I’m back.

Someone asked me a few months back, after I posted the pictures of a bridge across the Arkansas River, if there were any lakes nearby. As I was driving home late this afternoon, I thought I’d snap a view from the side of my car about fifteen minutes from my apartment. This is Lake Maumelle, the reservoir for Little Rock, Arkansas. Water quality here is near the highest in the US, especially compared to other metropolitan areas. We don’t drink from the river.
This lake (one of many nearby) is actually larger than it appears from here.
What a year for a picture of a lake. The lakes in northern Arkansas are at record highs. The water seems to consume everything.
