A cold day at the Rockbrook lake

Nancy Carrier and her children, Henry and Helen, enjoyed a cold day at the frozen Rockbrook lake. We think this photo was taken in the 1930's.

We sure have had a cold winter this year in Brevard, but take a look at this photo from our archives. Can you imagine ice skating on the frozen Rockbrook lake? It looks like the Carriers were having a great time sliding around- they didn’t even need ice skates!  These days we drain the lake in the winter, but if we didn’t it would probably look just like this picture.
