In Nashville, the Cumberland River is slowly receding. But the damage is done -- homes are ruined and the city is a mess.
Families are trying to clean up and salvage anything they can. "You just pick up a box, you just pick an item and say, 'Is it savable?'" says Woody Hall.
But so much of it is not. Hall and his family are trying to cope with the damage. Treasured items, including things from his childhood, are now destroyed.
"My son's playhouse, we watched it float away," he says. "My grandfather, myself, him, built it when he was little kid. It's just traumatizing."
Across this city, the reality of the damage is just beginning to sink in.
This morning the Cumberland River crested at a 70-year high -- twelve feet above flood stage.
"You know you see it on TV all the time, but you never expect to live it," says Hall.
