Flooded KY Lake pics

[Deb]

We went down to check out the lake levels this evening.  Took a few pics....

This the ramp in front of our house...it's under all that water somewhere!

i guess i will have some fun going there if i could

i would pitch/flip in the tree/docks

Have any pics of what it normally looks like?  It would help to compare.

Isn't the lake closed now?  Or was?

Good to see the flag still above the water.

That could be symbolic.

It's open now except for about 2 miles closest to the d**n.

This is the dock in the first picture.

Not the best pics to compare but it'll give you a general idea...

Wow-

I remember some years ago the lake I am on flooded almost up to the house. We were kids at the time and catching fish off the back steps in what was a week ago the back yard.

I hope Hester's washed away.

I realize it's NOW open except for 2 miles of it.  But I understand that all of Kentucky and Barkley were closed last Thurs through the weekend, yes?  Just clarifying.

Thanks!

Nope, we were fishing legally.

Barkley was closed.

Why? That was a decent little ramp. You just temporarily forgot how to drive, dont be hatin' Burley. 

[Glenn]

I wasn't implying you were fishing illegally.  I was wondering whether or not your trip was cut short, that's all.

My how we like to add negative connotations to things that just aren't there.  :

Barkley was closed on Wednesday, Kentucky was closed from Mile 41.7 north to Paducah (mile 0).

Yes Glenn, ALL of both lake were closed.  First time in history.  It didn't stay closed too long.  They opened up KY from Kenlake down to Paris Landing on Thur.  They then opened it up more towards the north on Sat, I believe.

It has just been announced that all of both lakes are now open!!!!

I'm defensive.  It's my nature.

Suppose you could have asked one of us though....

I didn't think you were negative.  Actually, I think you're pretty positive.  You gave out all those hugs the other day.
