    LukeyRobertson in High River

    As some of you know, Southern Alberta has been going through a rough time of late. Flood waters are Epic. Our own LukeyRobertson resides in High River, and the town has been evacuated. I'm hoping his kilts survived
    My thoughts are with him and his family, and of course the residents of that community as they try and rebuild from this ordeal.
    All the best David.

    We have just been watching it on the news, the floods look horrendous. Our thoughts are with LR and all those involved.

    The people of Alberta and especially Calgary are in my thoughts today.

    I just got an email from David. He has been evacuated to Calgary, and is staying with family. They are not allowed back to High River for the time being. The church he ministers at is severely damaged., that has shocked him up a bit.
    Water is certainly a powerful thing.
    The key here is that he and his family are safe. Unfortunately the media has reported three deaths in the area and one person missing.
    Xmarks have a number of members in the area that have been affected. I wish them well.

    What a weekend here in Southern Alberta. Our house and those of our children in Calgary and Lethbridge are fine, but we "had" a cottage at a place called Hidden Valley Golf Resort, down stream of Calgary on the Siksika Nation.
    Everything there has been devastated.
