I can't even imagine what it would be like to have your shop flooded. I have been in business for 25 years now, something like that would be devastating.

I was going to volunteer, through the Red Cross or other organizations (I put in three applications so far), two weeks of my time. I started thinking and figured it would be better if I donated those two weeks to helping one or two of my fellow shop owners get their shop back in shape.

Just think if it was your shop!!! If we could get 4 or 5 guys to these shops for a week or two, I am sure it would be more than greatly appreciated and we could get some of these shops back up and rolling fairly quickly.

That way they can start taking care of flooded vehicles... did I just say that??? Better yet they can start taking care of their regular customers and employees.

It will likely be the first couple of weeks next month when I head down, hopefully we can get some organization by then and help these guys out. I know if this happened to me, it would be a nothing short of a small miracle to have people come help me out!!!

Is anyone else interested in doing the same? It would be great if we could get some volunteers and some shops signed up.
