Back in the 1940s the prior owners father would dry dock shrimp boats down at the end of the canal where they had a straight shot from the Bayou. I had planned to get a ten year maintenance dredging permit from the Army Corps of Engineers, but I doubt I could get up and down from the excavator, and by the time ACE would approve the permit, I will be dead. However, the typical fishing boats and pontoon boats do just fine. I am waiting for the surveyor and engineer to shoot some grades for my final road construction. I will rent a bobcat for a week in mid april before I return and get approval for water retention.....sore point. I ran the bobcat at home to repair some of the flood damage, but it is extensive and we will have to bring in about four semis of gravel to repair the winter floods, but the twenty minutes I operated the bobcat have me hopeful I can get in the rental unit and complete my road and the grades will allow compliance to water retention requirements.
It is beginning to be magical, and all the hard work over the last ten years are finally reaching completion. Hell, last year I never figured to be alive today, so it is all bonus time.
