Woke up this AM to about 3 feet more water in the lake than last night. YEAHHH!!! Salt water has finally returned. Hopefully the outfall will continue to allow salt water back in. High tide is a 2PM so we have a ways to go. Dock will likely be under water by then.

No, that would be the owner to the east of the outflow/inflow.

No, I do believe there is and was some interest in sale of the east to divert it from this guy to the west. The property owner to the west, as early as Hurricane Opal, got a bobcat out and pushed sand around. There were those who dug out the lake to the east on someone else's private property. This diverted the lake from its natural flow to the west, long before Hurricane Ivan. That is a false time landmark. The earliest we might go back to get a semblance of a natural outflow would be about 10 years ago, before some who had a lot of time on their hands took to digging out the lake to the east with reckless abandon, IMO.
