Does anyone remember George Sawyer and his boat, Lyman, Milky Way? George ran a grocery boat service to some of the island from Gilford area. He would deliver your shopping list right to your dock. I think he may have been related to Sawyer's Dairy Bar and also know he worked there at the service windows and kitchen. Those were great days on the lake. Also, there was a Steelcraftb that delivere propane tanks to the island residents as well. Always exciting when these boats showed up and there was work to do after they left, take groceries from dock to camp and move the propane tanks to the camp as well. An adult would handle the line hook up. As kids we were just the grunts! Oh, to be a grunt again!
