If you could help

(Today's pics on Flickr)
First off, in our last post I had mentioned about the Herron family in Somerdale that lost everything in a fire yesterday and because of the high water. Well, I had read on the now disabled comment section of the article that was posted on The Times Reporter website that some fire departments were going to accept clothing donations for the family. On our way out of Zoar, we stopped in the fire station and after a couple phone calls, we found out what sizes the family could use:
Boy 31-32 mens medium
Womens size 7 medium
Womens size 3-4 small to medium
Boys 8 regular
Little girls 3T-4T
Mom is a size 12 womens large
Dad is a 36-34 Extra large
As of this time, I don't know of any one spot where donations will be accepted, but when I do, I'll post it.

In other news, there is a lot going on over at the Zoar Levee today. A long line of trucks have been seen hauling in rocks all day to the site. Upon further investigation we found that they are trying to build a small road to get heavy equipment to the bottom of the levee wall on the backside just down from the pump house. It also appears that the water level may be leveling out. Hopefully we won't get any more rain this week, but it's not looking too good towards the end of the week.
