Upthesaukee - Granite State Potato Chips is still there and they still do refills.

Lessons learned:

How to change a fuel filter, spark plugs, lower gear oil - basically how to save $100.00 plus for a tune-up.

The best way to start a camp fire - fold newspaper in half diagonally, roll up loosely and tie in a knot. Place a few of these in an empty 12 pack (soda or beer). Makes a great fire starter.

Soaking spark plugs (from an outboard that spent 6 months under water) in turpentine will get the motor to start on the first pull.

Take a banana, make a slit in it with skin on, place marshmallows and chocolate, wrap in aluminum foil and place on the campfire. MMMMM.

Island people are some, if not the, nicest, friendliest, most helpful people I know.

So many more things that I can't think of right now.

What a great thread Island Girl
