We typically sit around in early May and wait for area lakes to refill with water from the high country. But rumors began spreading last week that there'd be no influx in Boyd this season, and that was confirmed in today's Loveland Reporter Herald. As we begin the Memorial Day weekend the campgrounds are full but the lake is somewhere below 55 percent of capacity, 17 feet down.
Those who recall the drought-plagued year Bill and Linda moved north to Loveland, 2004 or 5 as I recall, know the Boyd boat ramps closed for the summer on July 10 of that year, and so did the marina. No speculation on where that leaves us today, but the Reporter-Herald quotted a member of the Loveland Rowing Club as saying, "We're screwed." The club has pretty much suspended its seventh season.
