The opposite side of the river isn't faring as well as our protected side.

Yesterday we were almost ready to install the stairs on the new landing. Today the entire project is underwater and the water is still rising. The river is supposed to crest this afternoon at 19.5 feet. We will see in the next day or two if it survived but I'm betting it will be fine and it can be finished by next week.

What a bird show! This big Pileated Woodpecker is hammering on a tree right off the deck. There is always something to capture your interest when you are on the river. Dates in 2019 are beginning to fill so call soon to book your own river retreat. Beth 918-606-1825

Yesterday the extended Purdy family celebrated Thanksgiving at the Cabin. The Purdy Cabin is a great venue for group dinners and family reunions. Book your event today.
