I couldn't help but laugh at the thankyou card. With that much destruction humor is needed, but it certainly is unexpected to get delivered BY the destruction. And the mail thing is just a special kind of, well, special. And wow did the water get high. I'm more thankful of my city's flood control efforts every time I hear and see what a flood has done elsewhere (flood in 82 made the city go "oh HELL no are we going through THIS again" and then went all ape-shit army Corp of engineers daring the rivers to even THINK of doing that again--and it's worked fairly well).
Sorry you had to go through such, and I hope you manage to salvage some stuff amongst all the debris.
