We are the first of three lakes dammed for hydroelectric and the largest (32,000 acres give or take). Our levels can fluctuate during periods of heavy rain, but AP does a pretty good job of regulating water flow to balance all three lakes. In the winter they drop the level four feet to allow for surge and to keep down plant growth in the shallows. It gets to shallow to get in to our dock during that time, but there's sufficient other ramps close by to access the deeper water if you really want to fish.The dam gets opened in two weeks so the fish run can be installed. The water level will drop about eight feet (about half) until next spring, so I guess I’ll be traveling again, to fish.
New isn't always better.. I'm excited to get some of the lenses I loved when I took my favorite photos with
I loved the 70-200 f/4 vr. It was small, light and sharp. I remember paying $1200 for it used some years ago and now they are like $400New isn't always better.
The water level on the pond ("Great Pond" to use the correct Maine term) is lowered for the winter; docks don't need to be pulled out. You have to walk a short distance but ice fishing as well as snow-mobile/trail bike/SxS riding is possible. The communities arounf the pond also take the early winter to clean up along the shore.; In this case, it comes down in a couple weeks, then back up next spring. They did the engineering study this past winter so they should be good to go. The hope is alewives will be able to migrate in and provifde forage for the bigger fish. I believe the state currently stocks alewives; I suspect they will continue to supplement until the natural reaches sustainablilty.We are the first of three lakes dammed for hydroelectric and the largest (32,000 acres give or take).

Cool! Hopefully they won't ask for $$$ to cover shipping and handling. I've had that happen a few times.I have some exciting news, I may be published in a book for one of my photos! I'll be getting a copy of it sometime in September hopefully so I'll be sure to share it with y'all!
Hopefully not. He said he would send me a copy when its finished. Its just one artist putting this project together at a loss for tribute of something.Cool! Hopefully they won't ask for $$$ to cover shipping and handling. I've had that happen a few times.![]()
Well, my excitement is having been kissed by a honeybee. I went to get dog food, and when I got in the car, I felt a tickle on my cheek. I brushed it off and a bee dropped on the passenger seat. I got out, walked around the car, and opened the door, being the gentleman that I am, and it flew off, and we both went our merry way.
