I often read the threads, but am a rare contributor. I have been coming up to the area for about 25 years, since my brother and I bought a house together in Barnstead. Since then, I bought a separate place in Barnstead and then in the Wolfeboro area about 4 years ago (found the listing on this site). We always loved Winnipesaukee since we started coming north, but really began to appreciate the Lake when I bought a boat about 10 years ago. I enjoy coming up all year, cross country ski in the winter, boat May (or earlier when the ice and life cooperates) to October and just enjoy it all year round. My oldest is 25 and him and his sister have alot of fond memories from NH. As for the name, it is the name we use on the boat. It is a Gaelic mythological reference to the land where the Knights of the Red Branch and others wandered off to when their time came - - a land where they stayed forever young (just like Peter Pan's - - not Michael Jackson's - - Neverland). Thanks to all who post on this site for the great information I have gathered over the years.
