We left early to have breakfast at Jackie and Larry’s lake cabin. This is when we found out GPS doesn’t do private roads. Nor do cell phones work in mountains. So…. We made it to Eden, then panic set in when all our modern technology failed. We found a General Store and they were kind enough to let us use their land line so we could call and get directions.Jackie is Sandy’s Uncle Clayton’s second wife. Sandy still considers her an Aunt. She is now married to Larry Larsen, and we were happy to have the chance to meet him. They live in a cabin on Lake Eden year round – and outside their bedroom is the most stunning view of the lake surrounded by trees with the Green Mountains in the back ground. The lake was still frozen over.
Jackie fixed us “Breakfast Sunrises” – their home breakfast specialty that consists of pan fried onion rolls, topped with Swiss cheese and fried eggs and mayonnaise. On the side we had fresh fruit, turkey sausage, donuts and orange juice. Breakfast was not only delicious, but we also didn’t need to eat again until supper!
Jackie retired from teaching school several years ago. Larry spent a number of years in the Navy as a Navy Seal. More recently he has had some health problems, but he is very positive of the recovery he has had. He attributes his recovery to the power of prayer. Jackie and Larry seem very content with the life style they have chosen, and we were happy to share that – even for such a short while.
