I would be very disappointed to find myself quarantined on Bear Island for the entire summer.

True, but you have an alternative, something others might not have.

I think he was being sarcastic with that comment.

I always though the islands might be a good way to survive the zombies. Food, water, isolation.... Good until the guy with the ar-15 shows up and takes it from me.

You live on a island in NH. Should you not have your own AR-15?

Awww. Now everybody knows.

BTW, NH RSA's prohibit the "discharge of firearms" on Lake Winnipesaukee islands. It appears potato launchers and RPG's are OK.

Can you provide this RSA?

There are rules in regards to discharging firearms in relation to permanently occupied dwellings, and rules that prohibit hunting on islands but I have not seen anything that prohibits target shooting. Just curious to see as I cannot find anything that says as much.

Opinion: If the Corona Virus takes serious hold in this Country then I can envision the stock market to fall further which will likely "weaken" Real Estate values (especially the higher end of the market).

The Corona Virus death rate is hovering a bit above 2% at this point.

Off the Real Estate topic: The Corona Virus is affecting sales of Corona Beer (per a recent news article). Hard to believe, but true. It will be interesting to see if the brewery of Corona Beer will be able to survive this situation.......

Actually, I think the prohibition is on hunting deer and bear on islands (with either firearms or archery) with the exception of Long and Governors Islands in Winni. Hunting turkey's are ok, and when I was speaking with a Conservation Officer in the past he was saying he's always wanted to turkey hunt on a specific island but hasn't had the chance yet.

Default island prices

The way the stock market is going, island prices could be lower soon. Bond market signaling recession.

If potato launchers were not allowed I would have been in a lot of trouble...

Tip- clear pvc barrels rock!

If you could come up with a stepson launcher, I'd be forever grateful!
