My daughter knew Chloe, Childress, one of the counselors who passed

My daughter wrote me, "God is so cool, in Chloe's mirror at home before all of this "

Moar tears

There are times like this when I think the Lord is leaving messages behind to comfort those grieving a lost love one, Powerful stuff…

The paper that they found while walking around the camp hit pretty hard too.

That was the other one I was thinking of, but couldn't find a link to the picture.

How does one find their way on a volunteer search team?
Right now what I'm seeing is the need for people with skills in search and recovery.


That's what they were saying before but Ingram Fire Department posted this last night. It seems a lot of the searching now is sorting through and clearing debris so more unskilled manpower is needed.


Quote:

If you are coming to assist with the search and have little or no experience, you will be placed with a team led by experienced personnel. For your safety and the safety of others, you must follow the instructions of the team leader at all times. If you are unable or unwilling to do so, we respectfully ask that you do not participate.

Further down in the comments Check-in time is at 7am in the morning for a briefing/meeting for all non-department volunteers

My parents left their home on the north fork yesterday for the first time to come to my house. They said even though they've seen lots of videos on Facebook and the news the devastation was still staggering. Debris and destruction everywhere. The roads there follow the river so it's constant.

Everything looks completely different. The river used to be surrounded by Cypress trees and those are gone. I noticed that on the Camp Mystic footage. You could see the camp from the road which wasn't really possible before. There was a hideous concrete wall that was put up right in the middle of Hunt that blocked the view of the river, luckily that was destroyed.

My mom was on the phone with a friend last night that lives near Waltonia. She said two of her neighbors houses were robbed sometime in the last two days.

Maybe this was already shared but hearing Pat Green's younger brother, his younger brother's wife, and their 2 kids are unaccounted for. I saw this on his wife's IG.

I heard from a buddy close to recovery efforts that the numbers may be WAYYYY higher than we have been told. The number of people that were out camping etc for the weekend and their families were unaware they were there.

there are so many piles out there right now that need a massive excavator to pull them apart. I agree with your buddy. Some of the areas are hard to reach as well.

One of the county officials said that at one of the first pressers….they didn't know who or how many they were looking for because they had no idea who or how many people were even there.

Edit to add: this is the Burgess family from Liberty (the one whose daughter was at CLH; and the dad was found first and the mom yesterday). John was PG's half brother.

If anyone was already in the market for a golf polo, Rhoback is donating 50% of sales from their Texas collection to relief efforts. They have maroon, orange, and purple state logos, plus ones for Dallas, Austin, Houston, San Antonio, and generic Texas. Per their email, they will be donating proceeds to the Kerr County Flood Relief Fund and the Camp Mystic Therapy Fund. Thought it was worth mentioning.

That pattern is very standard when flying an imaging package. We have software that tracks methane emissions monitoring flights and those are the kinds of patterns always flown by those planes.

trigger warning do not Google his name and find the stories published about it if you dont want to be absolutely wrecked for the day worse than it already was


I dont doubt you guys with kids are getting hit harder emotionally than those of us without, but I gotta tell you as someone who is just dreaming of having kids, its still really really not great.

Blakely's loss really hits hard. I just can't imagine. Her mother has had an incredible amount of loss and really needs all the prayers possible. Amazingly (and not surprisingly), her message was extremely positive and uplifting despite her uninamginable loss.

Kerr Co SD has said this in multiple PCs. Not only do we not know who was just camping with families or on private land, RV parks don't always have an accurate number of people in each RV

Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
