    Calgary is flooding and flooding badly. People need to stay home, stay off the roads. And for goodness sake stay away from the rivers, the ground is unstable. Getting the photo is not worth your life!

    There was a scene on the news this morning showing what looked like a house being swept along by the flood under a bridge with the roof being torn off.

    How awful. Please stay safe, Albertans!

    Oh, Q of P. I know how that goes. I wish you could send the rain to the Chicago area. Even though it has been very rainy this spring, we are still behind because last year was so dry. Please be safe. (((HUGS)))
