This video is taken standing on Swan Pond Road in front of the Methodist Church overlooking the TVA ash slide. Swan Pond Circle Road (to the right) was totally destroyed and is being rebuilt. It is only covered with gravel when I took this video approximately one week after the slide. Out in the middle of what use to be a lake are large pillars of dirt. These are approximately 50 feet high. Since I took this video TVA has gone in and leveled all the tall pillars. Vicki and I left this location and drove around the other side of Circle Road until we reached where the road was closed. We parked and walked but security ran us away before we could take pictures closer to the most severe damage. There was a horrible stench in that area. I really feel sorry for those innocent residents.
It is almost 11 months since I took this video, which is less than a mile from my home. The horrible smell I mentioned is still present, so something is still amiss with this site.
