I agree with your sentiments regarding the lake. We have been coming here for 45 years, and my recollections of the early summers are very different from the atmosphere here today. Back then, it was quiet and peaceful, a wonderful place to escape city or suburban life, and just kick back. There was no light at Greens corner, Aubuchons had no phone, Heaths was either closed on Sunday or had limited hours, and nobody was screaming nonstop for a multimillion dollar rec center. Life was good….families enjoyed board games and other fun things, and nobody was hooked into cell phones and internet. Ah, yes….the good old days.
You could actually enjoy the lake on weekends without fearing for your life! If only we could go back in time for some of it.
