Mark,
Thanks for the photos.

I heard the lake was dropping by 5 feet.  At least our boats should be OK.
My boss lives downstream of the dam (near the tubing place) and is worried.
If Ivan stalls over western NC as predicted, all that water will end up down
here eventually.

We're pulling out our foul weather gear for the game, too.  Maybe see you
there.  Perhaps we'll drop by your place after the game and check on you.

- Rob
