a cara.....saleen lake in the '40s was an oasis.....of which i will describe in my bit on the lake.......yes there was a stone island in the lake which was a nesting place for swans and balcoots......i swam on to it manytimes and in my day named it my fortress.....here i was tarzan....and every pirate that pillaged the waters.....saleen lake had great pike.....and perch....and eels......and in my day many a canvass bag floated on the waters near the track.....here all unwanted dogs....went to their grave...... |
