Beach closed and skimmer waiting for parts

No surprise, the runoff from the farm fields after the last rain brought bacteria into our lake including e.coli so the beach is closed until we get a clear sample. We test the lake constantly to ensure safety. Closings will be pretty much a yearly occurrence in a man made lake. Notice will go out when it is open again. At least the pool is set to go.
Our skimmer is waiting for repair parts before it can hit the lake again. I didn't ask what is needed. Now we will once again see the inlets as they used to be before the skimmer unless the parts arrive quickly. Brace yourselves, I was at Pierce Lake this afternoon and it is really ugly by the tollway end. Green, slimy, bubbly looking stuff for hundreds of feet into the lake. We have been looking good.
