I just can't help it. I love this town. This town is the closest to something I could have created for myself that is perfect. I never even knew I wanted it. The people who live here are so much like me and so many of them I have grown to love. I feel so connected to this beautiful place.

It hurts me personally when someone criticizes it UNFAIRLY. I don't mind the few little things that aren't great but when someone comes here and focuses on the miniscule and gets negative because THEY are negative in every way, I just want to BITE.

I wish that letter in response to the article from the Tampa paper could have stayed. There was so much in it that I believed in.
