Water Water everywhere

As everyone knows we have had our share of rain 15+ inches in June in Pryor area. It rained almost every day.
As of last night July 3rd the lake was up 12-1/2 feet above normal, Grand Lake is up 6+ feet and Fort Gibson is up over 19 feet. So as all this water flows south and in Fort Gibson where 3 river merge, well Van Buren Arkansas is really getting the effect of all the rain from southern Kansas and Oklahoma. None of the rivers or lakes have crested yet and the rain hasn't stopped either.

By the time it dries out enough to move, you need a bailer. Have to sneak a mow in here and there between rains.

The Lake is really messing up the water front property. They can all fish from their decks. Our friends Randy and Therese have water in their basement.
Mosquito's are terrible too.

We really like living on top of the hill. We can enjoy the lake and the view and won't have the cleanup.
