Sunset Marina shedding its water

The first thing you notice as you approach Sunset Marina is that there is a small bank at the edge of the water near the entrance.

Sure, later in the season the bank will be 14 to 16 feet high, but it's good to see even a 6-inch bank after the sixth greatest flood in history.

Further into the marina, where the first turnoff into the parking lot is, the water is almost completely off the drive. Further along the south road only a few feet of water remain on the road where a low area drains the parking lot. The only other water is near the southeast corner of the buildings, and of course the road to the flooded parking lot for the 100 and 200 docks.

If the water keeps falling at that rate boaters will be able to drive into the marina sometime next week.
