Shore1066 Posted May 8, 2017 Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 Grommer is that logging truck just passing or holding down the bridge. Reason I ask my dad use to back a dump truck out on a dock here on the St, Lawerence River to hold the dock down from high water. Also they use to put dump trucks on the Thousand Is. Bridge, Rt. 81, during high winds. It does look bad for that brown building tho. The river front in Clayton NY all the buildings along the water have water in their basements too. They say it is going to rise another 9 to 12 inches here. Only floating docks are use able here. High water now is what was normal when I was young at this time of year. Amazing what mother nature can do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shore1066 Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 They have a lot of floating docks. The main facility was originally a lumber yard . Otis Brooks lumber . Back years ago they experienced high water every year so they built the buildings high enough so they didn't get flooded . Not sure about the new buildings. Most docks are under water. A lot of people are in for a big surprise when they get here. The marinas are not putting boats in the water because they have no place to tie them up. It's pretty bad.

Hey Shore, we are up there every summer and we will be in Clayton for the Charity poker run in July. If you are around come down to the docks and say hi. I haven't been to the boat museum in years but loved it. I plan on checking it out again this summer. We will be coming into Clayton July 12th until the 16th.
