The BP station burned down several years ago. There was no one to manage the tanks. Now that they're up the EPA will get involved. The owners will have to remove them and do ground sampling. I don't think you can insure a business that no longer exists. This is going to get expensive.

The locals use canoes or flat-bottom Jon boats. There are a lot of gravel bars and shallows.

I'm surviving, made it through the flooding in Magoffin Co., without any issue save for some underpinning knocked down on my home. (Flood was within 6" of getting into my home)
My mother in law passed passed away 2-24-2021. and we just now got to bury her today, 3-4-2021 due to all the flooding, etc.

Sorry to hear about your Mother-in-Law Wes.You have my condolences and prayers.
Glad the water didn't get your house. I can remember back in 1997 when the Licking River flooded in Falmouth. That was a horrible experience. Like I said earlier, I don't know what's worse to clean up from, a flood or a tornado.

That's a good video Ken. Somebody posted pictures of the Falmouth Flood from 1997 on FB earlier this week on the anniversary of that flood. Looked the same. Devastation all around.

bought them both as a combo for a song....
Already swapped spark plugs on the truck, about to install a new set of points/condenser/plug wires to round out the maintenance.
Already changed the oil/filter, air filter, etc.
Just needs new tires, the vacuum booster replaced and some odds and ends.
Should be roadworthy in a week or so.

Mostly just working here as well. Getting geared up from almost a year of "down" time.
