    I didn't get back to GF/EGF until October, 1997. I was monitoring flood developments by the hour from my then-residence in Denver in April. The GF Herald heroically got a subscription started and sent to me April 17, the day before the Lincoln Park Dike was the first levee to experience failure, with evacuations following. Then ,the Herald building, as Neil pointed out, was destroyed in the Security Bldg. fire. Memories are not pleasant even though I was not in GF during the high-water period. Thanks.

      You mean like a riverboat with train smokestacks was on the flood of 1997 with Matthew Neal loading up the cows, hens, ducks, pigs, and skunks from his grandpa’s farm and Jason St. John loading up the alligators by the letter a, bears by the letter b, camels by the letter c, elephants by the letter e, fishes by the letter f, giraffes by the letter g, kookaburras by the letter k, monkeys by the letter m, tigers by the letter t, and hamsters’ names are Zippity by the letter z from the zoo on their riverboat to pretend it’s Noah’s ark?

      You mean like grand forks never flooded the earth again until 2022 for the blue uppercase letters WDAY in a white horizontal rectangle on the white uppercase word news in a black horizontal rectangle beside the white channel number 8 in a blue vertical rectangle in 1999 starting in June 1 1997?
