Skinny dipping? You betcha! This year will be no exception.
![]() Before my skinny dipping times, I remember my friends and I sneaking out late at night and snatching the clothes and towels of some unnamed brother, brother's friends (male and female) and our cousins' babysitter. We then turned the lights on so they could find their way home. ![]() I recall a summer day when a water balloon launcher from a maroon Century was involved. Some of you know the rest of the story (this means you, Pepper). ![]() And I will never admit to mooning the Mount Washington at night in the old Renken. |

Come now, do you really think any kid who would possibly be reading this forum, and I do doubt there are many, would consider that this was an appropriate thing to emulate? Give our youngsters more credit.
It is a reminiscense and was certainly meant to generate some other fond memories to be shared. Alas, skinnydipping is about all I can think of from these parts, I never thought ahead enough to bring anything with which to leave my initials at Abenaki tower. |

I remember some water balloons going down the hall way of the cottage to the right of the Pavillion in Alton Bay. Now who would have done that???
![]() How about LC and me at 11 and 12 respectively crossing the bow and stern of the Mount followed by a siren and escort home from the marine patrol. An Easter weekend of opening the cottage for my parents and a large stack of Bud with G. M. & D. C. One guest decided that too much beer would not stay down and that the main heating grate was a great depository. (Shorter trip than to the john.) What a smell as we cranked the heat up. GM & DC tried to dispose of the empty cans by laying on their backs on the dock and tossing them backwards into the lake. What a debris field we cleaned up the next day with the neighbor watching us. G.M. later practiced, with my car, for his drivers test. Thought the garage was going to fall off the hill when I saw it shaking .... He was banned from parking in or near it. Or how about the young man from just below Cascades taking his parents Century Resorter and doing 180's while aiming at the shore line near Boulder lodge. Maybe he is a member of this forum today? He was also the same individual who swamped a 9' Starcraft (mine and still have it) with 2 very nice young ladies in it. We all did something that is memorable or not so memorable.

![]() ![]() And while we're reminiscing - let's not forget about a certain length of PCV pipe which facilitated the launching of a few dozen pounds of spuds over the years ... ![]() And how about a certain contingent of our family who "invented" parasailing off the top of the boathouse all these many years ago... (and remember how upset a certain neighbor got when he found out where the rope came from!!!!! ![]() (BTW - I'll have to ask Miss Moneypenny about some of those aforementioned events! ![]() ![]() And one more final note, which will only make sense to GravyBoat ... "Woooo Hoooooooo - - - Fruit Salad!" ![]()

Back in "the day", many years ago around Ossipee, and points toward Maine, up through Freedom, boyfriend and I rode around in his '47 Plymouth convertible with the top down, and he hollered at all the gardeners and farmers in a totally made up, contrived, ridiculously bad German accent" lots of gibberish" and they all looked at us like "what the heck" but no harm was done and we had a blast. Lotsa fun. Feeling like a kid again now........thanks for this thread.
