I once spent some time along the Blanco River. In fact it was near the site of where all of the houses were flooded near the bridge with the pipe railings.

A very peaceful place in the winter and early spring, which last about a week there. Then you move indoors and flip on the A/C and look at the river through large windows.

I can easily see why someone would want to live there year round, and I don't think this flood will cause anyone who survived to move away.

After all, tornados have torn through Moore, OK, at least three times during the past ten years and people still want to live there.

And for those of you not from the area.... It is not pronounced 'Blank-o'. It is pronounced 'Blanc-o', like the Mont Blanc pen. At least that's the way the natives pronounce it.

The house with the drive port being propped up on one 4x4 with all the tire tracks in the mud was built by a guy who used to work with my father, we stopped by and saw it almost completed around may 1980.
it was not on the river bank, and whoever owns it now fared much better.
