1. I live about 10 minutes from Lake Berryessa

.... and we are all very excited that for the first time in 10 years, Lake Berryessa is totally full! This lake doesn't get snow melt so it is all from rain.

The problem with all the rain is mud slides. And then there are the summer fires.

If it isn't one problem, its another, but yes, celebrating the glory hole overflow at Lake Berryessa is a great thing!

3. "Glory Hole" is short for "Morning Glory Spillway"

Its immensity always scared the hell out of me!! (I used to live in Davis and we'd visit periodically)

4. The water going down the hole is being drained OUT of the lake

not into the lake. You should correct your post.
