The water at the Lazy River Campground is beginning to recede. Yesterday at 11:30 am it was up the word campground. Today at 8:15 am, you could read next right under it.
I was able to get that dramatic shot of Downing's. (As soon as the image is approved, I will post it here.) The water is definitely higher, but the waves weren't as bad today.
The bandstand's deck is now under water.
On our way out to the island, we noticed that the dock at the Crow's Nest, which used to be called the Owl's Nest, is gone.
The remaining boards are flopping around. For those not familiar with the island, it is on The Broads on the Alton end of the island.
The lake wasn't near as rough as yesterday, but it is still very bad. (That was between 9:00 am - 11:00 am.)
Thankfully the job I did tying the panels is holding up.
Hopefully the docks will too! When standing on it, you get knocked around pretty good. The water level has risen more than two inches since yesterday afternoon and it is still going up.
Parker Marine's rack storage is now IN the lake! (I wonder if they need a permit for in the lake rack storage? Yikes!
)
The weather forecast for the weekend looks like there might be more rain.
That's just what we need.
I hope the lake level can go down by then.
(We sure wish we had closed the camp early this year!)
