There's a Million Stories in the Fulton Chain of Lakes

Greetings from the North Country, where the beer is cheap, sunshine rather less plentiful except for the past day and a half, and the local fauna entice residents and visitors into a life of crime. Although I would not have come up with marshmallows and animal crackers if challenged to "name something to feed to deer."

H/t Laura who read this while waiting to pick up pizza at the interestingly-spelled Screamen Eagle in Inlet, NY.

Well at least they were not feeding squirrels. Those who do so quickly become enemies of p4500, correct?

JWE, you are correct sir!

Excellent post Dave S. Makes me homesick...Upstate NY has an excellent selection of pizza & wings. Mmmm.

Enjoy the vacation!

If you feed squirrels to the deer, there is an exemption. It's dangerous for the squirrels and dangerous for the deer, but it's damn entertaining for motorists and pedestrians. Although squirrel would taste better with marshmallow, that'd be illegal.

Man, you Midwesterners put marshmallows in anything, don't you?!

I wish we were up there. Feeding the deer is not lawful, cracking down on it demonstrates they need more crime in Old Forge. Now bear feeding....
