I'm not sure if I can figure out how to get across the river, so it's not likely I will be able to make it.

The more I am looking at it clear creak runs thru Tiffin and it raised 8 foot last night I will probably not make it either

I'm pretty sure I heard correctly that 380 is closing, so I won't be going now, for sure. Next MINI event for me is the Lincoln Highway Festival on the 28th.

Sounds like a semi-official cancellation of this event is in order -- although I don't want to discourage anyone if they're committed to showing up on their own.

The likelihood is that the majority of our group will be otherwise engaged with flood-related matters, or else would have to go to extremes to find a safe and suitable route to get there.

I'm with the Dean-meister -- the festival in Clarence is my next event. Since we're missing this weekend, I hope we get a really good showing on the 28th.

Stay safe, everyone!

As with a few others, we're going to stick closer to home this weekend and watch the water levels. With any luck the numbers should be going down today. We hope to meet up with everyone some time in the future.

For those in Eastern Iowa, I'm glad you're safe!

OK well so the first Ice Cream day was a bust with all of the flooding how would everyone feel about July 12th?

The roads are returning to normal and it would be a great time to get together and finalize plans for those heading to MTTS
