you perhaps have heard, nashville and middle tennessee has experienced a devastating flood this past weekend. the water is still rising, the death toll is still rising, much of town is underwater. my dear friend linda sue, who i blogged about in this post (second from the right), has lost EVERYTHING but her husband and child.
