Maybe the houses need to be moved to higher ground.I am not posting photos of this because we have all seen many flood photos lately. Some people have t

To upload photos or videos to your blog or comment is easy, but may take a while to discover on your own. I prefer to sometimes write in my text before the image so it will naturally be above the image. When you are ready for the image click the little camera icon in the little utility bar just below ENTRY it is in the image below with blue square around it. The ADD AN IMAGE window will then pop up.It usually works better to click the [Choose File] just below Upload an image.
