Sandbagging at the FargoDome - Part 2

Three million is a big number! But according to officials that is the number of sandbags that have been made in Fargo over the course of the past seven days. It is hard to even fathom that many sandbags--but having been a part of the process at the FargoDome, it's not surprising that it was accomplished. The two primary bagging facilities have been operating around-the-clock for the past week! Sand bagging operations have now stopped (as of 6:30PM Friday evening) and we are now in "watch and respond" mode until the water recedes.

I posted earlier about this same topic--but that was before I had time to download some additional pictures from my phone. There are also some pictures here, here, and here from the local newspaper.

It made for some good memories but I, for one, am glad we are on the other side of it all.
