Hey folks. Just another thanks to all who have been posting comments and reading the blog.
Its so difficult to tell what impact the blog is having on the community decision making, BUT some discussions at the open board meeting yesterday included...

1. the beaver damage along the lake
2. the lodge discussion
3. smoking in the Laker's Lounge
4. smoking ban in Maryland
5. bald eagle sighting (and we have the pictures to prove it!)

I'm happy to see these discussions come up at the meeting, of course... they've been posted here for a while
