I believe it is Se-bay-go.

From my extensive Native American language skills, it means, "Lake in land of such extreme cold that Polar Bears would be present if immigration laws were any more lax".

I wanted to post up my desktop photo which is a really nice sunset that I shot myself, but the path indicated in desktop properties points to a photo that is not in the directory that it says it is in. So how is it on the desktop if it is not in the directory? Got to love Bill Gates. Fortunatelly I still have it on the camera and will extract it soon and post it up here.

Here it is. had to act fast as the train was comming at about 70mph. I took it a little dark and by the time the train passed it was gone and I was unable to take another with the correct settings, but at least it was a little dark so I could do some post processing to brighten and adjust the contrast a bit.

OK, I've meant to ask 1,000 times, how do you pronounce "Sebago", please.

The phonetic spelling can be found online.
I like rhymes better.

If you tell your child to “pick up the lego”, Sebago rhymes with “thelego”.

A fluid word, with the last two syllables slightly emphasized.

I have a bunch of backgrounds like this...



It is fun changing the background, but I usually end up switching back to a F-22 background I like.

The lake we boat on primarily is a reservoir. When they open the dam for power generation and irrigation downstream, we get periods where a 'shelf' our pool of lake bottom is only a foot or two below the surface that may extend 100' out from where the true water's edge is at.

This pic had a neat reflection in it I thought.

Wow, so you have to "beach" 100' from the shore? Is the bottom there "mucky"?

BTW that is an incredible picture.
