<BODY style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff">We lived in Hermiston and I recall snow-it did not happen often there and all of a sudden there was water everywhere because even the sand was frozen and no water could soak in as you mentioned. I recalled the bridge washout because one of the fatal car accidents involved some friends and acquaintances. Pretty easy to remember you are mortal when that happens.</BODY></HTML>
