It would be good to have them all in one central place with grass and trees rather than in a dusty parking lot. And it would separate the family activities from the concerts and alcohol sales.

It's one thing to lose the year's crop. It's another to lose the trees, which can have an impact of many years.

It was a terrible year. We lost money.

We've decided to put Sunday night back, without alcohol, and make it a family, family, family evening.

They came by and red marked about 18 of my pine trees (for removal), and only one of them I can see is the least bit dangerous, and over half are not even in the right of way. But boy, they just want to take everything. I'm not very happy about that. I told them so when they called to get my permission. They put me down as refusing. I don't know what happens from there.

There's nothing better than hugging trees and rolling over the grass.
