Since all I had was a fairly sketchy map that I found on a web site, I was not sure that I would find the lake. I had to drive by intuition, but I did make it to the lake. There was a small sandy beach. A car was parked there, but no one in sight. I did not try the waters though. It does not seem like there are alligators here, but I certainly do want to be face to face with one. After all, there are nice lakes at home I can swim in. :-)
