Provisions should be made in the park for persons with disabilities; no arguing there and thank you for your service to our country.

Don't debate that ever! Inaccessability to those park areas by those of us that have handicaps because of our patriotic efforts to this country is the reason for the changes. Don’t debate that ever!

For example, the allure of North Bar Lake (-pre-parking lot, board walk and restroom-) was that it seemed “untouched”, out in the middle of nowhere, natural, non-commercial etc., etc. People would just park along the two track and go have fun….except when you have to fish out a 6 foot 7 Saron Lincoln! The words “to pave a new parking lot for Glen Haven’s popular beach destination” is like nails on a chalk board. Now, you know me, I’m all about spending money creating jobs, being the capitalist pig I am…..and I’ve never been one to hinder economic development, capital improvements etc., but sitting here in the Arizona desert, day dreaming about the county, it’s pristine natural setting…somehow paved parking lots do not enter the equation, much like McDonald’s does not fit next to Art’s. I do understand though, that without determined parking areas that people will unknowingly park in areas that they shouldn’t. So I get the reason for it and I’m sure there will be replies explaining how ridiculous I’m being…. Yes, I may be whining and what does it matter, I don’t even live there…but for some reason, North Bar never seemed to have the same feel after the “improvements;” to me anyway….but I still love going…. This is by no means to slam Mr. Ullrich. From what I can tell he is a great asset to the park and I really like the remainder of his plans. Basically, I’m just a little bored today, too much coffee (Folgers, sorry Mike) and wanted to see if I could bother anyone back in good ‘ol GA.….great article Jacob! Keep up the good work!
