2007 FLOOD PHOTOS

The 2007 Flood in Vernonia was an incredible display of Mother Nature's power. But Mother Nature's power could not hold a candle to the incredible power of the volunteer efforts and how the community came together to help their neighbors and strangers alike. Though I am still trying to get photos taken during the flood event itself I wanted to post these photos taken of the aftermath and the response to help our community. Thank you to Clark McGaugh of the Independent for these photos.
