I´ve been coming back and forth and still can´t figure how in the world do you say the lake´s name? :eek: ........really a tongue twister haha
can you imagine telling someone.."go near the lake (place name here)......" haha by the time you are done saying the name it will be hours past LOL

Karen, is that a native american name?
I must be soooo blonde today.....haha I can´t seem to say it right LOLQuote:

:D So glad you're all enjoying the pics! Karen does an impressive job sayng the name of that lake, I got left in the dust somewhere around the second "agogg"! As for cold...it was like 6 degrees! And that last picture of Donna & David where they look all happy - wanna know a secret? Those smiles were FROZEN on their faces! It's actually their teeth chattering! ;)
Those with the right parents do! My mother's high school history teacher gave extra points on a certain grade if kids could say the name correctly, no stumbling, so we all learned it just in case!Quote:
