PictureADOPTED by DAVE TOBIN
Today's story and "Little Gem" is being brought to you by a long time family friend, Dave Tobin.  
This picturesque scene is a place dear to him and his family from Upper Dam, Maine.  Upper Dam sits on the shores of 2 huge lakes, Mooselookmeguntic, (Don't you just love that name?),  and Upper Richardson.  His sprightly 83 year old Aunt Jean and Uncle Linny, 86, acquired this "camp" in 1953 but, Aunt Jean spent every summer of her life in this community of summer homes.  Her father, Leon McIntire was a guide and trapper in the area and a WW1 expert marksman and evidently quite the character.  For all of you geo cache techies there is one called Leon's Bench in the area.  Dave, maybe you should put all your grandkids on the hunt for it this summer when you and your family go to visit this little piece of heaven on your annual trek from Colorado to the wilds of Maine!  Hope Aunt Jean and Uncle Linny enjoy this "little Gem".
