Yeah if we set it on a Sat or Sun that would work for me. It's about a 4 hr run to the park so if we had like a 10:00-10:30 meetup time I could leave like 6:00am and make a full day of it.

Is probably worth getting some official word on the status of said "high water"! I think a 10'ish meet up would be reasonable and as you mentioned be able to get in a pretty full day and make it home that evening. I'm in if it's going to happen.

I'd probably do an overnighter in Wilmer or something just as excuse to get outta the house!!
