April’s picture is of part of a Campground cottage… I liked the flower boxes on the fence and the splash of red on the door.  I took this in May 2012.

PS – I  came across this picture in one of my mother’s photo albums – just out of curiosity, does anyone remember the Providence House that was in the Campground until the 1960′s when it burned down?  It was located near the arcade entrance.  Here’s a picture from the early 1900′s.  My mother’s step family owned it… I believe the name was Knoop?
