I h...I can't believe I have missed this blog!! I have been reading 'Bree's Blog' for a couple of year's now, and will continue to do so, but here is someone who is actually living in the buildings where I grew up!! Raising her kids where I was raised!! What fun! I love reading your perspective on this and am trying not to be jealous! The closest I have come to sharing this with my own two daughters was our visit in 1980 for the College reunion - they were 6 and 9 at the time. <br />I love to see the 'President's Dining Room' turned into this lovely Italian Restaurant. I spent many summers serving there, although in those days the service was all 'family style' - no individual orders.<br />I'm trying to remember the things that really stuck in my memory from my early summers on the Island (age 3-months to 4 years). I remember pony rides, and not being allowed to run barefoot! But I also remember building houses on the beach, sort of in front of Dwightwood Springs, I think it must have been. Finding the flat rocks to make the walls. I believe this has in the last 60 years turned into a specialty of making towers on the beach, but I remember little houses. Just something to add to your 'bucket list'!!Irene Cowleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3475803805588517127.post-88255777282677339872011-08-16T23:57:23.971-04:002011-08-16T23:57:23.971-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Melodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10196584202223839316noreply@blogger.com
