I think we should open our arms and hearts, and welcome new residents to our beautiful city.


While I realize there are a number of TV'ers that have purchased more than one house here, I'm thinking for the majority of us 'frogs'...resale value isn't really an issue anyway.

"Let the kids worry about it"...is my position.

As far as it being so crowded, particularly during peak season, I also don't worry about that too much as the seasonal folks do go away for a while and pay the same fees as us full-timers...even though they don't use the facilities year around (thanks for that Barefoot ).


Even with warts and all, it's still overall a great place to live so I am certainly not going to be selfish and get an attitude of... "I found mine, you go somewhere else."
