Erosion

According to FloodPro we had 2.72" of rain in the last 7 days and that was more than enough to sweep soil off the banks of Boggy Creek.  Earlier this week the restoration contractors finally sprayed the exposed banks with hydromulch.

However, the seeds in the hydromulch didn't have time to take root before the much  needed rain so here are some photos of the sad results.
