John McGinnis of Grayson County felt a calling to hitch his bass boat to the back of his truck and drive 18 hours down to Houston to help out with the flood relief. Now he's being called a hero. McGinnis drew attention after ABC 13 in Houston tracked him down for an interview on live television as he motored through the flood looking for anyone in need. "There's a lot of good people down here," McGinnis told ABC 13. "I've never seen so much love in a place in my life." The video has been viewed over one million times on Facebook.
