After all the water had risen to our waist we knew we had to escape. So we went to the attic to stay safe and dry. Gramps had left an ax there 50 years ago when he went into the attic to hide when Hurican Betsy attacked. So when water had filled the attic Dad,Mom,Me,& Cleo all went on the roof. We all huddled together to keep warm from the rapid winds and rain.
