It Has Happened AGAIN!



Edinburg really got hammered.  The park got another inch or so, but parts of Edinburg got as much as 7 inches in just a few hours.  Seminary Rd. is a nightmare of deep potholes to navigate.
Pumps are at it again, water is under some houses. We are all starting to mold.


And in case you are tardy checking Karen's notes...here you go...

When will the rain stop??



It is so discouraging with this weather. As I am typing it is dark outside and the thunder is again rumbling. All of the work that was going to happen on Thursday was again cancelled. We have the fence contract in place but am still working on the road bids. There is much needed repairs all over the resort and with the one bid in over $300k, you just want to ………
The ditch north of the resort has been dug, but we think they need to get back out there and dig a real ditch, not the little thing they did. In fact we were trying it out yesterday, and the county workers came to the office and asked us to stop because the water berm west of the resort gave way.

With the July 4th weekend just two weeks away, I thought we could have a picnic type lunch on Saturday at noon. We seen a Carls Jr commercial with a “hotdog, hamburger and chips on the sandwich, they called it the All American Burger. So guess what we are serving …..hamburger/hotdog/chips and watermelon. Please bring your beverage and a small side to go with our lunch.
Last Wednesday Tom and Rachel showed up to wash, well on Wednesday night I thought that cursed us as the rain poured down. As a reminder, please have your wash permits in advance. If you need to wash your home because of the green mold, please keep in mind to conserve water as the ground is full and more than likely you are running water over septic field lines that are currently at their max. We want homes to be maintained but with all this water sitting around, it makes our septic systems full.
Also we have had some ask about the water in the bath house. We are in our summer mode where the solar is the heat source. We always turn them on from June 1 to September 1 to keep the bath house cooler as well. One side of the showers tends to be warmer than the other and the “hot” water does not last as long as ten minutes at a time so less water is out in the septic lines during all this rain.
I am trying my best to enjoy life in this weather, sure hope it stops raining so much each time soon.
