The Pond

June 25th, 2008

After a very long day at Lexington/Concord and walking the Battle Road, we drove north to the Squam Lake area in New Hampshire. We arrived after dinner and we were quite ready to eat. Jennifer, though, didn’t want to miss the opportunity to hit the water, so we delayed dinner a bit for Jennifer to swim in the lake behind our cottage.

The map labeled it as White Oak Pond, but it was more than big enough for Jennifer. We couldn’t see the edges of the lake/pond.

It had a swimming dock and a small sandy entry into the water. That was all Jennifer wanted and she totally loved her chance to swim in a lake. She wanted to swim in the morning too so we told her if she got up early she could go down to the lake and swim. She was up at 5 a.m., the earliest of any day on the vacation. So, Jennifer got one more swim in before checking out of the cottage that night.
