water

The water in the swimming hole is still deep, but the river has shrunk so that lots of fish have taken to hanging out there, mainly bass less than a foot long. The current is lackadaisical, and algae is growing along the shore. At this moment it looks as if Wannabe Hurricane Isaac is headed thisaway but will drop its rain in northern Arkansas just shy of us. I'm sorry for the folks in the gulf, but we could sure use some serious precip in these parts. Like to see that river running swift and clear again.
