BASED ON A TRUE STORY
Sometime between Hurricane Florence and Hurricane Matthew … between the ups and downs of our beautiful Lake Trace … on a pile of debris mid-lake on the North side shoreline … a Spark of Hope stirred in the small gnome that rested in its wood cradle rocking gently by a then mild current.
Waiting.
Soon a caring and kind-hearted fisherman out testing the still waters and perhaps throwing a wacky rig Senko with a slow retrieve … spotted this lone survivor of that first most fierce and unfortunate event.
A rescue was made. It was a sign!
Hope restored. We will survive. All will be well.
Happy New Year from the Lake Trace Gnome!
Please note: the happy survivor was carefully placed on a dock near the CTCC Marina, and is patiently waiting to hear about dam repairs ....
