I used to live 3 miles from the Park and came there every evening to sit on the benches and watch the deer and black bears across the lake. I loved to fish for catfish and drive slowly through the park at dusk where I spotted baby bobcats, turkeys, white-tail deer and fawns and an occasional buck in velvet. The biggest thrill is watching the bald eagle swoop down and take a fish and carry it to its aerie. I miss it terribly and wish I had never sold my place in Lick Island Run.
