This need/opportunity is widely recognized but who has the money and site that would be OK with our communities is a problem! Suspect that only the municipalities could do it as rural areas likely to have fits, IMHO, over the mere idea. Then there…

Love this website Laurie. Loaded some blogs and photos and hope to make some Sunshine Coast friends while I can. Maybe some people I can toss back some beers down at the Lighthouse Pub next time I'm there.

Thanks Laurie... I'm just playing around with various themes to get a colour scheme that matches the store colours somewhat... thanks for giving us this opportunity to get the word out and tocommunicate with everyone on the coast and beyond. As always you're doing a such a great job... do you ever sleep?
