Long before my parents bought the Round House in Spring Lake, this was a special place in our family. My great-grandparents lived in Spring Lake and farmed there in the 1930’s through the early 1960’s. I remember trips to Spring Lake to visit the old house, the trout farm, and the little lake. There is something so beautiful about this rural area. In fact, the lake (as it used to be before the trees were all removed) is one of the places I think about when something unpleasant is happening.
At the base of the Secret Garden there is a beautiful view of the Payson Temple.
I love the meandering pathways through periwinkle and oak in the Secret Garden.
The new house is nearly finished. Our fingers are crossed that we can eat our Thanksgiving dinner there.
