Just can't sleep right now...flooding waters

Never realized how much rain a person could actually get till tonite!! Holy cow!!! Mark left a little over an hour ago to head up to Platte Center. For those of you who aren't familiar with that town, it sits down in the valley, so lots of rain, very fast, equals flooding. So, Mark headed up to help one other guy get pc's and stuff up off the floor. He made it in the nick of time! He called about 10-15 minutes after getting there and was walking knee deep in water coming down Main Street.

Last I had heard from him, they were to be having sand bags brought up to them in Platte Center, so people could try protecting their homes and businesses as much as possible.

They just said on the news though, Platte Center is being evacuated, so I guess we'll see what happens.

I'll update more as I know what's going on. Keep the town in your prayers...Right now they can use all they can get!!
