Thought the evac was manditory
I left High River at aprox. 12:00pm Thursday to have a bachelor schindig in Calgary that afternoon - so I narrowly missed their crap-show (and subsequently have only recently been clued into just how bad it got down there);
My half of Riverbend had the power cut;
All or Riverbend was under evacuation, but only about one street was a mandatory evacuation - so I went to bed on Thursday with power, knowing that (none of) Riverbend was under mandatory evac;
I woke up to no power, and finding out that a part of Riverbend went to a mandatory evac over night.
To the best of my knowledge, they cut power around 5am Friday morning, and power was turned back on at 11:45pm Friday night.
I drove around some closed streets and saw the the river flowing under Glenmore - it was astonishing(!);
I also made it to that hill which overlooks the Stampede grounds and saw the grounds under water(!!!)...

For the past several years I have made it down there for my great-aunts birthday (she'll be 101 this year), but this is in the first week of July, and with the wedding ect, I m looking to ve maxed on holiday time...
So I'd still like to head down - at this time I'm guessing it won't happen.
