I accidentally sent this only to Bill Heck instead of the whole list.  I guess
my coffee hadn't kicked in yet!


Dear Fellow Birders,

        I think almost all of are willing to take a shuttle bus and walk some,
but I sure hope they keep a lot of bathrooms down near the boardwalk entrances!
It could be a LONG wait for the shuttle bus under certain circumstances!  I
also think it will be critical to keep some parking for the "off season", when
running a shuttle would be cost prohibitive, but when some of us will still be
interested in enjoying Crane Creek.

        Just out of curiosity, where would they put the new parking lot the bus
would run from?  The parking lot at the bird center is full during peak times.
There would have to be one as large as the current parking lot, basically a
brand new lot, to handle the big events, unless we want to turn a lot of people
away. Where would it be put and how would it be paid for?

Best wishes,

Steve Edinger
