Question What's in a name, anyway?

There are no loons at "Loon Mountain".

There is no port at "Port Wedeln". (And no wedeln skiing).

There are no "harbors" at "Wyanoke Harbors", and 70% of the homes at "Grand View" will have no view.

"Carroll County Landscapers" new office has no trees, and you can't see the lake from "Lakeview Drive" or the Lakeview Inn!

The old Akwa Vista site (renamed from Äkwä Vistä) has been replaced by "Meredith Bay NH"; otherwise, I'd have linked to the earlier site that instructs us that "Akwa" (not aqua) was an old Native-American word for "water". Hoo Boy!
