Braddocks Bay

 I've been watching the big red barge transporting  Volvo dump trucks into the bay for days now, but instead of heading out to the lake, they are heading upstream around the Buttonwood creek area. Anyone know what they're doing up there??

delivering sand for sandbags perhaps?

No...... the trucks are filled with rocks the size of soccer balls.

From the Corps:

 

"The contractors are placing stone to construct the low sill for the new emergent wetland located off the central marsh. Once they finish placing the stone, they will fill it with dredge material to bring it up to a suitable elevation.  They are also working a bit on filling the barrier beach with sand, but are taking it slow with the high water levels, trying to buy  some time for water level to drop.
