Dam!
With all the rainfall we've had lately TableRock Lake is at one of it's highest levels ever. The dam is flowing more water then ever (flooding lots of homes on Lake TaneyComo below the dam). Several miles down Taneycomo there is another dam, Powersite, and below that is Bull Shoals lake. Bull Shoals is about 40 feet above power pool levels now. Not sure if you can see it, but water is actually coming over the flood gates, but just from waves. So we took a drive to the TR dam this morning to get a few pictures. The place was packed so we couldn't get real good shots. It was a fight to get a few spots to stop. But we managed a few so so's. Hope you like them.

Ive seen the dam at Table Rock. All the guys fishing right below it.
Thought is was real intersting to see the signs that say alarm will sound when dam opens up the flood gates. I imaginged all the guys fishing in their waders trying to run out of there real fast when the alarm starts to sound.
My bud lives in Battlefield. Says he only had standing water in his back yard, but nothing made it to his house.

Thanks!
The news says over 341,000 gallons per second. Seems like I heard 384,000 also. A bunch. The Beaver Dam by Eureka Springs is said to be releasing 694,000 gallons per second right now!
And next weekend I'll be at the Hoover Dam. Without the Vette. If the airlines can get their act together by then.
