Flood waters

This place marks the spot where in the year 2000 friendships were planted.
Playgroups met here before MOPS was a thing. We were just a frazzled group of moms with young children. Lonely for connection with someone who could form a sentence with meaning.
This place marks the spot where volunteers young and old rooted trees and built river viewing platforms.
This place marks the spot where the Mountain Laurel Festival brought people, food and fun together. And in the 50th year, a carnival sprouted here.
This place marks the spot where the first movie under the stars cultivated a field of dreams for a small town on the move.
This place marks the spot where Andy shared songs of jelly and Abe discovered sandy joy.
This place marks the spot where music lifted spirits and feet and birthday parties marked countless trips around the sun.
This place marks the spot where a river ran over its banks and prompted an unscheduled parade on a late December day.
