Don’t we all wish it would quit raining? We now even have a wet floor at the library. When this wet spring started we had several people come looking for pictures from the last time the souris river etc flooded. So make sure you are taking pictures of everything taking place so we can preserve the event in the archives. If you have copies of pictures you are willing to donate – great. But we are also willing to scan pictures and return originals as well.
