My husband and I were excited when we purchased a lakefront home because we had a yellow Labrador puppy and we knew Labs loved the water.

我和丈夫买了一个湖边的房子，我奋。因为我养着一只黄色的拉拉多犬，我知道拉拉多喜欢。

But World War I and the need for steel mills on the lakefront to support the war effort delayed such plans for the park.

不过，一战的发生以及湖畔沿岸钢厂对战争支持的需要导致公园设立的计划搁置。
