Low water
Low water? Low water? When all we’ve heard about for the last several months, when all we’ve seen for the last several months, is flooding, we have a low water advisory here in Paducah? Come on! This is beyond comprehension! Except that you understand it, don’t you? You live with this, don’t you? This is life, isn’t it?
Low water.
So we wait and watch and remember that you’re out there.
Even when there’s low water.
Be safe, and let us hear from you.
