This is a simple minded post. It should be noted that there are a number of Eagle Lake affeciendos on this site, so they may get more enjoyment from today’s post, than others. When Spalding Tract was subdivided in 1914, the lake was approaching its highest water level. “The Strand” the town’s lakefront boulevard, was truly lakefront. Fast forward to 2020, the lake is far, far away as seen from the below photograph taken along the shoreline looking towards Spalding Tract.
