Everyone has a different opinion of their "happy place". Some love the ocean, some love the lakes, others love the mountains. Some like the hustle and bustle of city life and others like peace and quiet.
Different strokes for different folks.

Default It's the world we live in

There is no sense in getting upset over other's inconsiderate/inappropriate behavior. The die is cast. We have raised a generation plus of people who care more about themselves than for others. Loud music is but one example. There are many others. Just last week we were at Saratoga with my son and his wife and her family, and we were sitting on the park benches watching and listening to the races. It's pretty important to be able to hear the broadcast since late minute scratches and keen insights are announced. The picnic table behind us was BLASTING music I didn't particularly care for, too loud to hear the broadcast. My son wanted to say something, and my advice was to not bother, it would only result in unpleasantness. When I'm the voice of reason, something is wrong! Anyway, we dealt with it, although it was very annoying!

Talking South Pacific in New Hampshire...

Presently, it's 4 o'clock, overcast, two motionless boats, and quiet.

I'm relaxing to the sounds of ocean surf on the shoreline.

(Which is something you can't get in Idaho).



Where the waves originated, IDK.

Arrow Wake-Surfers Especially, Take Note...

While searching for answers to migraine headache "triggers"--which include florescent lights, LED lights, lightning, caffeine and MSG in foods--I came upon this passage:

Quote:
Other triggers for me are loud noises (including loud music), any strobe-like effect with lights (even driving along a road where the sunlight is shining through rows of trees, creating a strobe effect)
So if you suffer from painful headaches of the migraine variety, add this latest aggravating factor to the list...

Question tubing at night?

ApS asks "OK to go tubing in the dark if my navigation lights are on?"

This Coast Guard information table, Water Skiing Table 4.1, shows water skiing in New Hampshire is prohibited after sunset and before sunrise. The chart shows this is the rule in every state except for Alaska, Mississippi, and the unincorporated territory of Puerto Rico.

http://www.uscgboating.org/regulatio...p?id=17&title=

So, what about tubing? Does the same rule apply and prohibit tubing at night here in New Hampshire same as for water skiing? Anyone know?
