Holy Rushing Water, Batman!

The April 2013 flood has been wild. I usually put my boat in by that little tree in the middle, and scrape bottom to boot. Normally it's kind of a bubbly happy stream along this stretch that  you can wade in. Fishermen usually stand just below the dam with hip waders. Not today! Check out the video, which I added appropriate music to, just for grins. Though I kind of like just the sound of rushing water too. You can still hear the water.

And It Only Took Me About 15 years...

I wasn't going to post anything about this, because it seems a little narcissistic, but Odie sent me such a sweet little note, I decided to document it.

"Shout out for my sister Paula. She texted me thur night with the news! You battled thru aches n pains, injuries and even surgery. You took some time off for rehab and eventually you felt comfortable with and trusted your knee enough to get back in there and finish what you started. So congratulations Paula, you earned it!!!"
