Simple shortcut to Linda. My mom's family bought a cottage around 1930 along the shore path at Weirs Beach. (My Aunt and Uncle for many years managed the Mt. Washington snack/store on the Weirs walkway. My Aunt's Uncle was Bryan Avery so we got many a ride on the Mount back in those early years.) Later they purchased a camp and 8 acres off of Shakerjerry Rd in Moultonborough near Little Ganzy. I and all my siblings learned to swim and boat at the lake. A family squabble ended up with the place being sold and my great aunt who had bought it for the family was left crying and very upset. My dad never got over it. We would camp at Iriquois and Arcadia for many years. When I married and had children we rented a cottage for a few years at Buzzel Cove. We would have mom and dad up and they then decided to buy a small place on the lake in Moultonborough. Unfortunately Dad passed away two years after the purchase but he was so proud of his NH property. We go up there as many times as we can get away from our jobs. I do believe I've only missed one year at the lake since 1952. When younger even my 4H club would hike the Presidentials and stay at the Allen A. We love NH and plan on moving there on retirement.
