Lovely to have all that history and will be very hard to leave it.
You will have the memories.

Wonderful memories, Sallie.
It will be hard to leave, but life goes on as we move through the passages of life.

Some family will adore our 2 BR home and attached 2-BR cottage. I call it an 'entry-level family compound'! It sleeps 8 - 10 in three-seasons. The cottage isn't winterized, though.

# 102 William & Phyllis Cooper (of Willowdale) owned the cottage at the top of the rock next door to the Lynd's. Built in 1923 - 1-1/4 acres $2800.00 plus commission's. PLUS 16 Feet of waterfront on Lake Muskoka with a drive-in Boathouse. My Grandad bought our cottage June 30. 1945.

Coincidentally, Bert & Vivian Lynd lived on the same street in Willowdale as my parents.

My Grandad & & Rev.G.Lynd were contemporaries.

Our beautiful Pine Oaks Cottage as we call it was heartbreakingly sold in the mid-nineties.

- also #123 Art & Anna Campbell were from Waterford, Ontario.
