I see a lot of people parking there. I believe there is room for 3 or 4 cars.”

2. Wind Chimes on the Lake – A neighbor requests that people with wind chimes would give some consideration to others.  Noise pollution can certainly spoil the quiet serenity of the lake.  Wind chimes, unlike other forms of noise, are constant.  One gives thanks to no wind.  Submitted by  Kirby, Adraw@aol.com
