What a great experience! And I live ON the lake! I teased them and asked if he would drop me off on my dock. Haha! Such a great time and I learned a lot about the history of the lake. You're going to love it! I took that photo of an American eagle from my deck and the next is the view from my livingroom, overlooking the lake.
