Lake Brandt is one of three Greensboro Lakes. It is named for Leon Brandt who was mayor of Greensboro at the beginning of the 20th century. At 816-acres, it is the second largest of our municipal reservoirs. It was built in 1925, making it Greensboro's oldest lake.*. If you go there on the weekends, you will see it in full use. Also, the trails around it are lovely this time of year. It is also a lovely place to go bird watching, especially if you can beat the boaters.
Today's photo was taken on Saturday when the weather was absolutely beautiful, the quintessential, fall day.

That's a good number of canoes.
