I grew up in a house that was uphill from a small pond that had been formed by a tiny and centuries old stone dam on a tiny little creek. the dam had been created to drive a water wheel that powered a little mill back when the community was pastoral and had grain to mill.
It's been a few months now. The sandbags have given out and the dam finally collapses. It's a bit anti-climactic really. Could have been more of a scene but mostly it just fucked up a few hundred meters of drainage watershed. The mill pond empties and is now a muddy swamp.

Everyone is unhappy. Everyone loses property value. A scenic bit of "nature" is now replaced by a stinking mosquito breeding ground. The state never did get around to doing anything to restore the area. The end.
