    Think About It - roads are closed in Banff, you may not be travelling too far! And here you thought you'd escape the FMM rains. :)

    Not in the Banff area until Sunday evening.....if I can get there.

    Wow Simon! Looks serious! If close to the water.....I dunno.....I wouldn't even sleep w/one eye open, I'd leave for a period of time. Be safe!

    The destructive power of water is terrifying.

    This is normally a little stream / creek:

    I can't imagine what it must be like to see your house destroyed:

    We have 15 gallons of water, plenty of bread, milk, eggs, frozen fruit and tinned food so we should be Ok. I'm expecting a boil-water advisory sometime soon.

    As a bonus I just yesterday bought beer, chips and chocolate so we even have all the luxury-necessities too.

    Sheesh Simon, hope you stay out of harm's way. I am fortunate never to have been flooded, and I live on a hill so am unlikely to be any time soon, but I wouldn't wish it on anyone. Stay safe.
