These images are all of vacations at Balch Lake. Half the lake is in Acton, Maine, and the other half is in Wakefield, New Hampshire. My godparents had a family camp that my Dad helped to build in the 1940s, and it is still there. We had many good memories of vacations up there!
 |
| Yours truly, about 1964 Do you remember when going to camp meant pumping water and using outhouses? |
 |
| 1973 My sister and our dog, Sandy Her very best Huck Finn impression! |
 |
| My Dad liked to make a big wave jumping off the end of the dock! |
 |
| 1975, My grandparents came up to the camp, but Grampy thought he had driven to the end of the world from Hamilton, Massachusetts to Balch Lake, Maine. |
 |
| 1975- when life was simple... We cruised the lake in this little putt-putt motorboat and thought it was "so cool!" |
 |
| 1976- Every fall Balch Lake would drain, and we would find stumps and weird things out where we had been swimming a few months earlier |
