    I remember we used to play sports against Evergreen from time to time, as well as Rosemarin, Blueberry Hill and I think one called Lebanon - I know there were others but I can't recall.

    Mike - I think you got it!  Pinegrove, that really rings a bell as the one on the corner of Bakertown and Seven Springs. Those are great memories you have of the softball games. That must have been a blast for the fathers. I remember that the dads would always get together on Sunday (maybe Saturday) mornings for a pick-up softball game.

    Well Gentleman! obviously my colony! Hillside was my favorite, Sunnycroft was second! Manny your correct there was one called Lebanon, there was also Carmel park, Paradise park , Colonial Villa. Actually those three are still there.  I took a ride up there this past July first time in over forty years! there smaller but still there. Tel Aviv was another colony and I believe there were at least two more. As far as the colonies that were abandoned it was amazing, to see what mother nature took back. The entrance to sunnycroft you can barely make out the stone pillars, there covered up pretty good and the abandoned bungalows in some of the pictures on this sight are either gone or just buried in the woods along with Evergreen, know that I know its name! thanks Doug, I remembered a colony being there across the road. Hillside was on Owens drive there is about five private houses on that property now.
