The occasional flooding is harmless other than impeadment of driving on Fletcher isle.

Watching mother nature at work through the 3 story glass front home  is awesome entertainment through out the year. Lightening bugs put on a magical, sparkling display at night in the spring time, They are often  accompanied by audacious hooting of the resident  owls. Prime time indeed!. Trees bud new green right before your eyes.  The snow bell trees blossom with tiny
 white hanging ornaments that you can almost hear the ringing of. The warm air is heavenly fragrant. Then the lush, almost tropical summers bring the  chanterelle mushrooms, a gourmets  delight, popping up all over the forest floor. Warm waters run shallow and  slowly in the summertime. River conditions create a more colorful fall then elsewhere in the area.  When the various Cyprus trees begin to rust then turn into gold the view is most spectacular.  Winter time quietly exposes the forest.  The tree branches reveal the grace and beauty of their dark lines  against the gray sky .Winter sometimes brings sufficient rains for flooding over the banks of the river in some places.When interior lights are demmed, the wild and natural exterior once again becomes the focal point.This area of the river is very private, secluded and peaceful.
