A romantic landmark of the Campbell days on Apple Island was Ghost Walk, also known by more realistic residents as Cedar Lane. It ran from Grandma Campbell’s cottage north to a spot on the shore line called ‘High Seat,’ where one could obtain a scenic view of the lake. The wire in the tires at the left was used to string chinese lanterns during festive occasions.
