I assume you mean 1 foot on the walls where you are now Cow?

When I went thru the 95 debacle, the water was well over 4 ft up in the business i owned. In fact when i arrived in town that morning i had to canoe into it...in fact had a Calgary Herald photographer in the boat with me to document things. Of course this wasnt directly downtown either, and much close to the river.

I also recall that there was a culvert at the end of a street (name escapes me right now) that had a bridge over it to that little 9 hole golf course, and the whole bridge was gone...completely.

Water does SO much damage its hard to fathom until witnessed with your own eyes.
