Every summer, Ron, Helen Kim Christy, Todd, Drew and sometimes my Mom (Herta)
would go to Stoddard, N.H. and stay at the Kerber’s cabin #4 on Island Pond for one
week. The first meal was this meal prepared at home and frozen. Hopefully, it defrosted
a little by the time we got to the cabin. We arrived at the cabin after stopping at a
grocery store and bought all the groceries we needed for the week. After we arrived, the
children made their beds when they were old enough, helped unload the car and then
changed and ran to the lake. I would put the New Hampshire meal in the oven at 325
degrees for an hour and a half to make sure it was done. Dinner was the New
Hampshire meal and a loaf of Italian buttered bread.

Everybody looked forward to this trip every year.
