Storm at Alta Lake State Park
« on: June 22, 2012, 10:04:53 PM »
Had a thunder storm roll through a couple of hours ago.  Knocked down several trees.  The road in front of our campsite its closed due to a leaner.  Quite a mess.

I couldn't begin to count the long  weekends we spent there in he late 60's and 70's.  Back when I could ride my dirt bike all over that valley on the right side of the road you drive in on, 'bout every where else too. :chuckle:  Must of eaten 100 perch from that lake..had the most worthy moment of my life there at 15.   I swam out to the edge of the swimming area to pull in a kid that panicked and started going under.

I think the Whitleys are still in the area, Grandpa Louie's second wife Alta was one.

It was exciting.  Barely held things together.  Folks in the campground were pretty wound up till after 11 pm.  No one was hurt.

Nothing big.  It's all good.
