7 fiw ae loaded from trailer and Ah end of the first ties- First the boat must be day weekend of the and just in time for I doubt that moat people could hove lasted through another day of rest at the cottage With calloused hands barked shins and aching backs all proof of the softening influence of a winter in town you settle back into the comfort of an upholstered chair At least that ordeal is over the cottage is opened for this year There is one thing hat can be said in favor of spending a spring weekend at cottage After that everything at home no matter how shabby or drab takes on a hew air of elegance and luxury If you make that visit early enough it will save endless hours of work at home No longer will you be dissatisfied with the dining room draperies or feel that the living room needs to be redecorated You will sigh softly grateful that you have draperies None of the springs in the chesterfield jab you when you fall into it so what more is wanted you reason Yes you will say to your self as you raise your weary head and gaze around This room is just fine the way it is I wonder why I thought it need- alterations this spring The first holiday weekend falls into four parts First there is the preparation This phase can take anywhere from a few days to several months There are the outofdoors enthusiasts who be gin planning the spring opening shortly after they close the cot tage in the fall They make de tailed plans of alterations to the cottage This type doesnt have a fiveyear plan but one from here to eternity They list the necessary provisions and spend the intervening time dreaming about last summers fun and planning for this summer This first phase includes such activities as the demotlvballing of quilts and blankets after winter storage The provision of at least three types of ward robes for each member of the family is a minimum require ment This early in the season you must be ready for anything from snow to swimming and of course there ever a holi day weekend in camp without some rain Next comes the second stage the trip to the cottage For some this is nothing more than hop ping into the car if there is still room for any passengers For others it requires the load ing of a trailer and a boat for the long haul Regardless of the organization given to the first phase it usually requires much manipulating of children dog and bundles to fit everything into its space Invari ably on the first few trips each spring before the routine has become established the entour age leaves the driveway minus at hast one necessity He turning for that everyone again waves gaily the neigh bor children or at least thoir dog if there Is no one else pres ent for the voyage party Farewells are said to the garden and everything else that comes to the childrens attention and away you go again Any thing forgotten by this time re mains quietly at home for the weekend Again this second phage can be for rather uneventful and brief for those who must complete their trip those are Next it be loaded with the hundreds of as sorted bundles and parcels which filled the luggage compartment trailer and every spare nook of the car Finally the trip across lake must be made to the cottage Safe ashore once more the un initiated might sigh with relief thinking Well at least that is over You have arrived But have you There is still the task of unloading the boat and carrying everything up the hill to the cottage After the eighth or ninth trip with boxes and duffle bags far from having be come accustomed to it you arc toying with the idea of leaping from the nearest cliff or refusing to budge unless someone carries you up the hill Just then some one says that everything is in camp You dont have to go down to the boat for another load But before you have time to rejoice someone suggests that you can either cut wood for the fire or bring up a pail of water Your restful weekend in camp has begun The third phase of the holiday has arrived and re gardless of your attitude of mind at that moment you are stuck with it You are in camp and there you will remain for the weekend The weekend stretches into nightmare of activity from that moment The docks have to be put into place tho boat varnish more wood cut more watcx hauled and the cottage dont forget it It has been complete ly and all in one weekend Hut fortunately there are some pleasant aspects to this holiday weekend There is tho annual meeting of the cottage owners association where constructive thinking is done on such com munity projects as the improving of the parking lot or the road Into the lake There is the to renew acquaint ances with other properly own ers at the lake whom you have nt seen since last season There is time for walks in the woods with the new growth showing a soft misty green on the poplars and birch and the trilliums making patches of color on the carpet of moss There is the rustling sound of leaves as you tramp back to the beaver meadows and the exhilaration of being alone in your boat you across the lake The final phase of the week end the trip home is a quiet one Everyone is exhausted the children and the dog are asleep Now you have time to think back over the past few days No oilier weekend in the sea son is quite like this one There vill be rain on the roof in the of the night There he dancing on the lakes surface There he more heaver and racoons sighted There will be the eerie call of the loon and whippoor wills repetitive Time and time again these experiences be repeated during the sea son but they are all so new on the first weekend after a winter In town thai they are compensa tion for the bruises and bumps of the long holiday weekend HOME AND SCHOOL SPONSORS DANCE Approximately was raised at the Old dance by the
