    1. joseph rusin 0
      No weeds yet, at least on the south end
    2. Christopher Pereira 0
      any weeds up over there? i was there in early/mid april and there were no weed beds that are usually there. (i'm assuming because of the draw down this past ...more fall/winter)
    3. Christopher Fidler 0
