Bummer, dude

Tomorrow is Father's Day. It's also my brother-in-law's birthday. Will he be celebrating both by being out camping with the family unit as planned? No. He will be spending it doing what the National Guard does - helping deal with the flooding (in fact, on the way to the same family event today both he and I had to make a detour from our planned route due to a highway closure because of flooding).

At least we here in Missouri are not getting anything nearly as bad as in Iowa, Wisconsin and Indiana. My heart and prayers go out to all the people affected by the flooding in those states and other areas.

But still, while it's not a tragedy, I do still feel sorry for my brother-in-law, who doesn't get to spend enough time with his family as it is. Sorry about that, Matt! Hang in there - two more years until retirement!
