Spirit of Fun One group of neighbors in Weingart's Riverside subdivision decided to make the best of a bad situation, and between operating pumps to keep water out of their basements, they have taken a certain amount of enjoyment out of a water Utopia which they have named, on a temporary basis, Venetian Village. Lights are kept on throughout .the night in the yards, to prevent some unsuspecting visitor from drowning. In a few places, walking can be accomplished with very high boots, but mostly transportation is in the form of boafts which residents fondly reftpr to as their "gondolas". They have giye an assortment of attractive and appropriate names . tq their dwellings. Some of the more unusual are Tomm's Last Resort, Otto's Sunken • Gardens, Bill's Light House, Barney's Island.
