Year of the Fire Tower

Having spent every summer of my life at the cottage, I had never once climbed the Pequot Lakes fire tower. I decided on my 45th birthday it was time to make a change. Soren, with a bit of hesitation, and Sevi, the fearless mountain goat, and I climbed the 174 steps to the top. The trap door to the deck was locked but the views of the lake country were outstanding.
