Not just boats...
I agree the lake has been very quiet. We came across the broads from Mink to LSP at 7.00 PM on the night before Fathers Day and saw maybe 5 other boats. It was a beatiful calm evening. My wife and I both thought it was weird to see the lake so empty.
Besides boat traffic...
When was the last time you saw a big blinking light on Rt. 106 hawking NASCAR tickets for the race... it was still there this week.
I was at Lowes this past Saturday and the employees outnumbered the customers.
In spite of the best weather for many years, Bike Week was very quiet. A friend of my daughter was able to get a camp site in the Weirs without a reservation for Friday and Saturday night.
Simpliest answer IMHO is the cost of gas. As that cost goes up.. something else must go down.
