Thanks, Steve! Last summer they drained that specific area to allow for new plant life etc. to be stunted again. It worked out real nice. There is so many species of birds I lost count. lol

Jen, Our farm in Columbus was nailed by the Crawfish. Our place in Portage is alright. We have no flooding here thank god. I will say this the people outside Portage have not been spared what-so-ever. Our backroads are full of out of state license plates. Now mind the backroads around here see maybe 15-20 cars a day if that. Right now there is swaths of vehicles driving past wondering how to get to I-39 etc. It's a huge mess.
Thanks for the concerns.

Glad to hear you were not injured. Clean up is never real exciting. Hope all goes well.

OH -- i know.... i hear the TOP priority of the governor is to get that lake back in shape... with roughly ONE BILLION DOLLARS [in my worst Mike Myers imitation] in revenue for the state.... you betcha it'll be back to normal sooner than later.
