@jhv It would be so nice if they just flooded out the Boswell Co. land. but of course they're going to flood the houses instead probably . . . :(
@MichaelTBacon The water will go where it wants to, but probably down.
@jhv Eh, it sounds like it's all pretty shallow and they have a whole system of levees they spent decades building.
Apparently Boswell is the largest privately held farm in the world.
