The weather here is lovely.
In two weeks, the Mississippi River flooding is supposed to reach us. However, there are plans to open the Morganza spillway and the Bonnet Carre spillway, to lessen its impact upon Baton Rouge and New Orleans (respectively). These spillways divert the Mississippi excess down the Atchafalaya basin, so instead of flooding New Orleans some other, smaller towns will be flooded. Hardly seems fair but that is what they do.
I am a little nervous about flooding after reading about what is happening to our north, but F. says it will not affect us. Since he has lived here all of his life, he has a pretty good handle on these things.
Pre Katrina(1979-2005) that happened to us only one time. Parked on HWY 90 - untied the pirgoue from the power pole and paddled 400 ft down the drive to the front porch steps - for 3 wks.
heh heh heh - waaay above the wide Missouri(on the MO side) now - Kansas may flood across the river here. Post Katrina picked a house on a hill - .
