(6,325 posts)Lake Huron rolls, Superior sings
In the rooms of her ice-water mansion
Old Michigan steams like a young man's dreams
The islands and bays are for sportsmen
And farther below Lake Ontario
Takes in what Lake Erie can send her
And the iron boats go as the mariners all know

(37,882 posts)I stuck my big toe in Lake Superior one summer, and it was so cold that an electric shock went right up my leg, through my torso, and into my armpit. Yikes! Plus, a lot of the shoreline is rocky. It is impressive, though.

(408 posts)We went swimming in it today. Might go again tomorrow if the smoke situation is decent (air quality has been extremely difficult all summer long).
