| Norma Boeckler is getting help from friends, family, and neighbors. |
Norma Boeckler, our artist-in-residence, wrote to me about recovering from the flood caused by the Edenville dam breaking.
County residents are suing the state for causing the flood.
The basement was wrecked but the flood did not reach the upstairs. Her son was there to help, and neighbors showed up as well. Another church member lives in Midland and is in touch with Norma.
Mennonites showed up to haul the trash away. Three neighbors' homes were destroyed, so it was a close call.
The dam failure from space.

| The basement of this beautiful library was destroyed, just after its multi-million dollar renovation from the last flood was completed. The library, including the children's section, was my Harvard and Yale in gardening. They had everything, from all the Rodale books to Don't Call It Dirt! |
