I lived near the Thousand Islands area a couple years back and was lucky enough to see some of these awesome islands with homes built on them that ranged from tiny to large. During the winter, the St. Lawrence River freezes and people go ice fishing on it. Locals drive onto the frozen river and park their cars where ever they please. Back in the day they used to have horse and carriage races on the frozen river. And, of course, the fishing wasn’t bad.
