The flood gates were closed, but water rose, streets flooded, cars washed away. Two people trapped in their cars in nearby streets drowned. People were still in shock about the sudden destruction when we arrived a week later, and we had a sudden downpour of 2" rain the first afternoon, more geysers in the streets, but the shop was ok.<br /><br />It was quite an adventure, but the new location is high and dry and we had a great event. Yes, the feathers were gorgeous!Diane Gaudynskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15164789327167957184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6348163707540787409.post-7970047989305384282011-08-14T11:27:10.807-05:002011-08-14T11:27:10.807-05:00So sorry to hear the quilt store had problems with...So sorry to hear the quilt store had problems with pipes, but glad to hear your class was a success.

They are a part of history in this landmark exhibit that started it all, and the auction raised a nice sum for further research. <br /><br />I love Galena! We are planning a vacation day there soon. The houses, history, shops are all amazing. You can tour the home of Ulysses S. Grant, total Victoriana. I think there might be a "ghost tour" as well. It's also fun to go there in the fall and into November when all the Christmas lights are up.Diane Gaudynskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15164789327167957184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6348163707540787409.post-8754252288497738642011-08-13T10:17:20.153-05:002011-08-13T10:17:20.153-05:00I love Galena - it is a beautiful place - lucky yo...I love Galena - it is a beautiful place - lucky you.
