The fun part is that it's water. Which is actually owned by the state. The blessing is, I not only own a piece of the lake, I also am a co-owner of a very profitable chain of NH liquor stores. NH...

I'd like to reply to this, but the kids in Moultonborough and Meredith have threads on taxes that have gone way off course. Wouldn't want that to happen here.

No stress?

So retirement has no stress, and you want to teach people to drive/dock their boat who admit from the start they don't know what they're doing? Now, that's stress!

Fords all have keypads. You can leave the fob in the car. Yes, somebody could smash the window. I think smashing the window is to steal visible contents. Of course, in some cars, smashing the...

Who uses keys?

My house has a keypad. My car has a key pad. Boat keys never leave the boat. I don't carry keys--It's kind of like writing checks... a thing of the past.

The BEAR

Hard to believe the Bear is ~60 years old. Anybody else remember the two wooden lobster boats that preceded her, the Camp and the Bear? "Change Day" was quite a bustle in Glendale. Dot's...

Good job Steve. Did the F & G remove the bear? Is there a second chapter here? 911 doesn't answer Mark Island? Guys like Steve make us all proud to be Islanders.

Yes, very picturesque. But, it makes me recall times when we weren't so environmentally sensitive and we only salted the strip down the middle of the road and the snow was gone in two days. Now, we...

In #627 above, is this really candid, or posed? Where is the photographer standing?

Island life is different. You'd be amazed at how many islanders have "permanent" home within 15 minutes drive of their mainland dock. Some can see their mainland home from their island residence.

If you mark your territory, will the bear stay away? Is the bear still on Mark?

This borders on being rude and inconsiderate of the two boats that collided off the tip of Bear Island, November, not so long ago. Suggest you not reply, just move on to something else. Thank you.
