  I wonder if the water is putting any of the MOGA caches in danger.

  I just checked the Corps of Engineers website...as of 3 p.m. Mark Twain Lake 
was at 640.09 feet.


  I have NEVER seen it get this high before...mind you, normal pool is 606 feet.


  Amazing. I sure hope everything works out and they can tame this beast.

  Hey Cachers!
  ?
  It is water, water everywhere. Definitely not a good time to cache in Monroe, 
northern Boone?or Ralls County. The Corps is fighting to save Cannon Dam?at 
this point and there is more rain to the north and more predicted for later 
tonight.
  ?
  Many of the caches Jo and I hid are surely under water since even the roads 
are under water and many closings are in effect. I felt sorry for those of you 
with caches along the Meremec, etc., but?never imagined we would have this much 
water and be in the same situation.
  ?
  We will get them cleaned up and back as soon as the water goes down and we 
can assess which are in need of TLC. In the meantime, forget about this neck of 
the woods. (Actually, in many directions you can't even get here.)
  ?
  To drier days....
