Where is the Water?

I just read Andre's blog re water coming in. As you can see It is still pretty dry where the water comes in. I took these photos Friday afternoon. the second photo is from behind the Dorchester pool. The water was bubbling but are there pipes to bring in water there? I don't know. The dead grass you see in the top of the photo is the Bahama grass that was put down about a week ago over plastic. When it rains it will be green, hopefully. The third photo was taken from the footbridge on the north end of the village going to the Hastings gym and pool and looking east. The last picture is also taken from the footbridge looking west. I'm glad we got all that water. I can't find it.

Thank Grace. These pictures look like they were taken in some disaster area. Get help soon Dave and Bob!

Show them what is what Grace. Great to see another observant camera in the village - nothing like photos to make a point.

Can grass really grow over plastic?

It depends what kind of plastic. There are many kinds of landscape fabric, of varying porosity, synthetic fiber, Dorchester looks like a random fiber soft felt. You could go take a close look.
When various sections of our shoreline restoration get underway it should be a spectator sport in the village. I wish I had seen them in action at Dorchester.
