A little more about my situation...

I am not near, in, beside, below, up against, close to, or around any thing that could be even mistaken for a "wetland". I would be, however, creating a beautiful place for ducks, fish, geese, frogs, snakes, fish, worms, crickets, fish, deer, fox, bats, and fish to live. Did I mention fish?

The "man" knows I am doing something because he stopped by to "visit" after I cleared the area around the creek. By the way, my creek is identified as intermittent on the USGS topo map, and as perineal on the USGS soils map. Hmmmm....

I am meeting an engineer tomorrow AM on the site. He says he can get me the required permits for $1-2k. I say thats a bargain, if he really can do it. Oh, did I mention that he was referred to me by the Corps?

I say...whatever...It's worth a couple grand just to make this problem go away.

Hey Moe, I'm trying to think but nuthin's happening!
