I just checked the dock this morning and based upon my very-unofficial marker, as of 11:00 this morning, we are at or slightly above full lake.

Quickly looking at the historical data from the Dam Bureau, we are likely to have the highest lake level for this time of year since 1982 with all the rain we are getting. I realize that we need rain to live, but this is getting to be too much.

Any tropical system that brings rain in the next five weeks will likely cause floods. I am not saying we will have a visit from a tropical system, but it is that time of the year and the lake now is full and it keeps raining.

Got to get back to work on the new ark!
