I am in Windover and near much of the destruction. I was very concerned about boating and almost did not get it out. I did so and was extremely cautious and slow. I am very glad to say I saw only a couple of pieces of debris, none large boating for four days in my area. Is it over? Heck no, but I do want to encourage responsible boating. We are supposed to drive a boat with caution anyhow, right? I think that it is reasonable to get on the lake---just be extra cautious and enjoy beautiiful Lake Martin. I would also like to applaud those involved with removal of trees and house debris from our area. They are giving it high priority and making excellent progress---much more to do though. Thanks to all involved.

We drove through Windover again yesterday....the progress is amazing, but still a long way to go. I'm very grateful we didn't see such devastation and my heart goes out to those who did.

No it must weigh 200+ lbs.

I went down to the waters edge to see if I might be able to remove this thing (on Spyke's question). Turns out it is part of a dock that has grey composite decking on it. So my first weight estimate is about half of what it really is. Anyone want some short deck boards? This thing is still hanging out here as of this morning.
