Summer Day at Pine Lake | Photograph | Wisconsin Historical Society
A view of the Pine Lake property of George Brumder, with the boathouse at far left. The smoke above the boathouse is from a steam water pump. There is a hose with sprinklers connected to it in the center of the lawn area. An unidentified man wearing a straw hat is standing with one foot on a wire bench conversing with Hugo Maerker, who is sitting in a canvas deck chair in the shade of trees. At far right is another bench, a hammock and two chairs. Pine Lake is in the background. On the reverse of the photograph is written: "View of lawn and boathouse with steam operated water pump. Taken from present walk leading from Emma Brumder's and Gertrude Merker Winkler's home. In distant trees to far left note Thekla P. Brumder's present home (1960)."
