sml: Smith Mountain Lake Is Back Up To Full Pond! - 02/13/09 09:00 PM
We were shocked to see the water level at Smith Mountain Lake today. After months of little rain and drought conditions for the past two summers, Smith Mountain Lake reached full pond (795 feet) on January 10th. It's lowest level in 2008 was 789.54 feet.
Appalachian Power which operates the hydroelectric project at SML and Leesville Lake, stopped following the lower output variance (400 cubic feet per second) when the lake reached full pond. Normally water is released at 650 cfs, the variance allowed water to be released at a slower 400cfs until reaching full pond. AEP had been releasing less … (0 comments)

Thirty years disappeared at the lake last night- suddenly I was sixteen again! STYX performed at Mariner's Landing, the second act in their Summer Concert Series. We arrived early in the afternoon and decided to get a bite to eat at The Pointe Restaurant. The band was just unloading the bus and we actually said hi to one of the band members on the way in. (I was still an adult at this point).
The organizers hold a Pre-Concert Party starting at 4pm. For $15, there are appetizers, cash bar, live music, free fold up chairs and a shuttle back and … (50 comments)

sml: Sherm's Boat Services -Huddleston, VA- Serving Smith Mountain Lake - 07/27/08 11:15 PM
So, after having our boat in for service three times in the last month, we eagerly picked the Sea Doo up and headed to the lake. After launching and starting the engines with difficulty, we were off. Since our house is in the next cove, we decided to take go over to take some photo's. Since it's a no wake cove, we slowed down. Bad idea. Neither engine would turn over. One sounded as if it was going to detach from the boat altogether. We were not happy.
After sitting in the sun for twenty minutes with no sunscreen, tied … (10 comments)

Since we're trying to furnish our lake house on a budget, I'm all about saving money. I love bargain hunting, especially yard-sailing on the weekend. The rest of the week, I'll pop into our local Goodwill Stores when I'm in the area. I've found some great nautical lamps and a brand new comforter set in the last few weeks. There are five stores that I frequent; one in Lynchburg, Forest, Madison Heights, Bedford at Smith Mountain Lake.
You just never know what you'll find and today I came upon a happy surprise. I walked in to the Forest store and look … (15 comments)

sml: 21st Annual Smith Mountain Lake Clean Up Day - May 3, 2008 - Take Pride in Your Lake! - 04/12/08 05:32 PM
May 3rd is the date set for the 21st annual Clean Up at Smith Mountain Lake. I love that neighborhoods pitch in and that there are organized collection sites around the lake where volunteers can take the debris pulled from the lake. Mountain View Shores residents will meet at the boat launch at 9am and divide into work groups to tackle chores in the neighborhood. One of the best ideas I've seen for collecting debris is a kiddie pool floating on the surface of the water. Of course someone has to be IN the water, but that's beside the point! Come out … (3 comments)
