Re: one of the photos accompanying Thursday’s M section article featuring daytripping to local islands:
The picture on Page M6 on July 23 of a skateboarder catching a tow from a golf cart on the backshore of Peaks Island shows a lack of judgment on the part of those involved in the activity. It also shows a lack of judgment on the part of the Press Herald for printing it.
The backshore of Peaks is not an attraction at a theme park. It is a public roadway. What these folks are doing (which I admit looks like a lot of fun) is dangerous and without consideration for the safety of others.
In the future, the Press Herald should be more responsible in its portrayal of these islands.
