Texas river flood leaves at least 13 dead and 20 children missing; camp evacuated by helicopter

Just so heartbreaking...They renovated a few years ago, but didn't move build or move cabins to higher ground... They had just passed an inspection... https://nypost.com/2025/07/10/us-ne...-known-flood-zone-despite-recent-5m-overhaul/.
Things will begin to change now...not only in Texas, but in any high risk zones..At costs never imagined...
They will install a siren system but the damage has already been done. Maybe it will save others. The Guadalupe is just to beautiful to not enjoy normally. People will eventually return to it. I have rafted and tubed the Guadalupe several times in the New Braunfels and Gurene Texas area. It is beautiful.

He had his wife cook them, the cheapskate…at a posh yacht club.
I find there are two reasons the people who are comfortably rich spend money. We are not talking about the nouveau riche, or the fake rich, trying to spend money to act rich. We are talking about the people who are comfortable being wealthy. They spend money for either quality or convenience. It does not have to be a lot of either, just a nominal amount of either.

So a rich person would have no trouble getting eggs at Publix, assuming it is more convenient than other supermarkets, and that they do not want some special Whole Foods free range Omega something eggs.

You missed the point completely, NRW.

"He had his wife cook them, the cheapskate…at a posh yacht club."

Why is this so difficult for you to understand?

Here, allow me to assist you...when people go to posh yacht clubs, it is, in part, so that the esposa does not have to cook.

See how easy that was and do you now understand that the receptionist is a stone cheapskate?

The "convenience" for wealthy people is nonsense...





Fool’s Gold Loaf Sandwich Recipe

In fact, Elvis once had his private jet fly him over 1,000 miles to indulge his craving! That craving was for the Fool's Gold Loaf, Elvis' favorite sandwich. The Fool's Gold Loaf was served by the Colorado Mine Company, a restaurant in Denver, Colorado.

It will be defunct and rotted out by the time they see another flood like this. The last time was in 1932, at 30.6 feet crest.

The region has been seeing an increase in rainfall the last 4 or so years. They are due for another drought period.
