I hang out on Rattlesnake Island every chance I get at least 100 days per year. My schtick is taking pictures for PhotoPost, hosting Snake Eyes and the Ice-in/Ice-Out pages and the Lakecams pages.... all with the generous contribution of webspace by winni.com.
I came to Winnipesaukee after buying an old boat from my boss and renting a friend's island property for two weeks in 1999. The late Island Guy and I bought a little camp on the broadside of the island... and I cannot not get enough... it never gets old! I am also one of the original Babes on Sleds... I am sure the others will check in here. I read this forum daily... sometimes much more than daily. IG ![]()

Some members might think my avatar and name speaks for itself.Actually,this is the name of my water thrusting,badass PWC.Grew up in Manchester NH.First came to the lake in 1960 as a little ankle biter.We would stay at my uncles camp by the Kona farm.I've been spending weekends at the lake for the last 25 years I guess,mostly using my friends.Hey,what are friends for?I spend most days on the lake heading to different friends places to bother them.Right Seaplane?Most of us end up by Timber Island rafting on a classic Winni summer day.It's so tough having to do this all summer.What a fun thread!Great to hear other peoples connection to our WWW:the Wonderfull World of Winni.We must thank the great webmaster Don for this fantastic site!

Own an island and first name Al.
Family started on Winni. when my folks visited friends on nearby island and they remarked, "why don't you buy that place, it's for sale." Dad did, Thanks Dad. That was 60 years ago. Sure has changed a lot. Mostly new folks building and several of the same families still carry on the tradition. Now training the grandkids in the joys of island living, Opening and closing, cleanup and so forth. Soon they will be old enough to actually do some of it. ![]() |

My avatar is one of the standard ones that surprisingly, at least I think, looks somewhat like me, brown hair, beard.
My last name is Polish, long, and, according to many, somewhat difficult to pronounce. I was one of the only people in my high school gym classes that was called by my first name (most coaches used only last names back then). Most people trying to call attendance would go "Jeff"......and start spelling "K...", and I would say "here". So it sounded like my name was "Jeff K". I noticed that "jeffk" is often not taken when registering online in different places and started using it. My car license plate is also JEFF-K. |
