The night before floodwaters crept up her street in Frankfort.

Former school teacher Sally Davis was having a cookout with her neighbors.

She says they never thought the water from the Kentucky River would end up in their homes.

At 90 years old, Sally says the lesson she's sharing now is to count your blessings, not the things that were lost.

Well, we thought it had never gotten up and at par on our fridge, and the night before we had had a cookout and sat outside watching the water come up.

Never drain.

It was going to get up.

So we hadn't really prepared that we moved some stuff, but we weren't really.

And about 3:00 for that morning, I got up, went out on the porch, and it was at my front flip.

It really didn't get in the front door, but the basement and it came up through the vents.

Luckily, the thing that lives across the street from me.

So he called and they sent one of the big A rubber rafts to they can pull up from that front.

No.

And they put it on all last year and had lifted me and my dog into that boat.

Other than the flooding impact had, people that I know, people that don't know they're having real problems there.

I feel very lucky if people in Frankfort had really stepped up for help, and I was fortunate in that I could have somebody to come and clean up a lot of people sitting there with nothing and nobody unless somebody just came to help them.

It's a very sad feeling when our country is in such a mess.

And so that was my big concern.

Are we going to be able to get them?

Are they going to give bonds?

Are they going to find a place for these people to go?

So it wasn't so much the flood as it was flood impact is still had on the people of the community that can't get help.

You know, if it wasn't for that, people have been so wonderful to help me that I told someone yes, ask them what a wonderful world that we still do have some people that care about others and not just what's happening to them.

It's not a that there's a lot of people who have never say the care of that here and there, and they can't take that.

But so I said, I have no complaints whatsoever.

I'm just happy that I'm here to tell them what the.

Well, Davis says she will be moving back to her hometown of Louisa while repairs are being made on the house where she lives in Frankfort,
