4 days....
37,000 acres of surface area on the lake, levels have risen 8 feet in 4 days to nearly full pool, had to move our dock twice in the past 2 days. We've come from an all time low above sea level of 1053.14, to 1062 four days ago, to 1067.01 as of 10:30 PM Monday... and still rising. http://lanier.uslakes.info/Level.asp
Incredible weather system has dumped more rain than ever, it's broken ALL known and recorded flooding records. I guess it's a good thing the lake was still suffering nearly 10 feet below full pool coming out of a sever drought, because the people down stream would REALLY be hurting if the dam gates had to be opened.

Lake Erie can easily change at least six feet depending on which way the wind blows. The marina has floating docks, which is wonderful because you don't even have to adjust your lines.

No snipe, but we did shoot skeets. 10 year old nephew got a new single shop 10-4, and we all took a trip down memory lane getting ready for dove season.

The Detroit Tigers have a last-ditch effort tonight to make the playoffs in a tie-breaker game with the Minnesota Twins. Up until recently, the Tigers have been the lead in their division. But they've blown that lead and now must face the Twins in an away-game. A straw poll of the people at w*** this morning revealed that most of them felt that the Tigers will probably lose...a vote of no-confidence based on their inability to win games when they have needed the win.
To make things more dramatic, Miguel Cabrera, our first baseman, has been involved in a drunken domestic dispute. While no charges have been filed, it is distracting to the team and himself.

The Tigers put up a good fight, but it wasn't enough. It was an awsome game, going 12 innings and lasting almost five hours. Sure, I could complain about the officiating, but I won't.
The Twins deserved a well-earned victory, and good for them. They're in a much better position to defend the division. The Tigers would have gone nowhere in the playoffs. What a fantastic way to close out the old homer-dome with a dramatic win in a close game for the home team.
And I could second-guess the head coach and when he decides to pull a pitcher, but I'm not going to. The fact is that it has been a wonderful season for the Tigers, and I should rejoice in that.

It was a good game. But the Tigers had too many opportunities to win, and they just let it go. Typical Tigers fashion.

Yep, they had plenty of opportunities with men on base and just couldn't capitalize on it. At least they were hitting and it wasn't a blow-out.
And I think that Jackson just needs a rest. He'll be back in good form again next year. Hopefully Inge will get his knees straightened out (so to speak) and be back ready to play in the spring.

That does sound beautiful.
We're just about peak color right now. Usually by Halloween it's past-peak. Typically Halloween is cold and rainy, with leaves falling fast off the trees.

I can't wait.... gonna tell them all the stories of the "red eye coyote", "one armed Creek Indian ghost", and what ever else we can make up. Let the fire die down a little, then get up and say... have it kids! Uncle Jim and I are gonna sleep in the cabin on the beds, our old backs can't do tent sleeping anymore. 
Anyway, if you get down yonder this way holler at me. It'd be an honor to buy you a beer or two.
