I was down at the MCPA yesterday and saw two large crane trucks. They were setting the new cupola on the old light house. It looks nice.
I did notice that it seemed like there were a lot more people down there than needed for that project then I heard two men talking. One asked the other, "do you think that was vandalism? I don't I think that pump got knocked over because of it rocking and rolling." I asked what had happened and they said there was some sort of very large pump that was tipped over and a bunch of oil was "all over the place." I noticed the grass on teh south side of the light house looked slick and dark but then also so a bunch of DNR type boats tied up along the river. I don't know much more than this but something did happen down there. Not sure if it made it to the water or not.    |

Ugh. Why can't people just take care of the things they have?

I guess some people were speculating it was vandalism but another man said "no way, it would take over 10 strong men to push that pump over." I still don't know what the pump is or where it was. Just saw a LOT of commotion going on. |
