Although I was born in New Brunswick, I consider Calgary, Alberta to be my childhood home. I was there from age 5 until age 19, except for the year I spent in Denver, so we're talking 13 years in the city during my school years.

Well, right now, my childhood home is under water.

A flood the likes never seen before has hit southern Alberta, causing the evacuation of more than 100,000 people, and some brave souls have taken to Facebook to post pics of what the city looks like, and its ... devastated.

I still have friends in Calgary, my sister in law's family lives there, and recently I was able to reconnect to one of my high school friends, so this feels personal.

If you are of a praying persuasion, please pray for the people of Calgary and southern Alberta.
