It is a shame when we start to designate specific areas to be superior to others. This can and does start to produce cliques which destroys the true friendliness and hospitable nature of the original concept of this great community. |
OH my GOODNESS. What have I done!!! I haven't read this thread for awhile. I by no means think the south is superior at all to the north. We played golf today way northwest and were saying how very beautiful the area is. People are so proud of the homes and take such good care of them and the plants and trees are mature and beautiful in the sections that have been here for more the seven or eight or ten or 12 or 20 years, in fact the older the prettier the plantings are. No one would be able to tell new from old here very easily if they drove around.
I did not mean one side was superior to the other at all. I like MORE deed restrictions and some people like less but no area is better than any other. If I made people think that I will never be able to apologize enough. I know we don't vote on anything south of 466 and that is just fine with me. I like the way things are run.
Now I will have to go back and reread this thread and see what damage I have done. Me and my big mouth.
I am so sorry for this.
