Yes. we have bad issues here. This is the worst flooding in history. The waterways in the entire county are closed untill further notice. No motorized boating whatsoever. My personal boat is on a trailer in a garage in Princeton where I concidered it safe. Well the river has gone so far out of its path that the front of the garage has 4 feet of raging water in front of it and I can't get it out. I was able get around the back side and get into the garage. The floor is elevated so the water in it isn't as deep. I was able to replace the boat plug so if the water rose more the boat will float in the garage with the other one in there. As long as the dam in Pardeeville doesn't break, the building should be secure and hold the boats. I cant get the truck around to pull it out of there. People have lost property and buildings. I have watched all types of debrise including docks and benches float down the river behind my home. The business is between the two main lakes here. We have escaped any damage at BBLADES. We are fortunate. However, St Hwy 73 that we sit on was washed out for a few days making travel to our facility tough. The water looks to have crested last night. However, it is supposed to rain all next week.

Thanks for asking about us. Were we on the news?
