Ya talked to a Mcdonalds store in Fargo this morning (I work for "corp" mcdonalds) anyways and she said she lived right by the river and is kicking her self for not having flood insurance. :icon_scratch: Why would you not have flood insurance if you lived by the river in this area, kinda dumb if you ask me -

My mustang = goner more than likely

Went out to a coworkers place yesterday to help raise his dike up another 2 or 3 feet, he didn't expect he'd need it. Today he called and said water is up on the dike and is at least a foot higher than levels in 97. He lives on the wild rice south of Fargo about 5 miles.
Sunday

Yesterday (tree in middle here is tree on right in above picture)

It was up another half foot or so horizontally from the time I took that last picture to the time we left.
