Seneca Lake Mysteries

E04 Deep Diving Drums, Strange Seneca Sippin' and White Deer (Wee)


Listen Later

In this episode, we'll go deeper into the history of the Seneca Drums, the theories that attempt to explain the phenomenon, and the time in 2009 when the US government said "right now we don't understand what makes (the Seneca Drums)."

Next is a new kind of segment spotlighting some some locally-produced beers, wines and spirits that are named after some of the unusual, strange and unexplained stories around the Seneca Lake. This list isn't an advertisement, I'm just recognizing local products and places that celebrate and appreciate the strange history of the area.

Finally, we'll go over the story of the Seneca White Deer at the former Seneca Army Depot, looking at how they got there, how they survived, and how white deer have been sacred, spiritual symbols in numerous cultures, around the world, for millennia. I also talk about my own odd experience when I was part of the first tour offered to the general public at the former nuclear weapons storage facility called the Q area, including a completely unexpected meeting with a wee white deer.
