A Sunny Weekend Ahead on Grays Bay

sunflower

Grays Bay, named after Amos Gray (1824-1902). He moved to Minnesota from Pennsylvania after marrying Susan Chowen in 1847. He became one of the orginal land owners on the shores of Lake Minnetonka, and the Bay carries his name. Susan's brothers William and George Chowen homesteaded farms nearby. Deephaven's Chowens Corner still carries the family name.

-Just a bit of history.

Stay tuned for Minnetonka Ghost stories,"real'& imagined.
