Danger Is Pent Up Behind Aging Dams - NYTimes.com

We've got a couple "upstream" from Southern Village and it has never been clear to me if anyone ever examines them.

Pond-view benches

Wouldn't it be nice to have some benches overlooking our two ponds in Southern Village? I wonder why that has not been done. I, for one, am happy to contribute both "working" time on the project and a few dollars.

Trash along 15-501

Wow, when I walked along the trail near 15-501 and Culbreth Road, there sure is a lot of trash that must fly over the guard rail and down the bank, or at least the top of it. It is a good reminder of how much stuff gets tossed out of vehicle windows and blows out of trucks and other vehicles as they drive along that road. If people were more careful, there should be next to none of it.

And we should organize a clean up project to attack that. Consider me a volunteer.
