But that was more info than I will EVER need....lol. As I stated, I am not a beach person. A trip every decade or so just to remind me why I hate it is plenty. I may make my 21st century trip this summer though, as my new neighbors have a condo somewhere in that area and have suggested a 'neighborhood trip' this summer. And I love being neighborly!!
What bothers me the most is folks on here claimng to love the lake, but all they talk about is property values and investment. I am a true Lake Lover but with a good bit of river rat in me too. Any water that is not chlorinated or salted will do just fine!! I also am a man of very modest means and was fortunate to find a deal on my place during the last drought year (2000). I am one of those that live up in a slough with 'summer water' that so many on here love to look down upon. I love it!!!!! I grew up spending weekends on the 'big water' in my Dads old double wide, and later years modest cabin. I actually swam to Veazey's Marina once from dads place, but you probably dont know where that is. I like it here with my summer water better. I can go anywhere anyone else can go on the lake and have been places most will NEVER see on the lake.
As for watercraft, give a nice slow pontoon any day. I have ridden them all and will ride a freinds waverunner a couple of times a summer, but only in the middle of the week. Actually I prefer to be on the water at night, quiet, peacefull, fewer people, cooler temps and great stargazing! I really hope you get out of Blue Creek more this summer. There are some amazing sites to see. Pack a lunch and head out one morning and just start riding the shoreline. Always remember to go all the way around a point or curve because more times than not it will open back up into another section of open water. The offer of a guided tour is still open. Enjoy the summer, it is shaping up to be a good as the low water levels will keep many away...lol.
