My great-grandfather purchased property on the lake in the late 1800's. My grandmother willed a small portion to each of her grandchildren, so I owned two blades of grass and three grains of sand. After a while, it became unwise from a financial standpoint to keep it, but it was fun while it lasted, and I still cherish going up there even if it's "just" renting.

The lakeshore development is very disappointing. I remember being able to look toward Rattlesnake and not seeing many lights. Frequently, it looked like campfires twinkling over there.
