it was pretty much the same kind of day here. Beautiful sunny and just the right temperature. Then it started raining, a lot. And no one knew that tomorrow the entire town would be turned on its head. For those of you who don't know, The Johnstown Flood of 1889 was the worst "Natural Disaster" before Hurricane Katrina. 2209 people perished at the hands of negligent wealthy business men who owned The Southfork Hunting and Fishing Club. A wall of water 40 feet high rushed down a narrow valley and then covered the town in a matter of minutes. Johnstown has been prone to flooding and it flooded again in 1936 and then again in 1977. The flood in 1977 took out a mobile home court that my grandfather built 9 years before. They lost 33 trailers but no lives. My pap waded through waist deep water to pull the last people out. They also saved a few trailers by putting chains around them and ripping them out to higher ground. I live on a hill just above where the trailer court was and the Conemaugh River that caused all these floods
