Andy Rudin sent this link from the New York Times about Vermont's recovery from the floods this summer.

Thank you, Andy.


He also sent me copies of some old photographs taken at Joe's Pond and given him by Danny Colford, whose home on Route 15 burned this summer. Unfortunately, some of Mr. Colford's treasured old photos were lost in the fire, but he sent some to Andy. One that I recognized right away was of this cottage. This is from a different collection, but it is definitely the same place and I believe it was located either on the point now known as Cove Road, or possibly along Clubhouse Circle. You can see a large barn which I believe is the Ewen farm above Sandy Beach Road. Perhaps someone will recognize the place and let us know. Andy will be contacting Danny Colford to see if he knows whose place it was.

The second picture has a sign "Dew Drop Inn," but I don't have a clue whose cottage it was. It could have been located on West Shore Road, or perhaps Birchbound Road or Edgewood Avenue.
