Vacationers & noise
People on vacation have to cram everything into a 1 week time frame.
The problem with having a place on an island is you pretty much have no law enforcement or fire dept but still have to deal with the problems.
As for quiet hours most towns are 10pm to 7am and snowplowing is exempt from this even if it means running a snow blower.
I plow and try to keep it to a minimum but there is always someone who will be awakened especially if I have the sander running.
I was up in northern Maine at the tip of Moosehead Lake and was told this story about noise makers.
Group came up from Mass with loud sleds and drove around the camps at N.E Carry till well after midnight. One camp owner kicked open the door at 5am rousted all the drunken sledders up out of bed. Pretty much informed them they were hours from any town or law enforcement. Then informed them if they ever bring their loud sleds back and run them till the wee hours of the morning the locals would take matters into their own hands while showing them his nice shinny gun.
To the best of my knowledge they never returned.
Sometimes the best way to make your point is the direct way. Now a day there are way to many laws being passed to protect us when in reality all there doing is protecting the bad guy.
