Nature; Francis Slocum Park

Francis Slocum ParkFrancis Slocum Park is such a pretty park.  We are fortunate to have it is our area.  It was named after a young girl that was kidnapped by the Indians that lived there.  They didn't kill her because she had red hair and they thought she was a god.
If you look at the top picture, you will see a little island that was never there before.  I have a lot of pictures of the lake in that spot and it's not there.  I was told that someone made it and floated it out there.  If that's true, how does it stay put?  If anyone know anything about it, I would love to know.  I love facts about nature.
