl's family.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear your family is OK. But I sure feel for the little girls family. Love Hugs and Blessings
