Smile So Many Memories

There are so many memories that keep coming back every time I am at the lake.

A few of the best were swimming off the dock, getting to take the boat out on my own for the first time, my first boat and motor at age 12 (I still have it). The wonderful homes, large and small, on the lake we visited and all of them are still there and many in the same family today. The business owners like Jessie Rogers (Bay Side Inn) and the "FAST" ride to Wolfeboro in the Chris Craft. The mischief we got into including one time with the MP and the MW . And much more.

Today, 9/21/04, my wife and I went and visited the summer home my family leased year round during the 60's. The daughter (and her husband) of the original owner now own the cottage. Nothing much has changed in the place built in 1929 but it certainly stirred up many memories and gave my wife an insight into one of the important experiences and enjoyments I had as I grew up summering at the lake and why I love the lake so much now.

But If I were to choose the best memory it would be with my son when he was 11 to 14 and we stayed on Rattlesnake Island. He would always get excited when he knew we were going to the lake and Rattlesnake Island. It was a father and son time always. It was such a wonderful time for him being there and I loved to watch him play in the water and just be a boy .
