Absolutely. And when you went there for ice cream, you hoped one of the young kids would serve you, not Mr. Tilton! He was a nice man but stingy doling out ice cream!

When my family purchased the property in 1979, my dad, who is a painting contractor, painted the main house and five units mint green. Not sure whether that was a better choice than hot pink, but I...

HOA Involvement

Some of us still work and have busy lives so the last thing we want to do is get involved with HOAs. Thank goodness we have people who volunteer. Yes, we have had our fair share of former captains...

Very fond memories of the Windmill, which was owned by the Thomas family.

Reminded me of the Double Decker. We would stop there for a bite on our way back to Mass prior to when we moved to NH.

Sorry Thinkxingu, but none of my nostalgic memories are still around. In no particular order -

The Junction

Been there twice. We think it is a great addition to the Lakes Region food scene. The food was very good, and the drinks great. (They know how to make a Cosmo which isn't a given around here.) I...

Assuming the weather is good, I will be doing the Ride to the Sky event with a group from Laconia. The crowds seem pretty low key for now, but that may be because yesterday was Father's Day.

Thank you for sharing. I wasn't looking for it, so I probably wouldn't have caught it. I'll be on the lookout now.
