[MBZ] The river
The river flooding warning earlier today said river was expected to drop below flood stage early Saturday morning. I expect that means we might be able to get out after that. There is currently another large storm headed this way and now the warning says river is expected to rise tomorrow afternoon and now won’t drop below flood stage until Wednesday. So if that is the case I will be on Okie Acres Island for a while longer.

[MBZ] The River
Curley, And from what I've read, the The River is still trying to go back to Texas. The Corp of Eng. keeps fighting it, but I imagine someday The River will win, especially if the New Madrid fault goes again as a big quake. Mother Nature can always out do any human activities.
