I agree with Hazelnut, and I am an registered Independent.

I am returning to the lake this year for the first time in about 4 years. I grew up summering first in Melvin Village (1956) and then Alton Bay and aside from the last 4 years have seen the many changes on the lake and its shores.

The last place I stayed was on Rattlesnake which I did for about 5 years. That was the most peaceful place to be with the trail in the middle and the view from the top.

My own experiences a number of years ago with rude and ignorant boaters

stopped me from comming to the lake on a holiday weekend and a lot of weekends for that matter. I enjoy the weekdays and my current job affords me the ability to boat on weekdays. I fish and just cruise the lake. I respect all boaters rights be they power, sail or fishermen and even jetskis. We should all reflect

on what the lake means to us and try and be more curterious to others and help preserve the lake for the future of us all.

Again thanks to Hazelnut for saying it so well.
