Getting to the water isn't the problem, getting to the house from other commitments is.

I have a lake house, but it's 2 and a half hours away from my real house, so I only live there on weekends in the summer / sometimes a week at a time..

I have a lake house and it's only 15 minutes from my real house. I go there pretty much everyday from may to october.

If you can pull it off I would definitely recommend living on a lake that you can wakeboard on. There is nothing like making a last minute decision to ride. Putting the boat in the water and having a quick set

I live 2 miles from the launch where I store my boat, does that count?

I'd give up the left one to live on the water.

(andrew_moreton)

thanks for the compliments. We love living here.

Gordie, Its about 250ft vertical down. I can put in stairs or a tram, but we have a private road at the bottom of the cliff, so neither is necesary.

Got to run, time to for a pull

(acurtis_ttu) · (acurtis_ttu) **Join Date: May 2004** 07-25-2006, 12:57 PM

I thougth I'd be on the water more but the 45-1hour commute limits my time int he winter.

I dont live on a lake and cant go anytime I want, I have to go to my parents house. Which so happens to be where our boat is and where I go every weekend. As you can see only a short walk to the pier, but its about an hour and half from my place to get there. Hopefully will be moving closer when my wife finishes school.

Loaner boat in the pic, we have a blue/yellow X30 instead of the black/yellow one pictured.

And an aerial shot my dad took.

Drew,

So that's what it is like to win the lottery. VERY nice. I have dreams like that! Parents want to adopt a 48 y/o boarder. I will bring another boat!!

Thanks guys, my parents would appreciate it. They live on the Eastern Shore of Maryland and it takes 3 guys on riding mowers a hot one to cut the grass, all 6 acres of it.

I doubt they would adopt anymore kids they have a hard enough time getting rid of my brother and I. If you know what I am saying.
