Thinking "well I need to buy a boat", but first seeing some boat dock repairs were in order. Went down one July morning to find my forms under 6 feet of water. Thinking "well that's strange" so I postponed the work. Next good rainfall,...same thing.. Never in the 25 years I had familiarity with the property, did the water ever come up that much in the summertime. <br /> <br />Remembering bits and pieces she had told me about the work, back when the corps was in here, I started to do a little info digging, and came upon the local flood district, who was all giddy with "Yes isn't it just WONDERFUL?" And I'm like "NO, not really" As if it even mattered..[censored]
