Christoffer's Adirondack Tour 2001


 Corey's Page I

Growing up, I visited a private camp in the heart of the Adirondack Mountains between Saranac Lake and Tupper Lake.
 

The first time I went was for a cousin Mallory's wedding and was held on this Croquet Court over 23 years ago.

Here stands the second house - the first one burned down at least 24 years ago. This house was still being worked on right up to the day of the wedding!

The Guest Cottage on the top of the hill

The garage and toolshed/workshop are as impressive as the guest cottage itself
 

While up for the Ironman, my PC800 traveling companion and I decided to take a chance and tour the camp.  After looking around, it was appearant someone was living here, but where, the place looked empty of humans. I went down to the water and looked out over to Turtle Island. Sure enough, humans... They yelled over who I was. Soon, Dave and I were in a tippy canoe going over to the island. It was a pleasant surprise to meet my cousin Mary, her husband and their daughter Celia.  I was in double-luck, Frank and Peggy were also coming out the next day!  Frank is my 82-year-old cousin, and he's in better shape than I!
