The area is thriving like never before and lots of money is being spent. I guess the eyesores have to come sooner or later. I just don't like folks thinking they own the water that their eyesore borders. It was here way before you were, and will be when you are gone.

It's only been 20 years for me, and with the amount of change I've seen, I can only imagine what you've seen in 40. I know, and accept, that change is inevitable. But change can be managed properly. I of course understand progress, expansion, etc., but it can be done in a fashion that is more respectful of the natural beauty of things, I prefer that. That's all. No feeling of "owning the lake". Just a preference and a hope.
