Ideas With Attitude - The floods of the past
In my early life growing up in Chehalis, we lived on Prindle Street where it flooded every few years. But in all those years water never rose high enough to flood our home.
I remember water gushing under our house leaving all manner of debris after the flood waters subsided. My sister Sarah put on hip boots and carried me through the water to high ground so that I could walk to school. My little friend Percy would begin building a raft and then would come by for me and we would raft up and down our flooded street.
