What is the Great Lake they call Gitche Gumee?

Thankyou for making this game available to people like me that are pretty much house bound due to having some type of a physical problem and are not able to get out to see what is going on in this ever changing world that we are living in!! In my case, it is one of those incurable diseases that i have had since 2001, and since i have been diagnosed with this I have been almost completely house bound for these past few years, the disease that i had been diagnosed with at the age of 42 is Parkinson’s Disease, and if i didn’t have something like this game from your company tomplay during my off times, i don’t know what I would be able to do with myself for those very long hours!! Thanks so much! Kathi stambaugh

Kathi Stambaugh, I play this game because I have MS, and I can only watch so much TV I also like to feel like I'm kind of keeping my Edge. be well Kathy.

Kathi Stambaugh, Bless you .. your in my prayers. Enjoy the game ..✌🏻

Kathi Stambaugh, Sorry to learn of your diagnosis. My heart goes out to you. I have been house bound for almost a year,so I have an idea of what you are going through. I will keep you in my prayers. I too, enjoy this trivia game. I just came across it a few days ago, and I’m hooked on it. I’m 83 years old, but love to keep learning new information everyday.

Kathi Stambaugh, ....I have Fibromyalgia and suffer from extreme exhaustion and allergies to just about everything. I too am house bound most of the time, and only recently discovered this game. I love the education I'm getting from this game. can't give it enough thumbs up !!

In 1976, just after the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald I went on a tour of picture rocks on Lake Superior. They played the song when we were close to where the wreck was. Very eerie feeling.

Kathi Stambaugh, I too have multiple degenerative and debilitating nerve conditions plus spinal issues. I am with you on this. I am bedridden a lot and have trouble getting around. Multiple surgeries, spinal and other, autoimmune, plus. Alone a lot, lost everyone... Now PTSD too. Prayers of healing, M.

Kathi Stambaugh I have fibromyalgia and a brain injury I’m trying to improve.

wow...everyone is so supportive. thats awesome. im pretty much housebound too, but only for a short while as ive been hit by a suburban when i was walking down the street and it broke some of my bones

Superior it's said never gives up her dead...

Cat Mom, Yes you do, it was recorded in1976. I'm only four years older than you but I remember it. The Edmund Fitzgerald sank in 1975.

Kathi Stambaugh, I like that prayers are said for people such as Kathi, and that they learn from this game.

Although I'm pretty darn old, born in 1964, I think I'm still too young to remember any songs by Gordon Lightfoot; or maybe I just never cared for his/ their music, but I need to look that song up

Player #26129643, I totally agree! Sometimes I could just scream because I hate to read typos & especially my own of course, & I've written large paragraphs just to realize that there are typos & I ended up just deleting the whole thing & moving on

Edye, diddo from myself 2 (more) years later!

I live in Minnesota and that “lake” scares me … probably from hearing the Gordon Lightfoot song growing up and knowing the true story too.

The Gordon Lightfoot song is playing in my head now!

Kathi Stambaugh, I never comment but God bless you. I wish you nothing but the best

Player #2278360, Kathi I have the same issues. D-Ribose suppliment has been helpful in lessening pains.I don't need to take Tylenol now. Do some research on this

Kathi Stambaugh, God bless you

Gordon Lightfoot donated many thousands to scholarships for the families of crewmembers. That's what I call a class act !!!

The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down Of the big lake they called Gitche Gumee

Player #desone, love and prayers to all of you!

Kathi Stambaugh, Wow. I really hope you've seen all these caring responses over the past 4 yrs. Mine included - just broke my heart reading that post, as it clearly did for so many others 💔 . I too suffer, & sad to see how many do as well. Sending hope & love to all♡♡

Superior it said never gives up her dad when the

Bintheredunthat, Blessings for you as well sir.

Kathi Stambaugh, You’ve had a tough road but I can tell you’re a fighter & that you don’t have a bad attitude because of your misfortune. Instead you’re thankful for this game. God Bless you!

The big lake they call gitche gume. Thanks Gordon

Maestro1313, it was sung by Gordon Lightfoot. but you may be correct that it was written by Don McLean. I will need to look it up.

The wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald, a great ballad by Don McLean and a great teaching tool to 5th graders.

Meant to say, "Had one of the best vacations I ever had on Superior on an island in Canada's Georgian Bay." I tried to hit 'delete' and start over, but my phone or the game didn't respond. Sorry for typo--love the game, but it lacks a comment editing function, and it's a lot easier to edit than blow up the comment and start over. Odd oversight, but now I see how people get stuck with typos.

Had one of the vacation on Superior on an island in Canada's Geogian. The water was pristine; the bass were inexperienced, it seems. My friend and I caught 24 of them in 2 hours. We thought we were going to go out and float around and talk about the world, and bass nixed that. We were working the whole time. Those fish were clean and delicious!

"🎵🎵Superior they said never gives up her dead when the gales of November come early."

Gwenieo, Bless you dear lady!!♡

Kathi Stambaugh, I WILL PUT YOU IM MY PRAYERS Kathi...God Bless you and watch over you!
