What’s a family memory that still makes you smile?
Oh, definitely our summers at the lake. We’d pile into this old station wagon, the kids in the back with their snacks. They’d ask if we were there yet before we’d even left town. And we had that blue cooler. The lid never closed properly, but somehow it always kept the ice.
What do you remember about arriving at the lake house?
That screen door! It stuck, and you had to give it a little shove with your hip. Every summer we’d say we were going to fix it. We never did. The kids would drop their bags and run straight down to the dock.
What was an ordinary day there like?
Well, I’d take my coffee out onto the porch. Sometimes I got ten minutes on my own. Not always! Then somebody needed a towel or couldn’t find the fishing rods. They’d spend hours in the water. We’d call them in, and they’d say, just five more minutes.
What made those summers special for you?
It was the time together, really. No schedules, no rush. By dinner they’d be starving, with wet towels over every chair. Just long days, good food, and everyone round the table, tired and happy. It wasn’t fancy, but it was perfect.

Oh, gosh, yes. Definitely our summers at the lake. We used to pile into this old station wagon. The kids would be in the back with their snacks, asking if we were there yet before we’d even left town. And we had this cooler — the blue one, I think. The lid never closed properly, but somehow it always kept the ice.
The house wasn’t fancy. I mean, it really wasn’t. The screen door stuck, and you had to give it a little shove with your hip. Every year we’d say, right, we’re going to fix that. We never did. Funny, the things you remember.
In the mornings, I’d take my coffee out onto the porch. Sometimes I’d get ten minutes on my own. Not always! Then somebody would come looking for a towel, or asking where we’d put the fishing rods. And that would be the start of the day.
The kids spent hours in the water. We’d call them in, and they’d say, just five more minutes. You know how that goes. By dinner they’d be absolutely starving. There’d be wet towels over every chair, and someone always had a bit of sun on their nose.
What made it special? It was the time together, really. We weren’t trying to fit everything in. Just long days, good food, everyone round the table. I can still picture that table. It wasn’t fancy, but it was perfect.

Every summer, we’d pile into the old station wagon and head for the lake. The kids had their snacks in the back, and we had the same beat-up cooler that somehow always kept the ice.
There were no schedules, no rush. Just long days, good food, and everyone around the table at night.
1We swam until our fingers wrinkled, then wrapped ourselves in towels on the dock. Someone always called us in for dinner.
By evening, everyone was gathered around the table, tired and happy. It wasn’t fancy, but it was perfect.
