We're So Fortunate!
Our currrent issue of Kiplinger's Personal Finance Magazine arrived this morning and the feature article is "Own a piece of Paradise".....about the scarcity of waterfront property in the USA and how difficult it is to find.... and afford.... this disappearing commodity. It mentioned places like South Padre Island, Texas, the coast of Maine, the Outer Banks of N.C.and many others. It made no mention of our beautiful Lake Winnipesaukee. But what it did bring to mind is that we as owners and vacationers have a truly distinct advantage over those "other waterfront people". We have the ability to look out our windows, walk out our doors and see this exquisite body of water we call Winnipesaukee.....but wait....we have the ability to look at this thing called the WWW and see our lake 24 hours a day, every day of the year. We have the BEST websites of any body of water in our great land. We owe those people like Don Hughes, and Island Girl and Island Guy (God bless him) and all the others who at great expense and time give us a view of our lake....no matter where in the world we are. We say thank you to all the photograpers who take the time to submit their views of their lake home. And we log on and and give our thanks (or at least we should)............Thank you, Island Girl
