| In May 2004, I finally made it to Lake Drummond. The air was crisp and cool and there was not another human being on the lake that day. I kayaked across the lake to the northernmost point. Late in the afternoon, I headed back and found the (tiny) entrance to the feeder ditch thanks to colored flags I had left behind. | ||||||||||||
