i havn't been on in 2 days and this is why

I also have not been on the past 2 days because of major flooding. We got hammered hard here in Northwestern Lancaster County Pennsylvania. I spent over 30 hours at the firehouse (volunteer department) and only got a little over an hour and a half of sleep. Over the span of 24 hours we ran in excess of 200 calls, and had 17 swift water rescues... the following link is the biggest one we had.

6 people trapped on the bridge, but it doesn't show the other 2 we got off before we could no longer reach them.

Here is another video from the opposite side of the creek...
