The water in the spillway continues to fall very, very slowly. All launch ramps are usable now but the most northerly is the most popular. You can access the walkways to the floating dock if you don’t mind steppin g in a little mud.
Belle River , on the other hand, seems to have risen a little but that might be due to the south wind. The water is as still as glass. My Purple Martins are busy with their kids whom I think have not fledged yet. When that happens the parents are really vocal and usually a baby lands in the yard where unfortunately, my cat is waiting.
At least two new sites along Hwy. 997 or Levee Hwy between my house and the boat landing are being readied for some development. A road from the highway to Belle River has been made—still dirt==which will give someone a place for a camp.
