The "Board Walk" is actually lust THAT and it now stretches from one end of St. Christopher's Beach to the South Pier at the 'Old Beach', connecting the two playgrounds. I was very surprised to see so much gravel instead of the sand, but even though it changes every year - stony or clear - you take what you get! Every year our 'Boys' have had to work hard to make it nice and although I have never spent any time there, my large family has enjoyed it. When I was a youngster Lakes St. Clair or Erie were the nearest patches of water - I saw one of them at the Sunday school picnic - once a year! So I am not a swimmer even though I love being near the water. November of '46 was my introduction to Goderich. Icy cold winds, the roar of the lake day and night - I wasn't -too happy with it all. But the Spring! We lived just around the corner of Wilson St. and we used the end of Britannia Rd. path to the beach. It was the scenic route - believe me - and we slid - SLID down the path - you couldn't stop - got alI wet, but it was fun. From then on that path was well used. There was just a short piece of narrow. roaddown there then - if you took the car. The trees hung over the path and the stones filled it. The beach, then, was nice and sandy mainly because, nearby, there was an old JAPDIN To all those who so generously remembered me in many ways during my recent illness please accept my sincere appreciation The good wisf es 0 of so many friends, surely helps speed one s recovery Thanks again Ruth 25 SYMES We wish to thank Doctor P G Salsbury Doctor T A Steed nurses and staff at Clinton Public Hospital for all their excellent care.

You couldn't walk on it as it was worn down to the supports which you could barely see. But, as a friend was saying - this and the old "sand bar" that was a little farther down, saved the beach. I called it a 'sand bat'. It was actually a stone bar! 4 st below Britannia Rd. It stret- ched many yards out into the lake and had cobblestones in ALL sizes, all over! It was marshy near the road and you could hear the big bullfrogs croaking and the shallow water slapping on the beach. I was told the frogs were the biggest you'd ever see - hut I had never seen any. One day I made up my mind I would sneak up on them - I even took my camera. So, I carefully eased my way from one lump of earth to another - I could -hear them talking - I was even getting my feet wet. I eased in closer - must have been right on top, almost, when a darned little red -winged blackbird started clicking every time I took a step. Finally all I saw was the splash - no frogs! Was I ever mad. Now that I think about it, I must have been crazy to even try such a stunt, Many years later that whole stone 'bar' was removed. There were plans for the big,building- for pre -water treatment. Many of you recall the old one with its high -in -the -sky chimney - that nice little building, always so neat, you drove around and around it. There were all the other buildings along one side - facing the dock. One that always made me smile was a little old backhouse, that leaned so badly, behind one of the little houses. I don't know how the rest of the places made out - often wondered about that! The little "treats" store is still there but all the others are gone. Think of all the good times you had in 'Bei-ts' place. If they had K(1 ever served hamburgers there it could have L, ben the start of the McDonald's chain. 2i That was the highlight of your day at the beach - cones and stuff. The change -rooms were there too - all gone - but fun memories! The kids of those days are mostly grand- ' parents now, but they will never forget how they learned to swim there and how Bert tested them by their swimming across the harbor and back. They were all good swim- - mers and good sailors too. Now, they're all' good kids, scattered all over Canada and other countries. But they still try to get 'home' as often as possible. The Chases - Abe and Muffin - had their son, his wife and nice family home for a short time from the West. Things were sure lively for a while. But then, that is one lively family. Love them! Have a care, enjoy each day. Love, Martha.
