Reply to comment by RoxxieMuzic in Missing 5-year-old boy was pulled from mother's arms in California floodwater by hellomondays

During monsoon season in AZ, those mass SMS texts tell you to not drive and stay home when the heavy rains come out of nowhere. Scary when you're already on the highway and the rains dump on you out of the blue.

Don't I know, but I made a note of the washes that were on my regular routes, including the two on my driveway that made the house unapproachable. I pulled off to a local coffee shop or other distraction until it was clear.

I will never forget the 4 or 5 children from one family that were lost in 2004 (may have been 2005), in New River. That one really broke my heart, it was totally unnecessary and avoidable.

sad af. RIP.

Every year I've been here during the season, there's always some poor families that get caught.
