The first 12 years [1970-82] we had this place it had no access other than a jeep trail and certainly no power. Aladden kerosene lamps, outhouse, bathing in the lake [brrr]. It's fairly small and generally fills up with relatives during the summer. A friend down the lake can never say no to visitors and has had to buy the camp next to hers for overflow - this year she built another semi-detached cabin for grandchildren. For some reason this part of the country is popular this time of year - maybe its the nights in the 50s and days in the 70s.
In february however, there is 24-30 inches of ice on that nice lake. During lumbering days a century ago, they actually laid a railroad out across the ice.
Also the food up here is limited; we have to make do with blueberries and lobsters. Our nextdoor neighbors do not want to be crowded so they bought all the land behind our camps and the island out in front - several hundred acres - makes it nice for us, we have about two acres - about 300+ feet of lakefront. Being a member of a summer colony is interesting - you certainly meet people you never would have otherwise. Downeast Mainers are also a breed unto themselves -some of their families were actually here before the pilgrims hit Massachusetts.
My wife and I went to school in Boston and NH - that's how we happened to end up spending our summers here.
The photo I use as an icon is the catboat Tyche - she was always sailed in the Florida Keys. Our boat on this lake is somewhat smaller.
