Description
This image was inspired by Boats at Skaneateles Sailing Club, New York.
Skaneateles Lake (/ˌsk�ˈ�əs/ or local /ˌskɪniˈ�əs/)[1] is one of the Finger Lakes in central New York in the United States. The name Skaneateles means long lake in one of the local Iroquoian languages. The lake is sometimes referred to as "The Roof Garden of the Lakes" because its altitude (863.27 ft/263.12 m) is higher than the other Finger Lakes. It is 16 mi (26 km) long (17 mi/27 km long including the bogs at the south end of the lake) and on average 0.75 mi (1.21 km) wide, with a surface area of 13.6 sq mi (35 km2), and a maximum depth of 315 ft (96 m). The cleanest of the Finger Lakes, its water is so pure that the city of Syracuse and other municipalities use it unfiltered. The City of Syracuse spends about 2.3 million dollars a year to protect lake quality, sixteen people inspecting (usually twice a year) each of the 2600 properties in the watershed, which is relatively small, compared to other Finger Lakes. William Henry Seward called it "The most beautiful body of water in the world."

Yes Melly, I have been to Bogor and Bali for Punchak Silat training with PGB and I am a practicing member for a while and I learnt a little bit of Bhasa Indonesia. I like your watercolor paintings, they are good.
