The Lady of the Lake Seen Again.

Since the 1930's, the report of a Ghost of White Rock Lake or as some say, The Lady of the Lake, has made national attention over the years. Some years, the story is hardly mentioned, while at other times, it's like UFO sightings---everyone seems to have seen her at the lake,

Well, I was on my way over to the park office to talk to "the man" that oversees White Rock Park when I came down the curve at Williamson Road where the old T&P railroad bridge was taken down and replaced with a new bridge for the trail extension, when I saw the hooded cape sitting on the edge of the retaining wall looking down into the water. Doing a quick turn around, I came back around and under the T&P bridge, not getting to much of a good view as I would like. So, I turned around again and came back under and around the triangle and back again. Any angle I tired, I could only get about the same view as the first glimpse. That's when I knew it had to be the Lady of the Lake. Chills are still going up and down my spine this evening. It was something that I had not expected. I'm pretty solid and ground-rooted in not letting old wives tales and such take hold of my common sense but there was something very different about actually seeing this. What ever or who ever it was.

I even re-read the old stories of previous sightings over the years. They all seemed to leave people with that same sense of judgment that this wasn't just some tall tale. Even the national press stories seemed to have some weighted factor that, "well, there may be more to this than we know." So, I can't just right it off. And, since I travel with my camera on the passenger seat of the car all the time, I got a few shots, albeit about the same view, even though I was shooting at different angles. That was enough to convince me that something here, was a bit different and left more unanswered than could be answered. One thing for sure, I can now say, " I've seen the Lady of the Lake or The Ghost of White Rock Lake be them the same or two separates and I have heard the stories over the years but never encountered her, or it, or them until today and an encounter it was. It's logged now with the camera's GPS and logging system.

My eye catches the out of place things where most don't see things like this.
