June 14th through 17th, 2012

After arriving at the lake, the first thing to do these days is to check the rain gauge. We got just under an inch of rain over the last two weeks.

If this page were being made on Monday, when it should have, there would be more than a few calls for rain peppered between every word. The rain finally hit the lake this week, 2.5 inches by Thursday afternoon. Huzzah! We still need more, but the lake should finish June with a gain. Lawns around the lake will need mowing before the end of June also. More rain please. The fish and the skiers were very active all weekend.


-Nemo checked, it's not the fuel line.
