Potluck on Labor Day Nice turnout for the potluck When I got home after being gone 2 months, I was curious as to what some interesting things may have gone on in the park. One thing is just before I left the pool was drained and it appeared they were sanding the pool and thats all I saw, so when I got home, went to the office to maybe ask what had gone on while I was gone, was just told go look at the pool, take pictures if you want for your blog, well, so I went to the pool, looks just like it always looked so no info about what was done or a dang thing. Some other people said they finally got the message that the pool and steps were slick and decided they needed to repaint and texture the bottom and steps. No other improvements were told to me. I do know every time they hire the palm cutters, they only remove a few frawns and in know time the palms are all shaggy and earlier when they were trimmed, since they only trimmed a few, seed pods were coming out and spewing seeds all over. I just came from a park I go to a lot and they only keep about 4 to 5 frawns and cut all the rest, I asked one time why they didnt cut off more and was told the Mgr said he wanted them cut like at 3 o"clock. Meaning very few got cut, just the lower ones this was several years ago so dont know what mgr they were talking about.
