I never said anything about a hidden agenda and I stated that the photos painted the lake in the worst possible light but I don't know if that was the poster's intention or not. I suspect that other pictures could have been posted where it looked much better. I had no intention of being rude and wasn't.
Yeah, I'm going to go ahead and side with LJBAB on this one, in fact, if I were a betting man, I'd bet that in mdeand's mind, he was trying to paint a bad picture, or he could've done a better job disclaiming that, but that's just me. I have no proof to say that he did, just that some pics with the progress that had been made would've been nice.
For what it's worth, mdeand, you have a nice camera and those are great photos. Just stating my opinion.
I think the Canton area got a lot of rain Wednesday night when everything went north of us. Not sure how much it affected the lake though.
Reports are Canton is on the rise.

Canton's catch-basin has been decently soaked this week. The rains next week will most likely contribute significantly to the refill.
Should this thread be retired? Perhaps since Hefner is overflowing we can start a Canton Lake Water Level thread instead.
C'mon now.. according to some, the desertification process of central Oklahoma is well underway.
I guess I better be careful then. I live close by Hefner and have high water pressure
Sounds like some folks got neighbors with grudges. Hard to imagine the water police driving around hunting for wet lawn bandits. Although, at 200 a head, they'd be able to cover the gas bill.
Hmmm...never water and my grass is nice and green. I guess people need to pick a better grass type. :-P
This could just be retitled to about Canton's water level since there is probably been more discussion here about Canton than Hefner anyway.
I think any hope of Canton being full this year is overly optimistic. During the traditionally heaviest rainy times of the year it is only up three or four percent from it's low. Some of that is just bad luck with a few storms that droped a inches nearby would totally miss it's catchment area but where we are at in the year it would be great to even getting a couple more feet and breaking the drought upstream in western Oklahoma and Texas's panhandle.
