I lived in Burlington for 2 years...and worked at the Hacienda and then Behm's Truck Stop (is it still open?). Miss 'em both and the customers. What I wouldn't give to be back home in Minot. I can't stand the big city....too claustrophobic! Too many weirdo's here..... Reply...
snoose, it was the Carney Dairy farm. Take care friend. Reply...
Born in Minot, raised in Burlington, graduated, went to Bismarck State College, graduated, moved back to Minot, got married, moved to Rural Route Burlington. Reply...
Hi Rick was the farm a dairy farm?or was that farther west.I worked on the broadway dike and by 3street N.E.,Also Ipulled dead trees and old car bodies out of the river before the flood.Nice yaking with you gentlemen Reply...
Thanks snoose. People need to realize its fourty years later! Things have changed dramatically! Reply...
snoose, my wifes home was north of the water treatment plant, they had the large ring dike around the neighbor hood. I walked that dike every night after my mothers house was flooded. My home was north of the CP tracks and to the East. In fact my grandfathers farm was east down 2nd Ave SW. Reply...
I worked the 69 flood ,16 st north of water treatment plant was as high as the Street signs,as for flooding this year I doubt it ,since 69 there have been 2 dams built in Canada for flood control and also Lake Darling is very low at this time, so it will hold back a lot of water Minot cleaned the river going through town also.Local runoff could be a problem with more snow and a fast melt. Reply...
I think the problem scenario would be very warm weather coupled with a large amount of rain - on top of our large amount of snow. Reply...
By the way I should say it isn't that I don't think it will flood, it is just too early too tell. Yes, I think we are ready for possible flooding. Reply...
Why Rick? Well lets look at the facts.......Last year at this time we were in one of the worst droughts ever in North Dakota. Just because you have lots of of snow doesn't mean it will flood. It has more to do with how it melts. When it melts the weather conditions at the time. You will be surprised starting tomorrow how much of the snow is actually going to melt now. Minot could flood to day if a ice dam was to start. All I am saying is it is much too early to be freaking out about flooding, we have a lot of winter to go through before we even get close to crossing that bridge. Reply...
Plus thats only 2 inches of snow on his test...................Add all the snow up in a square mile area,thats alot of water!!!! Logic.............it will flood! Reply...
I well tell you moron this is the must snow we have had in over 40 years. And why are you such a smart As_ on everything? Reply...
Well good for the Corp. in 69. How bad was the flooding in Minot in the spring of 98? Reply...
By the way the Corps came in January of 69. Reply...
No,it is really dangerous and life taking. Lisa11 <a href=http://www.talkinghomeloans.com>Home Loans</a> Reply...

It is never to early to start thinking about flooding. In 69 the Armt Corps came to Minot and warned the City Council about flooding in the spring and they were laughed at. So don't tell me its to early. Reply...
