You guys keep saying the lake is yours, but it aint. Read it and weep!

I believe that you and Skip agree, it's just the way the post was worded, (with the capitalized word DO, and continuing on with 'but it ain't') others may read it literally and think that this one example of case law is the law.

It's sometimes very difficult to put in to words exactly what we are thinking in our minds and even more difficult to make it as clear and exact because we do not have the one on one interaction typing things as you do with face to face conversation.

I agree with everyone that Cabinfever has been more than patient, more than accommodating, and more than fair. It is my belief that Belmont Resident probably did not spend enough time writing and properly wording his/her post -- as I feel it was too judgmental, harsh, accusational and was not properly directed to the people they encountered that day. As I and many others have read it, it was directed at the "new owners" as Belmont Resident stated in the original post. It would have been in Belmont Residents best interest to have confirmed the people he/she spoke with were indeed the "new owners" and not made an assumption. When assumptions are made incorrectly they can hurt and offend many people -- as evidenced by the rehash of this topic.

I do hope we get the opportunity to read a post from Cabinfever that things were worked out between Cabinfever and Belmont Resident to both parties satisfaction.
