West Pond
 | West Pond is a truly special place, in the foothils of Mr. Washington. As you approach the pond from the South on Rt. 160, you are met by a breathtaking view of Mt. Washington which is 40 miles away. The water in west pond is crystal clear, and you can often hear the loons. There is a large area around the pond that is protected in tree growth, so the pond will never face additional stress of building. There is also no public access for boats, and that keeps it quiet and free of the kind of noise and congestion you see in popular lakes elsewhere.... |

Mousam Lake
| 18 miles away 1 PHOTO ...st every summer we went to Mousam Lake. My parents rented a cottage in different areas there. Once we were closer to the area of Emery Mills. Great fishing. This was about 1958. We would row the boat down to a pathway and go up to the postoffice at Emery Mills. There was a store there where we could buy groceries. We would peek in the windows of an old building and see antique cars. Other times dad would take us in the boat up to the other end of Mousam Lake, under the bridge, to Meters where we got gas and a chocolate covered ice cream. There would be mom, dad, my twin brother and our dog Timothy. We would ride as far as we could go and stop in a cove and eat lunch then go catch frogs or turtles or find a turtle egg. Mom screamed when we would let a frog loose in the boat. Especially when the boat was moving. We would go further under a road where we all had to duck down in the boat and dad would get us thru the pipe into an area of the lake that was all lily pads. We always had to pull up the motor so it wouldn't tangle in the weeds. Those were the best days. I live in N... |
