Many Texans have a connection to Camp Mystic, the all-girls Christian camp that was destroyed in the July 4th Guadalupe River floods.
Isabel Howard, a camper there in the late '90s, remembered that "on the drive up here, I was remembering the song that we used to sing in the dining hall that was like complete gibberish. And it just made me smile, because it was so funny. It was called the wiggalo and it just, the song was just about like jumping up and down and turning in a circle and asking our friends to join in and sing it with us ..."
Howard said she was shocked to see the pictures of the Camp Mystic dining room completely inundated: "It was really hard to see the pictures of the dining hall. No one would have ever imagined that water would get up there. I thought when I first found out that someone had had a bad dream or something, I didn't think it was real."
She stopped by the makeshift memorial on Kerrville's Water Street to pay respects to those who lost their lives and to show gratitude to those who rescued children in the July 4th floods.
The search and recovery mission continues 11 days later.
