Higher River Forcast

Laurie and I went out to the farm this morning to get the drywall sheets out of the garage and to shut the shed door where the duck decoys are kept. We also threw the circuit breaker for the house. We too this from inside the house looking out the front window. The water had not gone over the driveway yet.









This is at the southwest corner of the farm at Silvers Rd this morming.










This a picture of the East Lake at 7:30 this morning.













This is the levee on Hwy C. looking north at 6:15 pm.






This is Silvers Rd at the southwest corner of the farm at 6:30 pm.







This evening Dave and I went by and it still hadn't gone over the levee. It is filling in at 80 Club and Dardene so the level will jump fast when they are full. It should be filled in by tomorrow. They have now raised the level to 1993 stage of 39.6 and cresting on 6-24. Hwy C and Silvers Rd. is quite busy. Some people are sandbagging and others are putting up earth levees around their houses. It is a frenzy around there. Here is a picture of the Other Bethmann's machine sheds and houses. We all moved our tractors up there because they are dry. Might have to move them.


We moved to Greens Bottom to plant there. No pictures of that.


I will post more pictures when I get them.
Soggy-Soggy Spring,
