River on Fire!

This was the Ouachita River a few days ago:



This is the Ouachita River today:



Some more pics:

The back road. You'll be happy to know I didn't try to drive across.







Cooks parking lot. There is a bridge across the creek to the Staff House (building in the background). Kind of a moot point right now



Ouachita River out of its banks.



Water has backed up almost to the staff house. Notice the propane tank almost under water. The bridge across the creek is completely covered.

Man, do I miss this…

Out and About

Here are some scenes from around the office. Included are some incredibly witty/stupid comments, free of charge:

Some camper left his stove behind. Hope he comes and gets it soon.

I'll give anyone $50 to go down the ski coaster within the next 2 weeks. That, of course, is about $21 Canadian.

Don't think I haven't been tempted to rev this baby up and see what it can do.



I threw this little project up last week. It's not finished yet but I think it looks pretty good.



The Waterfront, sans water.







Things are starting to wake up after a long winter's nap. Spring is almost upon us, and I can't wait.

The Ouachita is raging after all the snow and rain. Well, "raging" might be a bit strong. "Flowing swiftly"...how's that?

What you can't see is how cold and delicious this is.  I love Dr. Pepper!
