| The ruins of the infamous dam that caused the Austin Flood |
Remember playing with dominos? We all probably at some point in our lives made a long line of neatly stacked dominoes. If you did everything right, once you toppled that first domino the entire line would follow suit in a spectacular chain reaction. If the alignment was off even by a little bit, the line would come to a halt. At this point, you could either start over, or simply topple the next domino to continue the effect. Regardless, in the end there was quite a mess to clean up. However, for a small town in the heart of the Pennsylvania Wilds, the mess that resulted from a domino chain of disaster that occurred over a century ago changed the community forever.
