Ike's Surge

Isn't that always the truth. That goes for health, auto, home, flood, you name it- insurance. Whenever there's a claim, there's always a fight and their first answer seems to always be 'No'.

Get this---a storm surge and a flood are not the same thing?????The tractor was under water---sounds like the storm surge caused the flood but it is still a flood!!!!!!!!! We pay for floods not storm surges???? go figure! And they wonder why 2 + 2= 1 in Louisiana---- your 2 beers and my two beers given to a Cajun equals one drunk registered voter!!!! Pure Science---we run that experiment often at election time!!!

Dont know for sure how long the tractor was under the water. We had to go north. But I would figure it was probably at least two days. Building a mound sounds like a good idea, but I also guess we should jack our homes up also. This has never happend before so we are all in kind of a shock. I thank all of you for the advice and concern. Flood insurance is a joke, if you you dont have it you get help a lot quicker. Nieghbors already have money sent to there checking acounts, while we have to qauble with adjusters.
