Mitigation Bank

Sorry this will be boring for most readers...family will love this and make you miss home...its all new since you've left I think! We took lots of pictures of the mitigation bank flooding with this last big rain. It did exactly like it was designed to do! YEAH! (I'm loading the pictures small, so you can click on to see larger)

-on the right, after you cross the bridge
-pine tree area before rattlesnake alley
big time flooded, but we decided would be great, if we had a 4 wheeler!

-quail course, G just gets giddy when this gets ready :)

-blue tube trees...these were planted before AH was born!

flooding by new project -mill field

-for alice, the gator spotting area finally getting more water

- new mitigation project, it looked really pretty before the rain...but not so hot now...but it did GREAT (i think, but we'll wait on dad for final analysis)


-the photographer and his helper :)

Great job with the photos and writing! The pics look so much better when they are enlarged. The stream project looks a little water logged and the vegetation we planted is flattened but you are correct, the stream project did exactly like it was supposed to do and a few days of sunshine will help everything look even better !
We are finally home from our adventure in the Mediterranean. I saw some great lemon trees but very little water.Wish I could write off the whole trip just to make somebody mad !! There were a lot of questions but no sales in Europe! TOM
