            Rising super slow.

            Wait for tomorrow when it warms up and the snow up there starts to melt.

                              Joel's house is safe. I just spoke with him on the phone about a half hour ago. His neighbor's dike failed and they are pulling sandbags and slowly letting it fill to the contingency dike in the street. Joel and his dad sandbagged around their house so they are protected from the neighbor. They are basically playing the waiting game now.

                                They did a dry run with shutting down the interstate from Jamestown today. I'm sure they were testing how long it would take to completely clear it and reroute it. Theres no reason they closed it for as short as they did, only to reopen it. If we evac, it will be both sides of the road.

                                At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

                                  My dad has the water down now. Still holding steady in Heritage Hills. Been that way since this am. Good sign for Fargo. Not sure if the other house is still making it.

                                        All the **rumors **and false information going around is getting a little ridiculous. That is what is making this 'chaos.'
