No sun today......cold front coming

Well, we had a couple very nice warm sunny days......which helps your spirits and makes the flooding a bit more tolerable..... But it is cold and windy today and getting colder for the next few days. These pictures were taken the other day when the sun was shining on the "ocean" just on the east side of town. This is what I see from my front door......I could sell the house as "ocean view". The blue you see beyond the trees......yes, that is water......and no, it is not supposed to be there...

This one is looking to the south east where we would go on Hwy #81 to Fargo.....but not going that way for awhile. Those are also fields...black dirt fields, not blue water fields. And the news yesterday is there will be more water coming in a few days......from the south and from the west.....This isn't over yet.

The news on I-29 is not good.....they say that will be closed "indefinitely".....I am not sure exactly what that means......but it isn't good. I was thinking a few more days and that would open up.......but they have to see what damage the water has done to the roads. They can't build that diversion fast enough...we can't keep going through this every year.

We are fine here in town....our yard is drying ....just that soggy, dirty, spring grass...ick. BUT better than ducks in my front yard ! We can drive on the interstate going south out of Harwood...phew......I would hate to make the 7 mile trek to Fargo into about 50 miles if I had to do the detour.

Take care everyone !!!...........Stay safe.
