Day 12 - flood rehab

Rolled up this morning and the big old dirty fridges were gone!!! And there was much rejoicing!!!  That was after visiting the Scout Hall and Silverland where there is still much to do.

Spent the day alone digging out corners and edging so I'm ready for the hoe.  It'll look a lot better once I have all the silt gone.   Every day, hour by hour, things become a little more 'normal'.  Also got the phone working again thanks to the boys from Shaw.  Both of them out from Vancouver Island and they've worked seven days a week since June 26, part of it helping people clear out basements and such starting in Calgary, then High River.  Obviously doing what they are trained to do as well.  No charge for new equipment and required service.  I guess all that money I've been spending on a cable bill all these years finally went towards something worthwhile.  

Back to work tomorrow.  Heal up my hands and rest my back - get back in the groove.  For now, a cool drink and soft chair.
