I lost two guns in a flood this morning.

Any ammo float out with them? Exactly where did they they enter the stream?

Actually yes. Not sure what caliber but I did lose at least one ammo can. It wasn't full obviously.
If anyone finds them, I'll pay a reward. They are sentimental value mostly. I bought them for my two children.

I would be walking that creek bank, boy to get hung up in something. Better find them and oil them before they rust.

I wish I could. But I'm new to the area and I would be trespassing on peoples land. The way the water was flowing and the volume, they are nowhere near here anymore.

I wish my 350 pound mother in law would float away. Are you interested in renting out your basement ?

Absolutely. I'll PM you next time it starts raining real hard. We'll wheel her right on in.

I recently moved to Blairsville on a creek that turned into a raging river this morning. I had a few things in the basement including 2 new Colt 6920s with consecutive serial numbers I bought years ago. They were in a hard waterproof case that floated away while I was rescuing my 2 cars.
If anyone happens to find them, I’ll pay a reward. I’m crying.

I think I saw your area from the old Blue Ridge highway. Hopefully they turn up. We had a bunch of trees come down. Spent all day clearing and still have several more to go.

As often happens, there goes my hot green tea down the front of my bluejeans before even 9am. Thanks a lot.

Hopefully some decent people find them and return them to you. I heard about the rifles from my wife's grandparents so you never know when someone will find them.

Funny you say this. I made a post on the Blairsville Facebook page and two utility companies that came out had heard about my guns floating away.
I’m optimistic.

Hopefully your next post of the story about the recovery!
