    We went down by boat and got some important things and picked up everything outside that would float off or ruin. We moved a lot of stuff into the top part of it cause it's never gotten close to being in there. They closed the roads so early it cut a lot of people off i think. Last time it came up we went down there with water creeping up under the cookshed and took everything out of there, even the carpet.

    Sure hate to see that happen to anyone's property. I hope you all are able to fix it up and enjoy the place again.

    Hopefully it'll be in decent enough shape for hunting season... It's been there since 1964 I believe, so It has seen it's share of High Water. Including '73 when it was completely submerged. We've only had it since '05. The two times water has gotten in since we've owned it we just relayed the floors. We had to replace a couple places that were too rotten and in doing so found lots of more work that needs to be done on the added on part. Whoever built that sure didn't do a very good job. I think the people who owned it before only used it for an insurance camp. This time it's probably gunna be gutted out, if it's even salvageable. Mostly worried about the trailer part because it's so old. We went this morning and sprayed everything down with bleach and turned on some fans.

    Good luck stump. Our cabin was real real close to gettin water in it. It may have gotten us just enough to have to redo all the flooring. I know its a pain but, when ya get done itll be in ship shape and exactly how u want it... Hope we don't see water like that again for a long long time. And watch for snakes, they're terrible here
