The well, like the cottages I used to stay in, are gone.
PS: anyone remember the name of the group of cottages that I'm referring to on Eagle Shore Road? Owned by the Powers family...a cluster of 10-15 yellow cottages? I think they were called the Lantern Cottages or something like that.

The first job I ever had was in 1964. I worked at the cottages you are speaking about. They were called Coach Lantern Terrace. I worked for Mrs. Powers as a chamber maid. I cleaned the cottages and provided clean towels daily etc. When the cottages were taken care of I then helped Mrs. Tower in her house. I made $1.00 an hour. I often received tips from the nice people renting the cottages.
