They do favor grassy lawns near water.

I swam today in West Alton and it was invigorating. No sign of blooms and my skin is still a pasty white. (I'm still working on that). I think the pollution problem isn't just those who have properties on the lake, but the runoff from all that live near the lake. Drainage from storm sewers and road ditches that all make their way into the lake. Tough problem to solve, but worth solving.

Open sight line.

Grass is for grazing.
