Swim #18: Farm Pond, Sherborn, MA

August 16, 2010 -- I am so happy to rediscover Farm Pond!  My family and I came here many times in the early 1970s, until the town of Sherborn closed the parking lot to all but town residents.  Such a tragedy!  Almost 40 years later, I find I have a vivid memory of the bathhouse, but the beachfront doesn't look familiar at all.  What I do remember is how clean and clear the water was (and still is!)

I came here today with my friend Judy (of "Instant good mood" fame).  We parked a mile or so away and rode our bikes in.  A lovely, lovely lake, and we claim we will come back soon.  This would be a perfect lake for swimming across.......
