We haven't had any rain to speak of this month, but I've been pumping water into the lake almost 24/7. If I run low on oil, or it gets dirty, the engine stops, but otherwise, it's running non-stop.
The first picture shows the water level shortly after I started pumping on November 9th.
This picture shows what it looks like a few days ago. You can see the rise of the water on the log. It's sort of my guage to measure progress.
Here's a view of the lake from Wednesday.
