Two years ago in May I was at the first tee at Palmer waiting to tee off (with L2RDHD from TOTV). The starter said "See that area there? That used to be a lake. We'll never see that full again in my lifetime". Well, it rained for 4 straight days with over 9 inches of rain (anybody remember that?) and viola - it was a lake again. I hope the starter made it through the week!

Not sure that is what is happening now but thought I'd share that story.
