Thanks for the video, my family also has a cabin on the lake and I really hope lake delhi will exist again!!

@jbeutow06 I do too, but know it will be many years before any sort of normalcy returns. I hope your family cabin did not suffer any damage.

Thanks for the video. My family's cabin is behind the Sloans thankfully unharmed by water. Hope all is well with you and those around you.

@nicoleditomaso I'm glad you to hear your family's cabin was not affected. We know the Sloans so know just where abouts your family's cabin is. My in-laws cabin is high up, it is across from the former Camp O. The family is up there today figuring out what to do with the Shorestations, docks and boats. Still is unbelievable!

Much more informative than the news. Thanks for sharing. I live on the Gulf Coast in Mississippi. I know all to well the destruction of water.

[denisecambridge]

@mrbrightbill it is amazing what damage can be done by water as you are well aware of. Have you had any issues with oil coming to shore? I watch that on the news and can not believe the devastation caused by that. All the wildlife and marshes affected. I hope you are out of that path.
