This is the main street in Dierks. This little town has been my home for the past 75 years minus a few while away at college. Some like the big cities and bright lights but I love this little quiet place with its snail pace life. When trouble hits everyone is ready to come to the rescue of those in trouble. Today, tornado sirens went off and people scurried to their storm shelters (storm cellars, storm house, etc.). Parents were taking their children from school as tornadoes sirens screamed and then the flood hit. Several people were rescued from their flooded homes by brave young men. Cows were being swept away by the high waters and baby calves were in the most danger. Many came to their rescue with a helping hand. It seems that in times like this the true heroes seem to surface ready to help with little thought to their own safety. Many other towns in AR were not as fortunate as our little town. There was so much more destruction in other areas of AR. ~Todd

This is the beautiful sun set following all of the excitement in our little town. ~Greg*I steal my photos from FaceBook because I was stuck in my storm shelter being entertained by my two goofy granddaughters, the dog and Suzanne. Brett only makes an appearance when his truck starts bouncing around and he feels like it might be time...
