This is far from the best picture I took on my visit to the Northeast Kingdom. The color is good but not great; most of the trees are evergreen; the lighting is humdrum; and the composition is nothing to write home about. Normally I wouldn't even have included this in a SceneSet at all. But I had to in this case.
Why? Simple. This shot was taken at Ticklenaked Pond. No, I am not making that up, but it is certainly the sort of name that upon hearing it, you'd assume it was a joke. :) Located in Ryegate, the pond has nothing to do with unclothed sensory stimulation; the most popular theory seems to be that it is a corruption of the Algonquin word "tickenecket", meaning "place of little beavers".
