Hey Karl, you got it right about the prime real estate. Was going to do the 2.5 hr ride, say at 6 on Sat. but something happened. So I asked my wife to take a ride with me after lunch. In the meantime, I called the Ranger station to see what was what. She said the days selling was closed. I thought of going down Thursday morning, but after reading todays reports, I ain't. There are alternatives like you say.
Doing a mail-in can cause problems. How far back do they go to get a mailing list? I have had a sticker for some years. Does someone like me not get on the list because I didn't get one this year? How about people who want one but have never had one before? I think the Nauset way is the best. 3200 stickers at $100 equals $ 320,000. Is that enough for them to man a station like Nauset? I wonder.
Also, how can they limit one per household? What do you say to your kids or wife? They pay Federal Taxes too. The popularity of OSV's is the cause. Like Habs said $ 4.00 gas and $ 250 stickers could do the trick. Although it would be kinda funny to see dyed-in-the-wool surfcasters driving mini suv's powered by electricty.
Hey, not a bad idea. That would erase another b*%$h by the anti's that suv's cause pollution on the beach!
