Upstream in the town of Blanco\, the river ran roughshod over its banks through Blanco State Park and reached the U.S. 281 bridge. In Wimberley\, the river crested at 40 feet - 27 feet above flood stage. When the river reached San Marcos further downstream\, it swept into houses and up over Interstate 35\, closing the highway for several hours Sunday morning. "As home builders\, we have the knowledge and skill to help these folks rebuild their homes and their lives. As an association\, we also have the ability to come together collectively to raise the funds needed to push this effort forward\; and as members of this community\, it is our duty and honor to do so\," says Walt Elias\, HBA of Greater Austin president.
