What Can Water Do?

Well, it's great for drinking!

Keeps me hydrated throughout the day.

I also like to shower using it.

Washes dirt & grime away nicely.

Also helps with the brushing of teeth.

And let's not forget swimming!

Swimming pools are a staple of summer around here!

BUT

Water can do more...

Much MUCH more.

You know that awesome new pool you got?

The one you couldn't wait to use?

Yea, no need for it really.

Not now that there's a lake in your yard.

What's that?

You wanted to catch some pre-season practice at LP Field?

Not today.

A nice cruise down the Cumberland at sunset on the General Jackson?

Something tells me it'll be a while.
OH you're hungry!
For cheese dip.
You mean that awesome little Mexican Restaurant
I think they're already closed.

Well, we were supposed to go to your game tonight but

All Games Have Been Cancelled

The water that has dumped on the Middle Tennessee area

the past few days was/is

No Joke.

So many people have had so much heartache

Rescue searches are still being conducted

People are still stranded

Some refusing to leave their homes!

I didn't think our area could take it again!

The image below is supposed to be our interstate.

A main vessel in and out of Nashville

One I've taken many many times.
Can you even imagine the sheer terror these people felt?

My heart aches for them.
The images are saddening.

People have lost loved ones

Cars have been destroyed

Their homes, their place of safety

The place you wanna go to when you've had the worst day ever

Is un-inhabitable.

Mother nature has had her way with us

and she doesn't mess around.

Lives will continue

There may always be a hole but

Hearts will heal

Houses will be re-built

Things will be re-bought

Cars will be replaced

Streets will be repaved

And businesses will eventually carry on *hopefully*

Our area will be OK

And we'll all still be here til the

Cows Come Home
