Here's one of my weird random thoughts that I had while trying to fall asleep: how lakes get named. I've lived near/around lakes most of my life. Lake Erie, Lake Michigan, and now Lake Sammamish, Lake Washington, Lake Chelan, and Beaver Lake. Hmmm, what do you notice about those names? Hint: one of these things is not like the other... (sing it with me!)...
Who sets the precedence when naming a lake whether the word "lake" should be first or last? All the lakes mentioned above start with "lake" expect Beaver Lake. And since that's how I first heard it, calling it Lake Beaver just seems funny just as saying Erie Lake seems wrong. So, who decides this? Or is it according to the size of the body of water?
This is just a glimpse of the types of thoughts that come to me when I should be sleeping instead.
