Closing a fair would have been better than losing a lake for a year or more. This is a crying shame, knowing personally how many cool old CC's are on that lake! I was supposed to meet Josh up there a week from Monday to ski, but obviously that's not happening. Sounds like I may be going up to help in the relief efforts!

Opening it with a controlled flow would have been much better than the breach. |

Sounds like your state made a pretty serious mistake. Once it starts failing....you can't stop it. Tim |

Mine is safe in the driveway. The dam has collapsed, and around 70 boats have gone down. A couple dozen CC's have gone.

Our lake (Lake Delhi) is flooding! The state would not let the dam open up because of a fair 20 miles down river. Now the water may wash out the road around the dam! Lake Delhi is around 7 miles long, 200yds wide. Home to over 70 CC's. Most of which are in danger. I already know my uncle's 97 is gone, my grandmas house is submerged to the roof. My dad's is on the high ground so not in any danger. I will post pics when I get back from the lake.
