Hazen Bay



We have been here at Hazen Bay for 6 weeks. It has been a busy time as it seems that this year the Army Corp. of Engineers has picked Hazen Bay as the place to harass, so Nancy has been spending a lot of time tyring to resolve those issues after their weekly inspections. It has been a cold summer here to date. Two weeks ago we finally broke 70 degrees and then a day later 80 and on tues. of this week 90 degree's and it is a cool 55 degree's as I write this at 9AM. The nights are still cool however. The pictures at the left was taken about 9 last evening. Our weekends have found most of our camping spots in use. This weekend July 4th. we are full to capacity. The fishing has been very slow until about 10 days ago, but now the fisher people seem to be doing pretty good. The lake is rising at a very fast pace. It has risen 10 feet since our arrival and they talk like it may rise another 8 ft. That means that the Hazen Bay may be about 1/2 full by the time it quits rising. It is already higher than we have ever seen it since we have been coming here. When you stop and think that this lake is 70 miles long and 3 or 4 miles wide in places that is a lot of water.
