Monday the highway department is doing a one-time pick up of flood debris including ruined appliances. I have to get mine up to the highway this weekend, and help is on the way.









This afternoon, 20 college students affiliated with a church are coming to help me get it done.

I didn't start out looking for this many people, but the organizers were caught off-guard by the news that all these students were showing up at one time. I've certainly got the real estate for them to cover, but we are hampered by my bad road that isn't drivable: they are going to have to pile most of it along my lane for pick up later, and we'll have to take it to the landfill ourselves when our road is fixed next spring, unless the highway department maintains a drop-off point. That's fine. The worst of it will get to the highway in time for Monday's event.
