GORDON KING/Yakima Herald-Republic (L-R) Howard Summerville, Nelson Bernier and Al Bernier return from checking their homes on South Rushmore Road in Selah on Jan. 9, 2009. "No water was in 'em," said Summerville. "They're good - they're kind of on high spots." They evacuated their homes about 6 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 8 as the nearby Yakima River continued to rise enough to flood their land.
