Rick (who is anti guy) said he'd like to use them for target practice! So would I! As I once said, the only good jet ski is the one you are on at that moment. The rest? Nope! Our neighbors are good with fireworks for the most part but we've had a few loud parties down the way. And you're right -- loved your photos of the olden times. That's when I think most of our cottage life, when it was a little more rustic. Well, we still kind of live that way (but with running water!) but a small cottage, not the mega-houses where people try to duplicate their fancy down-state life. Oh yes, I need to read this one!Jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17482528482559445943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7155086611992337391.post-2584459867882892282023-01-29T20:54:40.472-05:002023-01-29T20:54:40.472-05:00and that's why we never wanted a cottage!!

When we had a cottage we found a small Michigan lake that wasn’t popular with motorboats, so it was very quiet except for fireworks on the 4th of July. The hunters/guns weren’t too close either.<br /><br />best… mae at maefood.blogspot.comMae Travelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13328946930935633113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7155086611992337391.post-6261260171288839052023-01-29T11:09:48.682-05:002023-01-29T11:09:48.682-05:00The book sounds like fun.

There are cottages all over England, without vacationers. That gave me a big clue. Then the photo of the little cottage (not at all like English ones) set me straight. Yes summers especially would have been full of visitors. To live there year round would have been a challenge I'd think.
