KERR COUNTY — Joan Connor, 82, didn’t expect another horrific flood to happen again in her lifetime. But two-and-a-half weeks ago, she found herself hurrying home from a Colorado trip with her 99-year-old husband to the house they’d just rebuilt after last summer’s flood nearly drowned them.
The floodwaters soaked the rug under the new grand piano Connor just bought to replace the one she lost. It totaled her Chrysler Pacifica that took the place of her old truck. It muddied her husband’s tools they’d salvaged last year.
