I believe this may be Abington, MA at the Island Grove Pond. The White Structure in the back looks a lot like the bridge which spans it,(http://www.flickr.com/photos/bunkosquad/30028 2044/in/set-667536/) and the little stone hut is located at the same spot now, housing park equipment.

Ya Jeanne-Erin, it's definitely Island Grove. I saw this picture last night, so this morning I took a picture. The monument isn't as obvious in my picture as in this one, but I'm positive it's Island Grove.
The original might have been taken from on the ice.
