as Minot floods (PICS)


Erik Anderson, an evacuated resident of Minot, N.D., plays various Bach compositions on his cello in the parking lot of the Longfellow Elementary School near the Souris River in Minot Saturday, June 25, 2011. Anderson said playing this music is the core of who he is, so it just feel right. The Souris River neared its crest Saturday in Minot, where city officials hoped to ride out the high water without losing more than the thousands of homes already damaged by flooding
:thumbsup: good for him :thumbsup:


The head of a lawn deer remains above the flood waters from the Souris River in an evacuated western neighborhood of Minot, N.D. Friday, June 24, 2011. About one-fourth of the city's 40,000 residents have evacuated their homes.

3. I have two nieces in Minot. The live above the danger level, so
they haven't had to evacuate. One of them is on the board of the local animal shelter, they are housing over 500 pets who had to be dropped off there while their owners evacuated. They need everything, in terms of money and supplies. Here is their website, if anyone cares to help:
