Ed, the town is Hibbing, MN up the road... That makes him a Ranger... Be gentle to your friend... his whole family is under tremondus stress right now... I live 23 miles away from Duluth... 35 miles north of me the city of Floodwood is also under water and 35 miles south Moose lake is under water. Everything is underwater I just posted a pic of my house... the river is not receding very fast, I can't even get near my house.. No ones ever seen this before
