This reminded me of Aug. ‘87. I lost my house in Elmhurst in that flood.

We were in Elmhurst as well in '87, and we even took some photos of the flooding of the viaduct there. I probably have them filed away somewhere, but I'm sure you remember, the water was almost completely up to the bridge. I'm sorry you lost your house.

The grandson of the woman involved in the crash, just came to our door returning our chairs and cooler. A very nice young man, he said his grandma is fine. I told him he was from very sturdy stock and he could look forward to that in the future.
