    Pictures from my day on the water

    Went out looking for a plane but no such luck. We did stumble across what I think is an exposed well. It must have appeared within the last 24 hours and it's only accessible by water. It looked really deep. I might bring a rope back and drop the GoPro in it.

    That looks like a weir box, be careful you could end up at the recieving end of a pump.
    Believe 1/2 of what you see and nothing of what you hear.

    Can you explain what you mean? I'm curious. It's fairly close to the dam.

    One of my friends on Facebook suggested that it might be an old outhouse? Thoughts? I stuck my paddle down probably about 8-10' and didn't touch bottom?

    A weir box uses gravity to feed water to a water pump, kinda like those tall cylindrical concrete deals you see on a farm. In other words it looks like water drops into that box to feed a water pump and those bolts probably used to secure a safety screen. I would hate to see on the news that they are trying to get you out, like a kid in a well.

    If you're grabbing cans that's not my problem.
