Linda and I had a "short cut" to the store. (There was nothing short about it.) When we took the short cut, it meant that we took the beach instead of the road. (up and over each dock and then around the hill where there were no cottages) Many times we would start out on the road and then say "Let's take the short cut" which meant that we left the road and just went around the hill, lakeside.
The hill on the point was a little difficult to navigate. There was a narrow path already around the hill which some former kids had worn into the side of the hill, possibly a generation before us. As time went on, much of the path fell away into the lake, making the trip really difficult, which we didn't seem to mind....we had to make our daily trip to the store to buy that penny candy.
If you are reading this and wondering about the location of this path. We lived on Provan Beach, which was a half a mile west of the Pelican Beach Resort/Store.

The long way to the store was also kinda creepy because we were literally hidden from view of the road or the lake. It was a short distance but in an all wooded area. I remember sometimes getting spooked and we would try to hurry but as Barbie said, it wasn't easily navigated.
