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.

What's in your mouth, Alexander? Peter, you look very serious about it!
Mette! An odd way to kill yourself is to bend your yaws apart. This is an internal joke of the Szeps family, stolen from a Felini movie were the husband tries to commit suicide this waý, while his nagging wife, continously is screaming at him. In our family it is a gesture of extreme discomfort. I would guess that this time, it was associated with Alexander´s math homework. Rich, you can try it when you have had enough of the boys. I promise that it is an effective way to get attention at the dinner table
Michael - It is so fulfilling to learn all these new things about the Swedes... I've always thought there was something special about you :o)
I am sure Peter will take it back with him and get extra attention at the dinner table as well!
Hey guys, this is terrific. You might want to link to the Weld thunderstorm of three summers ago: http://webscheduler.net/healthstarlaser/Family%20Pages/2004/Weld8-11-04storm-exp.mov
Nice work!
