I loved the old McGrath's in the bay. My dad practically grew up with Peter McGrath. I still have a bunch of those cedar boxes with "Alton, NH" on the cover. Love those things. Used to pick one up every summer.

I missed the original store when it burned. The new one, where the marina is now, just wasn't the same - too "modern" for me even though it was the early 70's, I guess.

I loved the 5&10 in the village, too. Too bad. Ah, memories.
