Lynda, funny how weather influences our perception.  My two most memorable lakes are Hustler and Sark, and it for sure was a magical event based on weather.  Also, who we are with.  Curtain and and Louisa and Rebeccah for me.

Your pic today of Lower Basswood.  The drop looks "way short" to me.  How about to you?  High water?  That's the Canadian side, correct?  You know, I've never seen the US side for more than a few minutes.
