The western part of Lake Erie is catching hell today. Most of the activities in the city of Toledo have been canceled. Mother Nature will not let go.
Here are some pictures of the neighborhood where I live. I count my blessing because some of the other areas around here I know have water in their homes.
These pictures are of the Ottawa River. Where we have a dock. Our poor wooden Lyman is taking a beating.

Thanks for looking Rob.
The lake level is higher this year with all the rain we have had. More rain tonight and into tomorrow. With flood warnings for the smaller rivers.

Thanks for looking Geezer. Did you work on a lake freighter? Nature can be nasty but yes awesome at the same time.

No, I worked as a construction diver. And when the waves build up, I don't work. My "taxi" (tug boat) can't get to the rigs. Lake Superior is by far the scariest when the gales blow!! Like the song "Edmund Fitzgerald" the waves are huge!!

Sounds like a very interesting job. I know I would not wish to be on any lake when it kicks up.
