I went for a walk yesterday to visit a very dear friend. On the way home, I climbed over the fence and snuck through her neighbors yard so I could walk back along the water. I hadn't been that way for over a month and was surprised to see how nicely the old Babich place has been cleaned up. The home and dock were sold years ago, it was turned into a business and the yard was completely overgrown. Not any longer !!! How nice it must have been to sit on the front porch on a warm summer evening and watch the boats passing by. And how nice it must have been for Spiro Babich to walk out his front door and be at work in less than 30 seconds. There was a ways right next to his dock so he could ease his boats in at high tide and work like crazy at low. It would still make a great home, except for one minor detail. The Tides Tavern is right next door and it does get noisy in the summer when folks are outside on the deck. But still, I wouldn't mind trying to live there just for a bit. Think how easy it would be to hop in your kyak and go exploring.
