My brother is a hydro geologist with the Army Corps of Engineers, he shared some great drone footage taken by a colleague of the aftermath. It'll give you an even bigger appreciation of how impressive something like the Missoula floods were.

I've been keeping up with this.

Water can be so powerful.

I have a 90 year-old client in Oroville. She has been evacuated twice.

When I first saw this clip the theme song to the Flintstones stuck in my head

I lived up in Gold Country in the Sierras not far from there and you can see the Malakoff Diggings where water canons took down entire mountains with flumes the Chinese built to funnel the water to the gold mining areas...looks like the moon around there..completely wiped out a whole section of Sierra foothills

You evacuate a building or place but not a person unless you mean you were going over there and giving her enemas.

I knew a gal down in Yuba City. Wonder what ever became of her?

[MarAzul]

Perhaps that place too.

Went to Hollywood, became a film star. Married into foreign royalty, lived in Paris and Monaco. Became an alcoholic. Her children turned against her, and she wound up in a nursing home in Birmingham, Alabama where she was eventually killed by a poorly trained nursing assistant that gave her an accidental overdose. Cremated, no service.

Wow! I had no idea you knew her.

She was my mother. She never told you, but when you left she was pregnant with your son.

May I call you Daddy?

Murdered by her kids for the inheritance.

Murdered by her kids for the inheritance.

No, her husband, the prince, had full control of the money, not her.

And to be clear, those two kids are my half-siblings, and I do not know them. I was given up for adoption before her Hollywood days - she was a bit too scattered for childcare even then, and I never saw her again or knew her name. It was only after her death, and the death of my adoptive parents, that I learned all this.
