County officials are drafting letters asking to save the park, along with Bulow Plantation.

4. So do I, Dr. and you're right. He's going to be some trouble.

I think many of his ideas will be shot down when the voting happens though.

Washington Oaks is wonderful place though and I hope they save it from the cuts.

5. I know - sure hope so also - I love going for bike ride up there - and stopping off

at the parks to rest and relax a bit.

Seems as though we continue to struggle to keep that area pristine and out of the hands of the developers.
