By 1966, John's parents had sold their town home in Newport, New Hampshire, and lived for most of the year in what they called "The Cottage" on Lake Sunapee. Cottage is a bit of a misnomer. The living room, an outbuilding known as the "Stone House," and the stone walls surrounding the lawn, were the remains of the old Colgate estate on Fernwood Point. A dining room, kitchen, bathroom and living room had been added. A later addition was the "Sun Room" across from the bathroom, looking out on the lawn. John's youngest sibling, Uncle Tom or "Tee-bone," an avid photographer, took these photos on the lawn at a family gathering.
