Merry Christmas and boxing Day.
I remember one year when the Mississippi was extremely low, threatening and even stopping transportation. The governor of Illinois floated a plan to divert more water from Lake Michigan through the Chicago River to the Mississippi and whoever the governor of Michigan was [[Blanchard, maybe?) said that if they attempted it, he would be within his rights to send in the Michigan National Guard to stop it. I doubt that is actually true, but the plan never went forward
