Well for those that don't me I spend allot of time as of late at folks place since my father is in his late 60's and is 7 years into early onset Alzheimer's which is neither here nor there as far as this thread goes. But as I was talking to him trying to bring him up to speed that Bismarck is no longer in a drought I went to use the SS Pipsqueak as a example of how much rain has fallen since it does not have a drain plug and is pulled up on their beach! Unfortunately the SS pipsqueak wasn't there and I had beached that little SOB till only the last few inches where still in the water just three days ago! Needless to say I began scanning the Lakeshore hoping she had floated off even though it made no sense! But no matter how hard I looked she was not to be seen anywhere. At this point I was in near panic mode but luckily reason and the lack of having had anything to drink at that point won over and through a small gap in a juniper I spotted it huging up on the neighbors dock. I guess its the trials and tribulations of living on a Aquaphor! 2 inches of rain has equalled out to 10+ inches of rise! Needless to say I'm relieved on more than one aspect of this particular night because it was a good day for him and a nice rise of an all to low lake.
