Someone should start a thread about all the good neigbors out there.Our neigbors are seasonal on both sides and we are year round except for a couple of Florida trips.Even though we aren't close social friends, we get along great and share everything.We use their dock when we have company and they (and the doggies) are welcome to use our beach.They are from the city so their dogs LOVE our lawn and they religiously follow with the scooper.
All of us pitch in if we see one another struggling with a boat,landscaping job,lost pet or come up short with a bottle of wine for company.
Didn't mean to hijack the thread...just another view from one of the lucky ones.

Samiam--

we are the same way exactly....I think most of the lakefront is don't you?

But when the question is asked..I need wise council, sounds to me like that may not be the case here. We communicate with our neighbors on all those issues and it is never an issue..infact come on over and stay awhile too,is always what happens...

An unknown on my raft will definitely be questioned.. I quite frankly have never had this happen or seen it... but

I am sure those people are out there (obviously!)

When my bike is on public ways... I certainly don't expect someone to use it ( & what return It???) I think not..

by the way that would be a great new thread... because we have great people in Winter Harbor & all around the Lake !!

Aren't we all here for the same reason?

We are VERY close friends with all our neighbors yet we wouldn't dream of using each other's docks etc. without asking if we needed to. I feel so lucky to have the friends/neighbors that we have.

We always let close friends/neighbors use our beach. They kept it spotless and an eye on everything, year round including motorcycle weeks. They would even help out putting the docks in and out. I left a drag there during the summer and would bring the tractor down during the enenings to rake out the sand castles that the children would build during the day. We've never had a problem there in over 18 years!
Whats that old saying about a little sugar goes a Long Way?...

... Well anyway, it's still working Great for us!

Look out for your neighbors when you can!
