The river level in the Ottawa pool is finally back to normal and predicted to stay that way! It’s been a long haul.
Our friends down river are not so lucky. Closed to recreational traffic below Lacon, lots of folks have been banned from boating on it for weeks. Peoria will be above flood stage for at least another week.
John Guider, who is trying to finish a 6,000 mile Great Loop journey in a one-man canoe, is stuck in Chillicothe. According to the blog on his website, he tried to talk the Coast Guard brass in St. Louis into making an exception to the boating ban, but no dice.
Hoping for no more downpours!
