Our place is on a mountain, so should be fine. I've seen reports of major flooding in Monroe and surrounding counties. From the reports I've seen, we could probably look down and see the road below us flooded, as we're right above Indian Creek. Major flooding here in KY, too, all around, but we're high enough here that were fine.

Glad to hear it, T-Bob!

Glad to hear your place is ok Bob.
