hey jennifer b.!!

we are ok and my parents just have a muddy mess but the surrounding

towns (harmony, phillipsburg, and easton, pa) werent so lucky!!!

the delaware river crested yesterdayat 33.45ft above normal for

easton , which is 11 1/2ft abouve flood stage and 3ft higher than

the flood in 1996. it is the 2nd worst flood in the area, the flood

of 1955 was the #1. a house in harmony was washed away off the

foundation and sent floating down the delaware. it crashed into the

easton-phillipsburg free bridge!!! i took some pics with my hubbies

work digatal camera and as soon as he down loads them i will show
