So, I was invited to go along to Burgers Lake today, with the kids that is. We went and had a good time. Of course my dad was freaked out, because I had a cousin who died after swimming in Lake Texohma a few years ago. He died from the amoeba parasite. He was about 9 at the time if I remember correctly. I told the kids to just keep their faces out of the water, and it should be fine. What was I thinking? I feel more and more every day that I'm just a ghost around here-no one listens to me......Of course their faces are going to get wet.....I'm feeling a bit better about it though, because it is a spring fed lake, that is definitely not stagnant, and is constantly filtered.
The good news-the kids are worn out, and are taking a nap. Ah...if only for a little while....
Hoping to go to the Kimball Art Museum soon to see the Impressionists Exhibit soon-will let you know....
Safe Travels, Buddy

Have you heard about Burgers Lake being closed?
Some microorganism - probably someone pooped in the lake. DANG THEM!
Our family have gone to Burgers Lake for YEARS. I am sorry that 1/2 dozen or so got sick.

You're probably right :-)
