When is OCD not a bad thing?

Now that is a sore point! I live on Candlewood lake in Danbury CT. Because we are on the water we pay some of the highest taxes in town. But because the town considers my road private, we get nothing for it. No road maintenance, no street lights, no city water, no fire protection (covered by a volunteer firehouse), no mail (I have to walk 3/4 miles to the end of the road to pick up my mail.), and because only us old farts live here - no kids and educational services!

But then this is the view out my back window at sunset. So I shouldn't complain.

Maybe u can drift your A across the lake on a barge and avoid the road...

Beautiful view tho

Way to go, PGERHARDT.....my '30 was restored in 1980 and it's never been in rain or snow or on dirt roads (so far as I know since the previous 2 owners only bought it to park in the garage and look at it) and I aim to keep it that way!

Oh dear. Cars are to be driven!
