Our dive team Orange Twp Fire Dept.recently raised this old fishing boat from the West end of Pretty Lake. We think it's atleast 40-50 years old. It's painted by kids we think and has the name ''gerbers'' and ''MGA'' painted on the bottom. If you know any history on it contact me 260-854-3003...
I had a great aunt who lived on Pretty Lake from the late 1930s to the late 1970s. I spent many summers there, and I loved it; this was in the late 50s to mid-late 60s. In the winter of 1959, we had a Corvair, and my mother drove it out onto the middle of the lake; it was frozen that far down. She and my aunt were ice fishing. I was a teen in the 60s, and I heard Sonny and Cher's ''I Got You Babe'' for the first time while laying on a wooden raft anchored in the lake from the porch of a cottage on shore. There used to be an entertainment area known as ''Merkling's Beach'', which had diving boards, rafts, and a 96-step water toboggan slide the you could rent the ''sleds'' for 50 cents for half an hour. What fun it was. I remember my cousin hunting a lot, and my aunt would have fried fish, turtle, deer, and homegrown foods due to the fertility of the land. I've not been back there in over 20 years, but a flood of warm, wonderful memories came when I returned....
