While messsing around with Google Earth today I found the long "lost" Old Page Mill Road.  This road, which leads to a lake, has been officially expunged from all current maps.  Officially, it isn't suppoed to be there..  That's what good aspect of the time machine quality to so many of Google's satellite views - becuase many of the images are decades old, you can find things on it that aren't supposed to be there.

We've heard stories from old timers that there is a lake nearby that was a wonderful place for boating, swimming and eating, complete with clubhouse and other amenities. But sometime int he past 15 years it was shut down because of envirinmental concerns.  It sits somewher ein the hills around here, not officially there, even though all the buildings and the lake are still there.
