I remember many visits where I could only see Chen Ching lake on the
weekends, even though I could always throw a rock into it from our apartment.

The major accidents I saw usually involved a logging truck, carrying many
tons of logs with only one chain (or even one rope!) to secure the
load.  Snap-smash, oops.
