[QUOTE="Mycanid, post: 3388993, member: 40370"] Hey I grew up in the area. Spent 7 years near Skaneateles, 4 in Skaneateles proper, and then 7 years in Syracuse, where the family would go down to my grandma's lake side home in the summers (yeah ... grandma was very well off financially). The place is beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. And with a twist of "magical" too. ;) Hmm ... probably would be best if you could visit it, or at least get a film or documentary or something where you could get the "layout of the land", so to speak. I cannot speak of the other lakes - Mighty Halfling's suggestions somehow did not really "fit" for me regarding Skaneateles Lake other than the one about the fey and the galeb duhr. (Very nice suggestions these were IMO!) I HAVE been to Watkins Glen, though. And I like Mighty Halfling's suggestions about that too! Why not have something different and "characteristic" about all the lakes reflective of different sources' attempts to tap some "overall power" the lakes possess? Lots of places you could go with this.... Hmm.... Alright, I better stop or else I will just keep typing, and typing and typing as I brainstorm online in-post! :lol: [/QUOTE]
