    Lakeshore Park by Nicole Mills

    I forgot to take pictures, and a dozen people were swimming so I didn't want them to think I was taking pictures of them. Other note - the 'beach' had been recently bulldozed so some serious quicksand type mud on one side of the beach. Almost lost a shoe. Took my test to the other, less 'sucky', side of the beach.

    Madison Landing by Jennifer Sigrest

    Sampled just before a thunderstorm. The weather was windy and the water a little choppy. Many people were out using the boat launch at Madison Landing. In the past week there has been a good bit of rain in the area but there did not appear to have been rain on this day at this site prior to sampling.

    West Spillway Dock by Laura Luke

    The water was still high from all the rain. People were out fishing and there were different types of birds. Lots of wasps and some dragonflies. The water smelled terrible. There was dead fish and trash floating around, and the water was a murky brown. I think the wasps were mud daubers, and they didn’t like sharing the picnic table with me.
