Well, it is nice there, but the lake is not clear any more. For some reason it has gotten very algae and weed infested. I had my scuba check-out dive there 2 years ago, and that was a disaster--even in 10-20 ft of water you could barely see a foot in front of you. A very laid-back, fun time can be had canoeing down the Wisconsin River. You can rent a canoe just below the dam at Sauk City and go for several days if you want--all the way to the Mississippi. The canoe rental places will come pick you up when you've had enough. There's lots of sand bars and islands to camp on, and there's not even any skeeters (the Wis. State bird) yet. It's shallow and slow, just right for bringing a large cooler of beer, and watching a very beautiful part of the world go by. -- *** *** JE MAINTIENDRAI ***** ***** ****** ****** 16 May 84 [27 Floreal An CXCII] ken perlow ***** ***** (312)979-7261 ** ** ** ** ..ihnp4!ihuxq!ken *** ***
