## Resource

On May 23, 2015, a catastrophic storm hit the Blanco River, unleashing a 40-foot wall of water that devastated Wimberley. Thirteen lives were lost, and the once-lush landscape was left in ruins, with century-old trees uprooted and homes destroyed. The event, likened to a bombing, serves as a stark reminder of natures raw power and the devastating impact of natural disasters.
