We finally got power back at 6Am this morning after 18 hours out. Thankfully the wood stove kept the house a toasty 76 degrees. We took a ride around the lake today. Lots of trees down. Several bob houses at the Long Island bridge (Trexler's side) were blown into the water and smashed. A very large white pine landed on the house which is the office of the Long Island campground. Lots of trees down in the Kona neighborhood on Long Island.
The majority of the bob houses seem to be in Center Harbor instead of Meredith this year. It certainly isn't lke last year. I think many folks heeded the caution of the "officials" and new stories. We did notice some "Darwin's theory candidates" fishing on the edge of the ice under the Gov. Island Bridge. I mean literally 2-3 feet from the edge of the ice!!! Not too many in Alton Bay or Wolfeboro Bay. One jackpot area is 19 Mile Bay, lots of trucks, ATV's and houses. I hope we don't hear any bad news.
