Iowa Under Water

As bad as things are getting in Iowa City, Cedar Rapids is even worse. The entire downtown area has been completely demolished. I was watching videos of people driving big boats around the downtown streets. No doubt there will be a Hurricane Katrina style clean up in Cedar Rapids in the coming months.

I really feel for the businesses and people just up the road there and hope that things will continue to recede.

We have stopped by a friend's house on the west side of town to get a quick shower. Travel back to the east side of Iowa City is not currently advised.
