I just drove from Airdrie to MacKenzie Towne without much issue, though as mentioned, Deerfoot is a mess. You'll be able to get there, but depending on when you arrive, you may have to be patient with the roads.

Millarville Racetrack entrance road has been cut in half . . . . . Farmers Market this weekend is cancelled. Was just over there.

These 100 year floods sure happen a lot.

Calgary has been bumped from the top story on CNN by Michael Jackson's final 60 days.

05 wasn't a hundred year flood so this is really the first one in quite a while. Some earleir posted that 05 was just a 20 year flood or something like that.

I know I'm late, but the police telling my entire community to evacuate seems like a good reason to leave.

Bow was only 1 in 18 and elbow was less than a 1 in 30 IIRC.

amazing how many people are ignoring the advice not to go into downtown to work.
Do they get that they will have to get back out later. Just causing more problems for police.

Well my boss put out a "business as usual" e-mail.

Im still in bed. The Mayor telling me to stay home works for me, but I sympathize for those that have employers that are dumb.
