I caught Ann’s piece in the Frederick Post, ‘Musings on Summer’ and I was delighted to see a mention of Deep Creek Lake:
“One of my life’s most delightful treasures is when No. 2 son, a retired Army Reserve colonel who works for the Pentagon, calls me every few days on his two-hour commute home to continue our conversation that began in his childhood.
He called while I was planning this column. I asked if he had any musings on summer. In response he shared recollections of a boy growing up on the edge of Thurmont , and this column took on its own life. With Steve’s permission, here are his summer memories and sensations.
— The warm, musky smell of freshly cut grass on a summer day.
…….
— The amazingly warm and enticing smell of baking bread while driving through Cumberland on the way to Deep Creek Lake.
Jay’s note: I share the love of fresh cut grass, but my musing on summer at Deep Creek Lake is the ‘smell’ of the breeze on the water. There is absolutely nothing on Earth like it, and its the perfect combination of flowers, trees, and a marine smell that makes me take a deep breath and thank God for creating this beautiful area!
