Resource Pimp 60 Report post Posted April 3, 2012 Ya, its been raining for couple hours, only about a half hour of major down pour. A bit of thunder and lightning but no storm winds with it. I still expect our bay to be completly gone by morning and maybe the rest of lower too. Quote "If people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles."
