Things you find in the lake!?

This is still NH, right? PC should not be an issue. And I actually know the answer to this -

At the end of this particular festival/tradition the Lord Ganesha idol is to be tossed into the sea. A sea is not a a lake, so hand it back to them and ask them to try again. Or -

A bag has no bearing here (there were no McDonalds type bags during the advent of this tradition) so hand it back and say sorry, did you mean to toss this? 3rd option - dump the idol in the lake and wait to see if they ask to rent from you next year. If not you made them mad, if so they are ok with it.

Sorry about your dilemma, but that is a pretty funny story. Religion or not, littering is littering.

Funny story, and how awkward! Thanks for sharing

I wonder if that is WHY they came to visit the lake?

Thanks for the laugh - oh my!

This sounds like a great sit-com...
