Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsI have not heard a word from my cousins in the City of Ruidoso, NM (FLASH FLOOD) UPDATE
UPDATE: Everybody including the animals are safe. That is all the info they want me to share at this point.
No email. No calls. We have left voice mail. They live near the river that usually looks like a creek.

Please keep us posted!

Same with the Red Cross.
Call local hospitals to see if they've been admitted.
Also try the Coroner's office.
I hope they are evacuated or perhaps at home but without power and phone service.

Hope your relatives are safe and dry.

Its just crushing living on edge, my house is up on a hill, but this town has hills with rivers at the bottom and its a disaster in the burn scar areas. All the mud is washing away the houses below and the racetrack is the lifeblood. Theyve hauled all the horses away again.
Ill hold your cousins in my heart Omaha Steve.
