I vaguely remember, as a kid, my grandfather telling me that Queen Elizabeth (who coulda been Princess Lizzy at the time) once stayed at Bald Peak. Or was it that she was married to a bald peak?

Anyone? Buehler?

Maybe it was Princess Grace (local babe down here in Philadelphia...).

Of course, "back in the day," the photogs were limited to what would be the equivalent of a Brownie Star-Flash and cruddy zooms. But still. Anyone remember?

How about other notables visiting the big puddle? My folks have some pics of Bush Sr. on the Mount. I know that JFK's big brother (Joe, who crashed his plane in WW2) went to Wyanoke around the same time my grandfather was there. My GF's main comment was that Joe Sr. was a rum-runner, and his father-in-law, "Honey Fitz," was a criminal. Discuss amongst yourselves.

And what about bona fide royalty like Stephen Tyler and Adam Sandler? Any encounters? Mike Rowe from "Dirty Jobs"??? Bob Dole?

I, for one, once ran into Vic Nebulous, checking out Ratdog bumper stickers at "Stay Tuned" in Wolfeboro.

Anyone care to see me or raise?

Party on,
