Not sure if you are flooded with flood pics but here are a couple more! Taken from the rooftop garden/deck of the Riverbender.com community center in Alton while on break from manning the pumps and shop vacs. If there has to be a flood I wish we could all sit on the roof and just watch it go by……….

Missouri History
A Look At The Little River Drainage District........
While it may be hard to believe today, but there was a time when swamplands covered more than a million acres in the Missouri Bootheel area, which produced the \term "Swampeast Missouri"
According to Kenneth R. Olsen, a professor of soil science at the University of Illinois-Urbana, American river lowlands and swamps were considered to be wastelands that are of no value for development.
The Little River Drainage District is some 620,000 acres across seven Southeastern Missouri Counties. Historian Frank Nickell says that if the Little River Drainage District did not exist, the region would have reverted back to swampland........

Metro East Flooding
East St. Louis Residents Stuck In A Flood Plain........
The residents of an East St. Louis neighborhood say that they are living on a street that never dries. Terrace Drive is located adjacent to Harding Ditch, which is a 100 year old drainage canal that stretches for miles before joining the Mississippi River.
Other nearby neighborhoods have been bought out by the government and the houses torn down. The land that remains always seems to be underwater. FEMA will not buy out Terrace Drive, however, as that cannot get the leaders of East St. Louis to approve the buyout.
Illinois Senator Dick Durbin toured the area back in April, and promised to dedicate resources and maintenance to help keep Harding Ditch clear. No representatives from East St. Louis met with the Senator........

Boat Sales
Despite Backlogs, Shortages, Boat Sales Soaring........
According to preliminary data released by Statistical Surveys, there is a near-crazed demand for new boats. With 31 states representing approximately 63 percent of the U.S. boating market, registrations were up 55 percent during March in the main powerboat categories and 34 percent on a year-over-year basis.
The comparisons to March 2020 may be a bit skewed because of the COVID-related shutdowns and work-from-home orders, however, they do reflect a pattern established over the past several months with no signs of slowing down.
Across the recreational boating industry, total registrations were up 44 percent year-over-year, with 46,407 boats sold. For March, registrations for all categories tallied up to 22,238, a 67 percent jump over the same period last year........

Ohio River Near Brookport, Illinois
Former Lock & Dam 52 Property To Be Transferred To Metropolis-Massac Port Authority........
Later this year, the former Lock & Dam 52 property located along the Ohio River near Brookport, Illinois will be transferred to the Metropolis-Massac Port Authority. The deed transfer will take place once the final contract for the dam demolition has been fulfilled.
Scott Garrett, the Metropolis-Massac Executive Director said that they have had their eyes on the Dam 52 property for quite some time. THe port authority has been around since 2009, but has never had any tangible assets.
Once the port authority takes possession of the property, they will own 19.1 acres of land at Ohio River Mile Marker 938.9, with approximately 1,800 feet of river frontage. THe board will consider lease options on parts of the property, but they are not interested in operating a riverport........

Norwegian May Avoid Florida Over Vaccination Checks........
On Thursday, Frank Del Rio, CEO of Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd announced that Florida's new law that prohibits businesses from asking whether employees or customers have been vaccinated against COVID-19 may cause the company to halt operations in Florida.
Del Rio says that if they cannot operate in the state of Florida for whatever reason, there are other states that Norwegian operates from. He adds that they can operate out of the Caribbean for a ship that would have gone to Florida.
Last month, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed an executive order banning the use of COVID-19 passports in the state. He says that a person's personal choice regarding vaccinations will be protected and no business or government entity will be able to deny you services based upon their decision........
