[Texascavers] My Lake

2019-11-04 Thread Charles Loving
*The lake  at my place is leaking like a sive and loosing water. It has
gone from 6 acres to about 2.  We have dumped 35 dump trucks of rock and
caliche and four loads of cement into the thing and it accomplished
nothing. I think there is a cave, crack or sink hole. We have been working
on this for weeks and nothing seems to work.*

* It is a series of caves I am sure that opened up recently. We have had no
rain etc. The ground is tinder dry. No rain since January.*

*When it does rain two or three inches there is a dry weather creek next to
my house that runs toward the lake but disappears before it reaches it all
the water goes underground. *

*I am wonder if the cavers  could use a magnetometer to find the holes?
That might at least put us on a track toward repairing the lake. We have to
do all this on our dime and it is getting prohibitive.*

Not to sound crass but...  Why not abandon the man-made lake and enjoy the 
amazing opportunity that your local geology has provided you.  I can imagine 
future you stating “I used to have a 17 acre lake here but now I have the only 
humanly-accessible entrance to the fabled Old Man Wisdom system!”.

?I volunteer to come help you find the entrance to the Old Man Wisdom System. 
Just please for the love of gawd stop trying to pump more water into that hole.
