As the water recedes, the damage begins to reveal itself. Moreover, there are new problems that begin to manifest themselves as well. The road to recovery is just beginning and it will be a long one. This topic is a broad one and I could spend every hour of every day for months to create content that would fully explain and conceptualize the scale. This video is just a start. I went back to some locations that I shot on 3/15 and shot some aftermath on 3/20.
One issue covered in this video is near Beemer, NE. My untrained eye didn't see it at first, but once I talked to a local excavating crew, the problem was immense.
In the video, I made the comment that my drone took some damage at a different location. Luckily, I was able to borrow this one to keep the content going. The story behind the downed drone is somewhat amusing, but its low priority. I'll cover it later on. Subscribe and you'll know when it get posted. See what I did there? A little cliffhanger there.
Also, I made a paypal "tip" link. A few folks mentioned in comments that I should do this professionally. Maybe. For now, I like freelancing and doing some independent journalism on my own. You can send me a tip here:
Call it gallon of gas or a cup of coffee.
I feel funny asking for money. On the other hand, it does make it easier to produce more. That's a longer discussion for later. Either way, your viewership provides some support as well and I appreciate you. Thank you.
More importantly though, flood relief donations. If you had to choose between one or the other, definitely donate to flood relief. I appreciate you watching, but people need our help more.

Another idea, call a church in a community you know was affected and asked what they need. Churches have been the rallying point for a lot of donations.
Thanks for all the compliments everyone. It's been motivating.
