Please be careful if you go out to the lake. Do not go at night. My friend's son and his wife were just chased down by a mountain lion. After running to their truck, the lion chased their car going 40mph. It was the height of a deer but much much wider. By the grace of Jesus they are alive and safe but be forewarned of the danger out there. Supposedly there have been similar sightings from others.
