Yet another daily reader/nonposter. My screen name is taken from a boat of the same that I owned back in my college days (late 70's early 80's) and kept in Alton Bay. Have been comming up to the lake (Alton area) my whole life. I belive my "first" trip was actually when my mother had that special gleam in her eye. Now that I think of it my childrens first trip was most likely the same. Now I usually bring my own family up for at least a week or two in the summer as well as numerous weekend visits. My father has a place on Alton Mountain (one of the "early" settlers to that area). My mother has "little cottage" on Smith Point (West Alton) she bought in the mid 80's.
Reading the forum is my favorite lunchtime activity from my place of work here in MA. Helps keep me "sane" and up to date on the happenings at the lake. So I must thank all the usual contibutors for thier posts and pictures and information about my favorite place.
I was born and still live on the south shore in MA with wife and three children. My parents were smart enough to move to NH, I apparently have not attained that level of wisdom yet - but hopefully am getting closer.
