   I visited Piney Run Park Tuesday afternoon but had a computer problem
preventing me from reporting then. I went out again late this afternoon to
see how things had changed after some warm weather. There are two large
openings in the lake now. The larger one is in the main body of the lake on
the north side. The smaller one is between the nature center and the dam.
