Sorry for the delay in the August Electric bills. With me having to travel to Florida for business and the crap that we dealt with all month long just put me behind. They just went out now. I'll try to get back on track with September electric Bills Around the 20th of October like normal.

Update:

I will be traveling over the next few days for work starting today and will not be able to watch what's happening here at camp. Please stay weather aware over the next few days to protect your personal property.

It seems like today could be the possible worst of it over the next 3-4 days but the last 6-7 weeks has also proven it doesn't give a s**t what anyone thinks... especially this guy. 🤦‍♂️😉

Cheers!

Update:

The river has come up decently overnight and with the forecasted continued rains this morning, there is definitely concern. Please watch the weather in this area to protect your personal property.

As if we don't have enough weather fatigue this year already, we have yet another opportunity over the next 24 hours (and maybe 3-4 days) for potential flooding.

Stay aware and protect your property!!

Update:

Good morning! Just want to provide a quick update on how things are at the camp. For the most part, the river is back to normal. It will still recede over the next 5 to 6 days but to the eye, it's back to normal. Things are drying out nicely but we have some things that need cleaned up and a tile that may need to be unplugged. We have some catching up to do on mowing and I'll probably be spraying first of next week. I'll be working through the weekend getting areas cleaned up where logs and different debris have been "relocated" into camp.

We have a couple of food events coming up on back-to-back weekends in september. I've already posted about the brunch on the 19th of September. Please coordinate with Molly if you are going to attend.

Be on the lookout for the next post in a couple of days where I'll be giving details about the annual chicken wing / french fry event. It will be scheduled for September 12th.

Cheers!

Update:

The river receded very, very quickly yesterday and is inside the banks in most spots. I expect complete recession inside banks by days end (Barring some fluke weather incident). Hopefully, we get some decent sunshine today to dry things out. There is definitely clean up to be done, so we'll be focused on that.

Cheers!!

River Update:

As I am sure most of you are aware. there was an incredible storm that hammered Logan and Shelby counties yesterday causing flash flooding. Fortunately most campers were already pulled because of last week's rain but the remaining campers were able to be pulled out without damage.

At this point, it certainly seems we have crested at camp and hopefully will begin receding soon. Sidney has been receding since early morning hours. So hopefully, we can get relief quickly. 🤞

Barring any crazy new weather, I will provide updates at the end of each day on progress.

I can't thank those enough who are always there to help. It's amazing what you do to help others out. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. 🙏❤️

Cheers to drying out from the rain and wettin' up with drinks. 🍻
