Water problems in Michigan

With water flooding out of Lake Michigan at Chicago,  and water flooding out of Lake Huron at Port Huron,  these photo’s are somewhat indicative of our problem.

If you look closely at this seawall photo,  you can see the water discoloration, witnessing where the water SHOULD be.

Then there’s this photo, showing a boat, docked 12 ft away from the seawall, (but a least floating).

Finally the above photo!   The next day, a storm system lowered the water level a couple of feet below the normal low,  and we see the same boat,  same dock,  but now the boat is sitting firmly on the bottom!!!

Our Senators and State Representatives,  agree that the water going out of Chicago and Port Huron,  are causing much of the problem,  but also agree, that little or nothing is likely to be done about it.

It’s a sad state of affairs, when a goverment will allow one of the wonders of the world to be slowly drained, until it’s just one big mudpit.
