The Kent Family's lake cabins are on Lake Webb.... Here's a late July evening on Burt's Point, Webb Lake, Weld, Maine, USA
Rich's grandparents (F. Allen & Leila Shaw Burt) from Boston came to Lake Webb in the 1920s. Since that time, the Kent family has come to Weld for summer holidays. All of the Kents grew up on the lake during the summer time.

Since Daniel already has loads of homework, he is thinking about demanding an equal amount for you guys. He might contact your teachers about it. Time to show that Scandinavians are intellectual people!
Warm regards

White shoes, jeans and t-shirts! A kind of universal school uniform, maybe. But the car is a revolution for Scandinavians. What a thrill, Peter......
Your bike is waiting for you back home :-)
And warm regards from Denmark
Mette, mom.
