The "history of the lake" will only add another chapter. The railroad history, Kimball's Castle, the Lincoln Cottage, Lake Shore Park etc will retain their place in the (not very well?) documented history of the lake shore line. How many of you know where Peters' General Store was? What is there now?

I did not know about Peter's General Store. I do know the former post office in the Smith Point area was moved down the hill by the lake to its current location.

Moving away from the original topic, a new topic "The History of the Lake", limiting itself to shoreline properties only, and discussing what is now where what used to be there. An example would be that property my family owned in Winter Harbor and operated a summer camp (Camp Wyanoke) is now all single-family substantial homes (not quite McMansions, but close). And let's not forget Lakes Region Airport and Seaplane Base in Winter Harbor is now a single-famiy home.

Speaking of which, whatever happened to the Gilford Police Chief who may, or may not, have been involved with these two abusive criminals?
