One Last Flood Link


This photo shows the blizzard created by a blackhawk just after it dropped off Governor Hoeven and a squad of national guard soldiers. Both photos were taken last week on the Missouri River ice jam, immediately south of Bismarck.

I'll make you guys suffer this last link of the North Dakota flood coverage, this from Boston.com outlet. If the major Missouri River dams above Bismarck bust, well, then you may get one more really frantic blog followed by an indefinite period of silence from mft. But what the heck, eh?

Gripping story. But why, oh why, do you have to hang in there? Is this a macho thing, or by sheer necessity?

Well, with my somewhat slight acquaintance with that terrain, Tecumseh, in the short term there really is no place to go--especially in a blizzard.
If you meant to ask MFT why he has been living as a High Plains Drifter, to begin with, he'll have to speak for himself.

I recall MFT was making some noises at some point about moving East. After these adventures, maybe renewed consideration should be given to the thought.

What do they do in Boston when ecological strikes? Something like this?
