However, I just talked to the Town Administrator about the water and
it seems there is a great deal of flooding in the back yards and
basements along Taylor.

The town is trying to get the portable pumping equipment from the
county out to that area.

I wonder how Edmonston is doing.  Guy, are you on this list?
