South Down Shores

Some South Downers will probably disagree with me but the new www.wowtrail.org will be a big benefit for South Down. South Down will have direct access to this 9 mile long, pedestrian-bicycle-roller blade-cross country ski-no motorized vehicle, 12' wide-paved asphalt trail that will skirt the lengthy railroad, state owned, right-of-way, shorelines of Lakes Winnisquam-Opechee-Paugus Bay- Meredith Bay- Lake Winnipesaukee, from Belmont-Laconia-Meredith. It should be passing right through the heart of Weirs Beach over or next to the boardwalk and existing single, railroad track.

Could be a good time to start cruising those garage sales and go find an old ten speed, racing bicycle for the new Wow trail. No better way to stay in shape than bicycling, and a flat trail with basically no hills is easy enough that even older and out-of-shape, motor-boaters & motor-cyclists could benefit from the exercise. .

If nothing else, just picture the young teenage and 20-something women in their bikinis as they roller blade past the South Down waterfront on a hot & humid, July morning. Would you call that a local amenity for South Down?

Building that 12' wide x 9 mile long, asphalt trail, will be an excellent use for the proposed NH state gasoline tax increase, especially now that gas prices have plunged.
