Yup. It's going up.

Denise and I took a spin around the area tonight to see how things are going.  The water is getting closer to 212 by the school.  Over by Zoar, it's really coming up and running fast. Normally, the stairs off the Zoar Bridge look like this
Tonight, however, it looks like this


Looking east down the river and a lovely fall evening, you may see a view like this
However, with the waters raging tonight, it looks more like this.
So as you can see, there is a lot of water flowing down the Tuscarawas River.  You can see the full set of tonight's pictures here on my Flickr account.  What's most impressive is the amount of water behind the Bolivar Dam. It's a LOT higher then it was the other day. So now we wait and see what the rains bring tomorrow. By the end of the week, it may be tricky to get around without flotation.
