This month we are heading to the summer resort Richfield Springs, New York.
Richfield Springs was known by the local Native America population as “Big Medicine Waters,” and the Oneida tribe called the sulphur springs “Ga-no-wan-ges” meaning “stinking water.”
This month it is time to visit another lake in New York!
Rockland Lake is located in Rockland County, New York, in the hamlets of Congers and Valley Cottage. It was known as the “Quashpeake Pond” to the Native American population and later served as an important place of work for European settlers.
