Roger, Carla, Rakesh, and Norm, thanks for the nice words :-) Don't worry, Norm, due to the extreme drought we're having here we may not have a lake by the middle of summer! Right now it's 29ft below normal level. #2654545

PS My AC is OUT. It is damn hot here---after the AC man actually came here and "serviced" it, so I would like to be at the dam!!! #2654737

Thanks Marsha and Dennis! It goes without saying that I played with the tone a little, but really not that much. KK, this would definately cool you down. When they generate they release water from the bottom of the lake and it's so icy cold if you stand in it your feet turn blue and start to ache instantly! Great Trout fishing spot! #2655012
