Does anyone swim in Sam Rayburn Lake? -

After seeing those pics of huge alligator gar caught on the lake, I would be iffy from even sticking my toes in the lake for a second.

Of course they do. Gars do NOT eat people. They re a pretty passive breed of fish.

Can anybody recommend me nice places to visit in New England? -

I need to be in Albany (NY) on March 30, 2010. I want to take advantage of that trip and travel through New England. I would like to start in Boston and drive south to New York. I am aware that the time of the year may not be the best one but I would appreciate anybody recommending possible destinations. I have around 12 days and would like to spend some time in Boston and New York as well. Any advice will be appreciated.

Prudential Center, State House, Quincy Market a duck tour which will take you all around to the hot spots.
