Thank you for sharing this legend, Paul. I am not familiar with most American stories such as this so I do appreciate your sharing. Love and peace to you,
Nice legend I hadn't heard before. I seem to remember a monster named Chance, though. Saw an offer in the Stanford Magazine for little piece of real estate on the lake. Only a cool twenty million, discounted by five hundred dollars. Guess you have to be a 1%er to get bit by Chance in Tahoe.
Speaking of the rich and monsters. My twin brother and his wife were guests of his brother-in-law on Beaver Island in the middle of Lake Michigan over the 4th. While watching boat races, Roger and several others observed a 6 foot long creature swimming on the surface for some distance. Surmised that it may have been a sturgeon. I would guess it was one of those pet alligators flushed down a toilet in Chicago or Milwaukee that was thriving just fine in the global warming waters of Lake Michigan. ;-)
Well done Paul!
I especially liked these lines...
"Anyways, back to this creature
Seen by native witnesses too
As it slithered under the waves
Knocked a guy clean from his canoe."
If the last paragraph is correct, then I could swim across the lake and even ride on its back, as I am not a gambler whatsoever as gamblers win more often than they lose, while I LOSE EVERYTIME...neat story, Paul...how is NH...? or did u move to, what was it, Mass....?
