Be sure to be aware of ticks when and after you have enjoyed the lake. Those little pests are very abundant this year.

More pics from around the park. Please be very careful if you venture out for a drive there are still some blocked roadways. Especially down by the lodge/beach area. The marina looked almost untouched by the storm.

No worries as the state is sending in more help tomorrow to keep going on the clean up.
