on golden pond

one of my fave places on earth is squam lake. aside from the fact that it is rustically magnif in that quintessentially new england-y way..it is the only place i can go to by car for a 24 hour period and feel that i have truly been AWAY..in a good way.

so..for years now i wanted to share the movie "On Golden Pond" with my children, not only because it was filmed on squam which is beloved and known by them..but it really is a great movie! well, we finally watched it together on saturday night, and it did not disappoint.

i laughed and i cried..now that's shmentertainment!

squam lake

one of my favorite places on earth is my friend jen's camp on squam lake in new hampshire. going there for 2 days inevitably makes me feel like i have been on a real vacation. our visit with her last weekend was no exception. the water was like glass and the mountains were magnificent, and we ate like kings. i cannot wait to return.
