Lane & Ben's Boating Adventure
Indiana has had a showery Spring thus far. Because Lake Monroe is Indiana's largest body of water, most of the rains run into this reservoir. 
However, even its great size hasn't been able to contain all the drainage, but instead has flooded. So when Ben and I couldn't reach the boat dock because of deeply submerged roads, we decided to see if we couldn't take the forest route. Below is a map that outlines our adventure. The X is where we docked the boat, the thick lines are where the road was flooded, the thin outlines the edge of the flooded forest, the green is my route to the lake, and Ben's way back is in orange. Click on the image to enlarge. As you will see, Ben was obviously the more adventurous one, and it was his first time ever driving a boat.
Note: Please replace words like "prairie land" and "plain" with "forest". As you can tell by my absent vocabulary, I was truly overwhelmed.
