A great neighborhood full of camaraderie and trust.

Now the cottages are year-round McMansions. Everyone keeps to themselves and occasionally calls law enforcement on each other. Lots of 'keeping up with the Joneses'. Out of Staters certainly are a responsible lot.
Pretty sure that PD was going to need to respond for someone being shot - not sure who called them.

F&G must be notified in an accident involving a snowmobile or OHRV when someone is injured.

The call to the PD for setting off his airhorn again and again every morning in evening... that was just foolishly bad behavior on his part.

These are all still small cottages/farms on a dirt road.
But other than people that don't live on the road using the road (public), it is now pretty quiet.
