When and What:  Casco Point around 1905. Paths but no streets as we now know them. Out in the boondocks there are also virtually none of the amenities of the city. No phones, electricity, and probably no indoor plumbing here either. Lots of fresh air and quiet . Almost no cars or motor boats other than the occasional steamer. A few times per day the whistle of a distant steam locomotive could be heard as it passed on it's journey to Mound or Minneapolis. Minnetonka's wooded shores were famous for their fish and game. At night tourists would sit in quiet conversation, and listen to the sounds of loons on the lake.
