The a Frame Cottage

My days as a married woman with children, My husband Walter and i had a cottage at North Bay. This was an A-frame cottage, Beautiful near the lake. Our sons Kirk and Erik liked playing on the shore, We would go swimming in the water. Then father Walter would take us in a row boat, A cruise on the lake would guest. I would cook the delicious food, Father would gather firewood for the wood burning stove. We would play games with the children in the living-room, Like gin rummy and monopoly. The cottage had an upper level and a lower level, Decorated with care and love, very simple. Very scenic and beautiful with tall birch trees. The cottage had a picnic table on the deck where you could have lunch. There was a fair portion of property with the cottage, Seldom scenic and beautiful, what an awesome place. Would take us about two hours to get there, Walter would drive us to the North Bay cottage. What good memories we have of this, I am thankful to God for all these blessings.
