Rising at dawn yesterday, Paul Roberts climbed into a skid loader to start clearing out the muddy remnants of a storm that less than 12 hours earlier had caused several feet of floodwater to wash through his White Hall neighborhood in northern Baltimore County. "It's like a slurry," said Roberts, 40. "With this flood, the mud is particularly bad. I've never seen it like this before." By afternoon, he had managed to clear enough mud to free two of his cars - including a restored 1976 MG that had a water line up to the top of its windows - from the parking lot adjacent to the Gunpowder Falls State Park Trail and Department of Natural Resources' maintenance building where he works.

I'm disappointed that former governorRobert L. Ehrlich Jr.will be writing a column in The Baltimore Sun, a newspaper that skewered him unmercifully when he was in office ("Ehrlich column to run in The Sun," Jan. 22). What The Sun did to Governor Ehrlich, including taking him to court, is unforgivable. I'm displeased in his decision to accept this offer as it reeks of self-promotion. Mr. Ehrlich says his first two columns will be on his decision to write for the paper and then a tribute to Ron Smith.

Glenn and Victoria Hasenfus had a choice. If they wanted to move to the rural environment of northern Baltimore County, they would have to decide what was more important: a house large enough for their family or a nice piece of land. Because the couple worked in real estate, they knew that finding both would be difficult. So when they came upon a 1,404-square-foot home in White Hall during spring last year, their predictions were confirmed. The 3-acre parcel included a rolling landscape that sat next to a protected land trust of 300 acres.
