Cedar Beach Update
There is a very long and slightly complicated review of the Cedar Beach access but I will try and sum it up as best as I understand it. Everything was going along good this Spring when the land owners the Abrahamsons decide to sell the right of way to the Town. In the mean time other land owners came forward and were blocking the Sale. The original agreement with the Town and the Abrahamsons was due to expire on June 30th. Because the agreement was stalled and went past the deadline that contract was basically over. In the mean time the Abrahamsons have sold the property in question and the new owner has no intention of letting it become a public right of way.
As far as I can tell we are bascically back to square one and the Cedar Beach group is faced with the challenge of litigation and looking to raise $100,000 by Labor Day. I think we should all have different beach plans for the next few years.
One of the things that I like about this time of year ( besides going to Stovers Cove on Fridays) is
all our regular guests. They have been coming and going all month. I Love to see how it is like old home week. The guests mingle with each other because they have been all coming at the same time for years and then they welcome new guests with all their favorite spots and places to eat. Some keep in touch with each other over the year and some just pickup their relationships here like they were next door neighbors all year. Some have bought property in Town but we are OK with that because then they send the overflow here.
I am not going to say how Hot I am right now, it has been 90 here all week. Hotter than Texas!
This is Maine, bring back our sea breeze and cool nights. It isn't bothering the guests though, No Vacancy for the next 14 nights.
Blessings, Alicia
