Early morning at Forest Hill Lake, the grunts and chirps from around the lake sound like Pleistocene awakenings. The Mud Cats are busy running up and down the hill, and across the hard lake bottom. The last bit of excavation is the construction of two [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s time for our weekly update on Forest Hill Lake from David Hathcock. Thanks David. Almost finished with the hauling out. Engineers are completing the retention basins that will prevent the lake from re-silting in the future and make maintenance easier. When that is complete, residents will see trucks bringing in large rocks to rebuild [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks to David Hathcock for the following update and pictures. Tuesday, Sept 8. What the Irish would call a &#8220;soft&#8221; day. The rest of us would call it wet. Ducks would call it wet. But when one walks down to hill to the lake&#8230;the lake is back. The work is unfinished, and the outlines need [...]]]></description>

And now the RTD is reporting that the project may finish up ahead of schedule, despite the sometimes heavy rain and sporadic vandalism.

		<description><![CDATA[Latest update from David Hathcock: You don&#8217;t have to have a hurricane to have a flood. The rain over the weekend caused serious flooding at Forest Hill Lake. Even though the 71 year old control valve was open, the water rose to such a level that it overflowed the top of the dam/causeway. You can [...]]]></description>

Probably about 55-60% completed with the dredging, and the project is really moving ahead. The old stone walls around the historic lake are beginning to be uncovered, and the gazebo is being rescued. There are bull frogs still [...]]]></description>
