Neighbors were kind in lending the wet-vac but no gentleman came to the rescue to see if I needed help. Another thing that was different when we were growing up... a woman alone was always offered help by a man willing to roll up his sleeves.

Water was up to the ceiling in the basement, but luckily nothing reached the first floor. Most of the Denville merchants are back open this weekend or will be early next week, and I'm sure will appreciate the business, if people are in the position to give it! But I have to say having grown up in Denville it was exceedingly hard to see it all under water. Count your blessings is indeed an understatement.Katie Valentihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16040743640376325526noreply@blogger.com
