I walked around the lake and took short videos of the low water level. Historically low level. And yes it feels like walking on the bottom of our loved lake.

Summary of the history of this property. Some of you remember and miss PizziGando. Some miss The Square. The Red Lentil was pretty great as well. Sad to see all those businesses go, but let's hope the new establishment will last many years. Let's support them. Thank you to all who let me use their photos.

This was amazing day in Sharon filled with music all over the town. Sharon Historical Society hosted 2 bands - The Devil's Rock and Tree and the sea. Our main museum as well as farming museum were so much fun and we were thrilled to see many people having fun. And we added bunch of fun activities. This is just a summary of the day, and only a few short videos of the bands. Please view Sharon TV...

    I attended sacred Heart School from 1967 to 1972- I was the last graduating class. I remember Brother John he use to play basketball with all the Students during recess. He was at least 6 ' 3". Brother Peter Goode was my history teacher. My first year Brother Lawrence was my History teacher but he unfortunately succumbed to cancer. I stayed at the school my first two years and my last two they allowed me to become a day student. The Brothers were very strict but that Strictness /Structure provided me a good foundation for High School and College.

    When I was a little kid in the 70s that was the Pearlmutters house. I had been in it a couple times I knew it was an old house but no idea it could have been that old. It's amazing how they moved so many homes and buildings back then it couldn't have been easy. Thank you for letting me know.

    Another wonderful video of historic places in Sharon. I love the old small farm at the beginning of Cottage St. We played a lot of football games in that field before they put the homes there. It would look beautiful during the winter snow, The owners never minded us playing there. It was a nice property. It's very kind of you to make these videos. Thank you so much.

    Beautiful video. I love that part of the trail. The challenge as a kid was to hang off the wall at that sidewalk at the beginning of Cottage St. and cross from one side to the other in order to be one of the "big kids" that got to brag about it. That trail is such a beautiful walk we were fortunate as students at Cottage St. School to have a rep from the Audubon Society (a lady named Mrs. Sisson I think) to take us from class down to Mann's pond. She would point out the importance of the local wildlife that you could see then she had us get water samples and take them back to class and look at the life in the water under the microscope. We were so lucky to have someone come and take their time to do that. You video reminds me how important it is to appreciate a quiet walk in the woods. Thank you.
