The lake started leaking back in the fall. The overflow seen above (concrete with 30" pipe) is the culprit. Somehow where it turns to go out of the levee is where it was leaking. So the geezers that live on the lake held a speshul meeting to discuss. Somebody's big brother's, baby moma, uncle's nephew knew somebody that had served in the Army in the civil engineering dept and he was ready to give advice. I suggested that we pay somebody that actually does this type of work to come check it out for us, but the geezers were quick to tell me that bubba's uncle's, cousin, neice's nephew was already looking into it (basically called me a jada and to shut up).

So Bubba suggested that we fill the overflow with concrete and dump a bunch of dirt on top of itDoh.

It worked.... For about 4 months. That's the story of how we got to where we are today.
