Up North - Summer 1980

Some shots from the summer of 1980.  What's really amazing from these views is the total lack of pine and spruce trees.  My parents were busy planting, sowing the small transplants we appreciate today.

I love this shot, Heather is totally entertained by Macy's splashing.  Simple joys.



Pontoon boats are now a given for just about every resident Up North.  My parents bought one of the very first on the chain.  It was christened "Hawaii".  They had planned to take a vacation there, but then channeled the funds to the purchase of the boat instead.  Who knows what would dominate the lake scene if they would have gone off to the islands instead, maybe surf boards.

Note the raft far off in the bay...another tale to tell.
