  You would be suprised how many in those big houses cant really afford them!  Many cash in life insurance policies take loans out on their primary residence to be able to come to the lake.  Only to find out a couple of years they really can't afford the exzuberant lake lifestyle. Few houses bought 10 years ago have the same owner today.  I feel very fortunate to have had a great neighborhood of fulltime homeowners for 18 of the last 20 years. Then with the closing of the mill and the smaller bussiness associated with the mill things changed. People moved for employment reasons and things changed. Homes sold to weekenders then 08 came and people started renting these homes to vacationers (VRBO)to make ends meet. These weekend renters and vacationers have no vested interest in our lake or area!  They bring their groceries, they dont buy clothes, or weekly necessites. The come play,PARTY, trash the islands and the lake, and go home!  I imagine this is what Tuscaloosa is trying to stop VRBO in their city. 

I too have been here since 1963, when we could venture to youngs island and see maybe 5 boats in a day. That was considered a lot of traffic. I know things change but seldom do they change for the good. Oh well enough of my crying. I did get to live in the good old days!
