They did not know. I'm taking notes on who showed themselves as tards.

They're pretty damn close for the most part. In some pictures, you can see that getting the same angle would have been impossible due to the water levels now.


I thought the pictures were fine. I'm not understanding the complaining in the thread.

They needed it. But it is still low.

Shows how bad it has been.

Those properties are DAMNED expensive. Seeing those boat docks sitting on rocks in 2012 was amazing. The homes visible from The Oasis are OT baller money homes, and they are no longer lake front. You have to walk all the way down the bank and 50 yards over ankle breaking rocks to get to shallow water.

Hopefully, a more steady and normal rain pattern settles in now and the lakes continue to fill up.

Yep, they reintroduced a wolf to the area and look what happened after one rain storm.

I want to say I can't believe those people didn't move their jet ski once in the last 4 years. But I'm really not surprised.

Before and afters aren't worth much if they don't use the same angle for both. I get they are close, but would have been better if they were the same.


What the frick are you talking about? They are almost exactly the same.

Bad thing is, we still need more. Lake came up 29 feet and we are still 12 feet below average. Need another 25 feet to fill it up.
Heck, the boat ramp by my house is still dry.

And anyone who calls Lake Travis trashy is either trolling or flat out retarded. The money around here is insane.

The winds last night were intense. I've got a couple of limbs down and debris everywhere. Need to check my roof for damage.

Yeah I've got a uncle that had a house on Lake Travis. He just sold it a couple of months ago because he wasn't making enough money renting it with the water so low.

The only thing Lake Travis is missing to make it cool is a Prop Stop. Anybody want to help me franchise a Prop Stop West over here?

We need more chick fights, girls pissing on floors, and strippers in bikini contest.

I was really hoping and praying this would happen eventually. I honestly never thought it would fill back up. Awesome that they got the rain. A shame that it cost some people their lives.
