    3. Bob, You are of course correct on the lake and other names. It was about this time yesterday morning I was typing - 230 am is way too late to try thinking and typing! So the Galusha must have another random thought running through my head - perhaps a picture. And here we are again at nearly 230 am and this time I'm hitting the bed before 300-330 am so I can get to work a tad before 9. Thanks for straightening my foggy brain out.
