Friday was flood day in Northfield. Others have covered the freak storm and flash flooding in great detail, so here I’ll just post a short clip of the river flowing well above flood stage, as seen from the Second Street Bridge in Northfield, MN.

The day of aquatic emergency ended on campus with a fantastic hit by the Bad Plus, my favorite jazz band (and probably my favorite rock band, too). I’ve raved about these guys before. Here are a few seconds of one of their jams, featuring the inimitable drummer, Dave King. I could watch this cat all day.
