Here's the aftermath of the "Great Flood of 2011"
First pic is looking south into Nebraska from the Missouri River boat ramp at Lake Manawa, the shelter at the left was originally between the flag and the house. Next three are of houses that are next to the river, between it and the levee, you can see how high the river got and some of the silt that was left when it finally receeded. They're on Gifford Road here in Council Bluffs and were evacuated within the first week of the "Event".

That brings back bad memories.  I hope everybody came through safely!

I haven't heard if anyone will be moving back into that area.
I know I wouldn't, just not worth the headache.
