This is a picture of "Tommy Douglas".  I pass by this statue everyday on my way to work.  He stands facing Highway 13 from the North Side of the road and in the middle of total chaos one day, someone must have felt sorry for him so they dressed him up in this life jacket.  The water at this point was getting dangerously close to him - and as I post pictures later on, you'll see what I'm talking about.  This picture was taken on June 21st, 2011 - about 4 days after the BIG rain where we received up to 5 inches of rain in one night.  Thats the rain that did the most damage.
