Dilemma over boats anchoring off our beach

What the National Park Service suggests at their campgrounds is to leave a cooler or deck chairs at your chosen site to suggest to others that the site is "taken". You can then go away in confidence to enjoy the attractions.

Sure, once in a while you'll find your "stuff" thrown in the woods, and a more-important, oversized RV in "your" spot, but it works most of the time.

Put out a swim raft at "your" beach and secure a chaise or swim-tube to the top of it.

It will appear "taken" and your "dream" will return.

Also thinking that a camera attached to the scope on the tripod is even better

If you dont want your picture taken -- go find another public place to hide
