What remains of the Bull Ditch is pictured below.
Starting
at End of the Bull Ditch at the Platte River
Cluttered
with Railroad Ties and Concrete Blocking the Flow
This
is a ditch diverting the water from the Bull Ditch toward town.
This ditch
should have a dam and be able to be closed off from the town during times of flooding.
Flood waters should be allowed to stay in the Bull Ditch heading for the river
rather than town.
This is the Bull Ditch.
The
County did come out and get rid of the Dam just several Days ago but the Dam has
already been Restored.
I saw a Muskrat and a Duck in the 'Muskrat Lake'
There
is lots of water coming from the west along Highway 30 and from the North coming
from the
Sandhill's spring run off, underground springs, and the Bull Ditch
North of Highway 30 and the Railroad.
Along
Highway 30 the Water is Back up a Long Way.
Between Highway 30 and the Railroad Tracks
It's
Coming From the North, Under the Tracks
All
This Water is Trying to get Down the Bull Ditch
History with its flickering lamp stumbles along the trail of the past, trying to reconstruct its themes, to revive its echoes and kindle with pale gleams the passion of former days. -Sir Winston Spencer Churchill- |
