It was flooded, couple months back we got about 7 inches of rain in a day and the Ohio River got up out of its banks. It's not a regular thing but it isn't particularly unusual either, most years it doesn't happen but this year it has happened twice. The picnic area is in a park along the river, which has a sort of dual purpose as a buffer between the river and downtown Louisville.
Thank you, and thanks for dropping by and checking it out!

This happens because of global warming, and Mother Earth is like giving it back to humans what they do to nature.
Thank you so much for that information. I appreciate it very much. Have a great day ahead!
