Yes you are right it could have been someone who walked all the way over from another part of the island.
Just because the person who posted originally said they wanted to be nice doesn't mean they had any intentions of doing so.
Just something to think about.
Guess we will have to wait and see just how this pan's out!!!
I hope I'm wrong and they turn out to be nice people.

BELMONT - I'm disgusted. I was completely blown away when I saw your posting and read your accusations. If you remember correctly, I was the original message poster, and no member of my family has done or said ANYTHING that even remotely resembles your accusations. How dare you imply it was us. Do you have any idea what kind of issues you could raise with a posting and comments like these simple-minded assumptions or maliciousness??!! I'm sitting here totally bewildered and know in my gut that you are indeed making this up to stir trouble. It's sick. You give ludicrous details and then are completely ambiguous. I was thinking you were just passionate for your "cause" in the first posting we had weeks back, and I gave you the benefit of the doubt! Now, I really, truly wonder. WHY would you ever make assumptions like this and post them for the world to see?? Shame on you for starting something that could be so potentially detrimental to my family and our property. You seem(ed) like a bright individual -- you knew you could message me about the so-called "incidents" to see if I knew anything about them, especially before you threw senseless blame??? You could have verified it wasn't us IF you had taken a few minutes to check. I would like to personally find out more details IF you speak the truth. However, I honestly cannot imagine what you note to be true. Either way, I cannot understand your thinking and your course of action. What are you trying to do here???? PLEASE, STOP!! Email me offline if you're really concerned with getting to the bottom of this issue. OR, you can just keep spewing this crap if your goal is purely to create trouble and breed resentment where there should be none. I thought that I made it pretty clear that I was looking for a good solution for everyone, but here we go again.
I could spend the next few hours outlining the details of what we've experienced on the flip side of this issue. Like the three kids drinking in the smaller cove at sunset with their jetskis pulled up into the woods, a radio blaring, and Pringles tins and beer cans-a-plenty left behind the next morning (an anchoring boater actually called marine patrol on them b/c they disrupted their peaceful anchoring spot)... or the dog that launched off one of the many boats (within feet of the sand) and lunged through the treeline after us and our dog on our way to use the beach... or the gentleman who inadvertently exposed himself to my nieces when he came on shore with swim trunks already unzipped for what he thought would be a private toilet retreat... or the family with chairs, cooler, and radio set up for the day directly under the new No Trespassing signs!! DOES ALL OF THIS MAKE YOU HAPPY??? Put yourself in my shoes and you'd never think that any of this was anything less than inappropriate, illegal, or simply frustrating. We have stayed cordial through all of these situations and many more like them because we met SO MANY amazing, polite and understanding boaters through the first posting who made us want to work with them.
Your generalizations about the boats being 40 feet from shore are nonsense. Try 10 feet, even 5 -- big difference when one wants to swim. Your stories about the rope swing are nothing but BS. It's been in full use day in and day out, 8AM to 7PM. Nobody has said anything to the users, who, let me remind you, are trespassing on conservation-protected land. I think it's GREAT that these kids have something fun like this to enjoy. KEEP IT UP: The more attention YOU bring to all of this, the more YOU'LL spur someone like the LRCT to take more severe action to protect the property. THEY have the right to close down the swing in particular. YOU will be the one to ruin the fun for everyone, buddy. Pat yourself on the back. Job well done. Unbelievable what lengths you would go to just to support "your cause". You may want to find another, because you're doing anything but to help your fellow boaters! You need a lesson in tact and a dose of truth serum.
FINAL SUMMARY: MY FAMILY WAS NOT INVOLVED IN ANY BIT OF YOUR FOOLISH ACCUSATIONS. If you want anything productive to come of this, you'll end this ridiculous string and pursue your issues offline.
