For the month, Boulder canyon has been closed and only residents and work trucks were allowed up. The National Guards were posted at the mouth of the canyon checking identification every time you went past. With very quick effort, the road opened on Sunday October 6th, 2013.
On the 6th, our amazing neighbors Greg and Dolores opened up their home for a potluck for the neighbors. Everyone told their stories and let each other know what they needed help with. Most of the families are living back in their homes, most with some kind of backup for water such as a cistern. Most houses in the canyon collect water from the creek and seepage from the ground and goes through a filter to the well. Our well sat on the other side of the creek and all the piping was ripped apart when the water came rushing through. So running water in the canyon is scarce.
It was great to gather with the neighborhood and make sure everyone was okay and see what they need help with.
