Report from Lesterville

Pam and I made a quick trip back to Lesterville so I could attend the Audit Committee meeting of the Reynolds County Educational Enrichment Fund. The only damage we saw was the stairs down to the river at Black River Lodge were damaged. Probably the last 20 feet were gone. Peola Road is drivable, but had a lot of damage down near Riversedge Campground. Not sure what the river will look like at Wilderness once the water goes down. This was not a really big flood like 93 but still the biggest in a number of years. I talked to one neighbor that said a lot more sand had been deposited than in earlier floods.

On a personal note we learned while we were on our way to Lesterville that Pam and I will be proud grandparents of our first grandson this August.
