As part of my unabashed love for Ithaca, I’ll begin posting on a series of  reasons to live here. I’m not being paid by the Chamber of Commerce. I may have some selfish motives such as convincing family and friends to join us here, but mostly it’s just a chance to post places and things we experience and love in the area.

Reason #1 – Buttermilk Falls State Park & Lake Treman:  After work tonight, Rachel, Russert and I drove 5 minutes up the Ithaca’s South Hill, entered Buttermilk Falls State Park, and stumbled on Lake Treman.   In the picture with Russ looking over the ledge, you can see a beaver he’s checking out in the water.
