Flood Aftermath

     Driving into one of Minot's flood ravaged neighborhoods today, I could only stare in disbelief at the carnage around me. Houses shifted off of their foundations, piles of debris that were once someones life, but now were carelessly dumped into stinking, moldy piles along the street. Dishwashers, refrigerators, furniture, flooring and even fireplaces make up the landscape all over Minot. The whole place looks like a war zone. I saw three decks hung up on the guardrail on 16th St. , they just detached and floated off until they hung up on something.
 I only wish there was something I could do to help! Logically, we know its "just stuff", but sadly, stuff translates into money when you have to replace it... Hopefully later in the week, I will have pictures to post here. Meanwhile,please keep the city of Minot in your prayers!
