Strange...about the only things I remember from the 60's are things like no city water to the cabin so we had to have a pump drawing water from the lake...my father having to add hose during an unusually low water time so that we would have water(in the winter, at that)...bringing drinking water from home and driving to Eclectic for refills when we ran out...having to turn the outside antenna to change channels(Channel 12 in Montgomery for NBC programs, channels 3 and 9 in Columbus for ABC and CBS, Mt. Cheaha for PBS, and sometimes channel 6 in Birmingham)...getting stuck in the mud on the dirt roads leading to the cabin...walking the shoreline during the winter and nobody cared because everyone knew everyone then...playing in the woods without having to worry about people hunting too near the cabin...the old cabin cruiser that couldn't fit under the main span of the old Kowaliga bridge at 490, and barely fitting through the timber support sections ...eating filler burgers at the Big H in Wetumpka on the way there or coming home...I remember because I was too young to participate
