My vintage Esso T-shirt came in the mail yesterday. Soft cotton for the win.

After digesting this for a few days, there is so much Kerr County (and with respect to the city, Kerrville) got wrong both in long term and short term to exacerbate this. It’s not to take any responsibility off of the camps. But given Kerr County’s unique risk when compared to other counties, they, in short and long term, took every shortcut afforded to them right down to posting the flood risk on Facebook as opposed to actually, you know, calling the camps. The camps don’t have cell service but they have land lines and radios and internet. The lack of cell service being a cause is a red herring. The campers don’t have access, which is the point. But if the county isn’t warning them, it’s not doing its job. People can shit on the Eastlands, but La Junta, Honey Creek, and Heart of the Hills were all caught off guard. They just were “luckier” to have been a little further down river and/or not have campers in session. And as we know HoH lost its leader, too. The camps have liability here, certainly. But the county did nothing to extend its resources and awareness of the situation to the campers and tourists in the area. The comparison to the Jaws mayor isn’t far off.

I just watched the highlights of the US Cup QF game. That was quite a match. Stuver doing Stuver things to keep us in it. We still can't score a goal from free play to save our lives. Hopefully BV not hurt too badly.

I didn’t want to say it, but, yeah. Kerr County judge should commit career seppuku on behalf of him and, presumably, his predecessors.
-
Yeah…. At the government level this lands pretty squarely on Kerr County with a hefty bit of complacency on the state. And Kerr county majority will continue to vote for those that failed them because you know why.

We saw this in a text chain. Was waiting for confirmation. Really sad. He taught my daughter how to fish (better).

The link in this twitter post is hella sketchy. Do not click through.

We ate at 1011 Bistro in Kerrville last week the night before picking up our daughter. Imagine that place is no more.

My understanding (and mind you this is via a mom’s text chain, but a text chain that is very well connected with Mystic) is that they are one of many in the area just waiting, including non-Mystic. If I find out I will post an update.

My wife is on a mom’s thread for my daughter’s cabin from last Mystic term. Things are coming in fast and furious, but apparently a cluster of four girls has been spotted, is temporarily safe, and is waiting to get rescued from high ground.

My wife just showed me a picture of two girls around 8 sitting in a helicopter that got airlifted out. It was daytime. I am not posting it. But there are active rescues still happening it appears.

Mystic Guadalupe is like 18 girls per cabin - at least my daughter’s cabin this summer. There really isn’t high ground on that campsite to speak of. We toured Stewart for my son last week and the river sits far below the campsite there. We also looked at La Junta same day and I see how that could get overrun. Guess I know where we are sending him next summer.

The Twins cabins are the youngest as someone said upthread.

I just picked up my daughter from Mystic Guadalupe last week. This is fucking terrible.

Disappointed as I liked the ending as a finale. But I’ll watch it. I feel like Carmy’s story is done
