Yeah, I got a question. My wife has kids in Grand Forks, Riverside, and we live in Fisher.
Could we go over there and get them?
No, everyone has been evacuated from there.
Well, they're still at home.
They won't be for long. The National Guard is going through and asking people to leave their houses.
On Riverside? That's by Simonsons, right?
Yep, yep. The dike is failing there.
Alright.
Okay.
But could we go over there and get them?
You wouldn't be allowed into the area. If they could get out of the area and meet you, yes you could.
Okay.
The bridge is still open.
It's still open?
Uh-huh.
Okay.
Okay.
Thanks.
Yep.
