5:47 am
think we lost last year he. we lost about 35 feet i was close you were close 35 feet of ground in just about 3 months while we were measuring. it is fast and that means the river is 35 feet closer to the town and then left and it was here before so you guys think that the river is going yes . it's one thing to say the river is going to move you but this prompted a whole whole bunch of things this village is completely divided i mean there's just no way around you know to travel councils families don't talk to each other just all kinds of issues that have popped up. prompted by this river here moving in
