The Flood

Dave’s notes

Major flooding here in Maryland yesterday. Historic Ellicott City is being described as ‘destroyed’, with two dead. We don’t have to be that literal in our interpretation of ‘the flood’, and we certainly don’t have to be biblical, but surely when the waters rise there are stories to be told.

See you in the comments! – DB
