Okay, right now the EOC is, their lines are down.
We're trying to get those, they had to relocate because they had to evacuate where they were currently at.
Yeah, do you have their phone numbers?
It's not up yet.
What's happening is they're going to be using the same number, and right now it's rolling over to our number,
so that's why you get law enforcement.
Oh, okay.
And they're supposed to have it up in the next 20 minutes to a half hour,
so if you could just call back then at the same number, it should be up.
Okay, can you tell me what number, because I just hit auto dial, and I'm so distracted.
The water's coming up on the street behind us.
I have it here.
Let's see, 746, where'd it go?
Got a bunch of papers here.
685.
They're putting it right in front of my house, so I'm on the riverside.
Where do you live at, Lily?
I need this load of sand quickly.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, I don't know all of this.
The only other number I got, you might want to try it, is 775.
Okay, 8, yeah, 8661.
8661.
Yeah, I don't know if that's going to get through, but that's the only other number I've got for sandbagging, so.
Well, thank you very much.
You've been very helpful.
We try.
Thank you.
Yep, bye-bye.
