The Power of Water

There has been lots and lots of rain in MN over the past week or so. Last Thursday Northfield got hit really hard and they had lots of flooding at Carleton. I was not working so I did not get any pictures of the flooding but yesterday I took a few of the aftermath of it. The wood bridge is in the arb and was chained to a tree so it did not get pulled down stream. It was a huge mess in the area of the bridge, there is several trees that are down and mud everywhere. The big sink whole is on a road that is near the college. It is unbelievable the damage that running water can do. Northfield and most of southern MN is lucky that they did not have as much damage as they have in Duluth and the surrounding area.
