Memories
As a youngster we used to swim down to the end of sachem cove. The water was deep and we were all proud that we were such good swimmers. One area was a little rocky and had water lilies all around. I remember these tiny little frogs that sat on the lilies, they were so small they used the lilies like life rafts. They were colored the exact same green as the water lilies and so tiny and fast they were absolutely fascinating. The lake was so pristine in those days the aquatic life was everywhere. Crayfish were everywhere, sometimes you had to be careful where you stepped! In the 1950's Winnie was so different than it is today.
