My first job as a 15 year old was working in the kitchen of Hart's and I would drive there in a 13' foot whaler and never had a problem tying up for a day in front of Chase's Restaurant. Halcyon days, but life goes on and the old New Hampshire becomes more distant each and every day ...but such is the ways of a freedom. I have little use for the big lake anymore but obviously a lot of folks love it.
Ricky G, you are going to do what you are going to do but be careful and discreet and you'll likely skate by. Personally I see far more problems with lawns than small beaches, sand filters, fertilizers pollute. If somehow additional sand does find your beach I suggest that it be septic sand as it has far fewer fines and that greatly reduces the silt milkiness that follows dumping regular sand in the water.

Your post practically breaks my heart- those days!!!
Today, still, I love to recall running through the pine-tree camp grounds where we stayed, until 8:30-9:00 in the evening. Camp fire smoke would begin to fill the air as folks sat around the fire to enjoy each others' company- just for the sake of being together.
I used to catch craw fish/go night crawling, and sell them.
Jeez!
