    I am thinking 42, and they are saying 43 to pad it a bit just in case.
    42 is high enough!

                            Fargo city commission unanimously decided to shut down all majors roads in the city effective at midnight tonight. So that means we can't use them until further notice? I'm just trying to figure out if I'll get arrested driving to work in the morning.

                              I just wanted some bags that no one was using...I would much rather prefer the bags made go to the walls along the river, they need them more than I do really.

                                Take back roads. People are slowing down the trucks too much. 25th street was a joke all day because idiots would not yield to the trucks. I dont think anyone will be arrested going to work, just keep off the roads the trucks are on and you will be fine.

                                  I have 20 full bags in the back of my truck, Kirk. Call my phone at 10 and I should have it charged by then, We can meet up.

                                  We evacuated our house. Parker came through with a huge enclosed trailer and his truck and we moved everything but the living room furniture. We have relocated to my parents office building in the industrial park in moorhead. Myself and my father plan on staying with the house until they dike us in and we cannot get supplies in. We have 100 gallons of gas, a dewalt 12,000 watt generator and a 6 horse honda sump. I think we'll be the last ones whos dike is standing. If the dike starts to break, we will have the fire department fill our basement with freshwater and let the house go, but my dad is pretty adiment about us winning this thing.

                                  no race car? becuz homeowner...

                                          sure joel. guess we'll take them off your back. dont got a truck though to come get them though.

                                          a little reason of optimism..it appears as though its taken almost 10 hours to go up another foot from 38.8 to about 39.8...hopefully the rivers slowing down rising up.
