From Lynn, Mass to the Lake in the 50's

I've been trying to recreate how my Dad drove to Gilford from Lynn, Mass in the mid-50's. What I remember is the big white rock next to Purley Burrill's gas station in Lynnfield; Rte 114; Rte 28 through NH, with the Indian Cliff stone face & the mocassin shop; Alton Bay with the bunnies and dogs in cages on the right just as you come over the hill to where you can see the Lake water; and the old shore-line Rte 11. Actually, I always wanted to bicycle that route (doing it in sections might still be feasible). Thought someone might fill in some of the gaps in my story.
