Default My Grandparents

My grandparents owed a camp on Penelton Beach (bought in '46). They used to drive us kids up from NJ in the '50's to stay with them. I used to bring back a bag of pine cones and needles and beach sand when we left so I could smell the lake when I was back in NJ, still my favorite smell. When they sold it in 1961 I was 9 yrs old and I sat on the beach and vowed to be back and live on the lake one day.

....and I did 27 years later
