Same pictures as last time we had this talk. If they are right I have to swim to my house.

That said yes ike and reida did a bad number on the marsh in sw la.!! See it first hand.

But why on the west side if BL. ( way more lose then the east side of BL. It is finely coming back and regrowing??

The 4 sets of wiers on that side have not been closed in 10 year's I know of. And none of the concrete/board wiers in the marsh ( you take out and put back for boat passage) even have the boards in them. And that marsh is starting to come back.
As far as the channel gos open all flood gates and dames and let it flood and wash sediment down and the marsh will rebuild way faster.

But know they stop/dame it up to protect people that chose to build on a river that floods!!!

Reida nocked down the levee on the east side of BL. For a reason??? What reason I don't know!!

Sorry for all the spelling erears in a tractor, feeding yalls families!!!
