IVE miles west of Canaan, in thetownship of Salisbury, is one of themost attractive spots in all NewjBr ^^^Bp*^i England, Washining and Washinee, % -£!& 7£$lli tlie twin lakes of the woods. Tbese lakes are most accessible,since the Central New England Railway runs along their shores, fora long distance. For the accommodation of picnic parties andtourists, a flag station has been erected. All through the summer tiny dwellings of canvas may be seenin the pine trees beside the splashing waters. Gay boating partiesand jolly anglers alike grow sun-browned on these silvery lakes. The fame of Twin Lakes has spread far and wide, and so nearlyevery day during the hot summer months picnic parties, not onlyfrom adjoining towns, but as far as from Hartford and Poughkeep-sie, pass several hours in this sylvan spot. Beautiful drives girdle these lakes which are used constantlyby driving parties and wheelmen. 50 ^H
