Hmmm, how did that river get it's name? Are there lamprey's in it? (This is a legit question...) Nasty looking creatures from the looks of it...

Edit: Hah! According to wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamprey_River) there ARE lamprey's in the river. I'm not getting in that water, sorry! :)

Oddly enough it apparently gets its name from an early settler John Lamprey though.

I saw that. I wonder if John's family were named after the fish.
