Someone Who's Going To Have A Worse Weekend Than You


Caskets that had been unearthed by the surging Missouri River. The Missouri broke a levee on July 12, 1993, and scoured the cemetery, digging a deep hole and sending caskets bobbing downstream. The flood ruined 793 of the cemetery’s 1,576 graves, and searchers never confirmed recovering about 150 of them.

I remember when this happened...I saw it on the news, when I was a kid, and it scarred me. Shows up in my writing sometimes...
