The river is supposed to crest tomorrow sometime at around a foot higher than it is now. We are praying that we can continue to win the fight in the basement where the sewer keeps trying to back up. We are using as little water as possible as well as a portable outhouse we rented just for this "special" occasion! Ha! Hopefully this will be enough to get us through with no damage to the basement at all. That would certainly be something to praise the Lord for! I (Sheryll) just keep praying for God's mercy on us. It seems He has granted it so far, we just trust it continues. Thanks so much for all of your prayers for us. Although we are getting a little weary now, we have had peace throughout the flood situation and are so very thankful that we have not had it any worse than we have. We realize how blessed we are and we attribute that to the prayers of our friends and family on our behalf!
