Lake Schmake - it ain't the lake level - it's gas and mortgage prices.

Despite Chuck's opinon, which I respect, folks ain't gonna be able to
afford gas unless your in a position were it truly can't hurt you if
you spend $200 a tank for a weekend. Chuck's view is skewed by the
fact that he doesn't have to spend money getting his boat to the water
- he's in a whole different strata than those of us who trailer boat
or use gas engines.


That's true. It does take alot to get the boat splashed these days.
And when I moved here, it was a nice, country-ish type of drive to get
to Lanier. Then they built a HUGE freakin mall right in the way. I
remember still driving on the old road, thinking, what to hell are
they building a mall way out here for? Well, I guess someone knew that
if you build it, they will come:

It's nice to drive towing a boat through that hell!
