Arrghh. The residual mud must be awful.
It will take some good rain to wash it away - and after the river recedes.

No, but thanks for asking. The home is several miles away, with elevation and fully surrounded by fairly dense woods.

I will note that this is, under all the water, a boat landing and small park that I help bring into existence...or rather it exists when the river allows it to....!

But the mud, the thick gooey mud that the receding river leaves behind takes a while and still some more time to dry out and so allow people to walk on it. Southern Justice

This looks well above flood stage.
Is this shot from your home?

Did you have any worries about the flooding reaching the house?

The Ouachita River:

The Ouachita River is a 605-mile-long river that runs south and east through the U.S. states of Arkansas and Louisiana, joining the Tensas River to form the Black River near Jonesville, Louisiana. It is the 25th-longest river in the United States.

Welcome to the challenge - I don't recognize your name.
This is a very nice capture of the flooding a lot of the country is seeing now.
As Paul asked, where is this?

Any EXIFs to share?

The water level looks very high, which river is this? Paul
