A simple on-line journal of some of the events of our retirement. Not necessarily the most memorable or significant happenings - but those which remind us of our journey (and for which we had a camera at hand and remembered to use!)

Higher Water
We have heard reports that the releases from Bull Shoals dam are as heavy as they are going to be this go-around. We thought we had witnessed the peak levels yesterday, but returned today to see just what forces are released with 6 generators and 17 floodgates open. We joined a parade of folks that were walking across the bridge to capture images. Many houses, docks, businesses have been trashed - we see entire large trees floating by from time to time - pretty powerful stuff!
