Jottings #2 10|5|14 Blog #5


  • warm
  • welcoming
  • sparkling water
  • seemed really excited to be on this ride
  • gentle breeze 
  • it made the lake seem so much more alive then it was the other day
  • so much history about one little lake
  • unfair taxing since the earliest point in time
  • the past was thriving 
  • socioeconomic status
  • there is two extremes, you're either extremely wealthy or you're not
  • all the houses on the lake were not a representation of what the houses in the town were like
  • they were majority vacation homes
  • people only stayed for the summer 
  • versus people who lived there year round
  • two completely different lifestyles 
  • they all lived together too 
  • imagine going shopping with someone who is on a completely different level of income
  • money is usually more power
  • Do these people who live there only for the summer have more say?
  • They people seemed warm and welcoming 
  • A lot of them waved at us
  • Is the town run by people who have more money
  • Sometimes they can forget the underdog or not understand the lifestyle of those who have less money than they do
  • Its tougher for someone who doesn't have money as a crutch to get up and support themselves in a town that has that much of a separation between the wealthy and the not so wealthy
  • corruption
  • so much corruption
