PICTURE PERFECT DAY
SUNNY AND REALLY NICE TODAY -- COMMUNITY WAS PRETTY BUSY WITH THE POOL GETTIN IT'S BIGGEST DAY SO FAR THIS SEASON--- PRACTICE FOR THE 4TH WEEKEND
--there was an accident at the game room today -- a child got it's hand caught in the ball return pocket of the pool table -- hopefully everything works out for this child--- dingman fire department responded and were working to free this child--i know that when there are kids involved just about anything can happen and usually does happen-- it is really difficult to have any environment in which something can't happen-- but hopefully the la management will look at this incident and take all appropriate steps necessary to insure that everything possible is done in the future to eliminate safety problems in the clubhouse, pool area, and other public areas that community children have assess too. This would be the process employed at any legitimate business and hopefully it will be employed here in la.

weekend review
BREAKFAST!
saturday was quite nice -- moderate tempature and sunny 4 the most part -- flea markets were held -- drove around and saw some interesting things --over on lake drive south saw some nice hand made bead braclets with some really nice bead colorations and a picture of elvis -- yes jus a picture not a real live elvis-- along villiage drive west saw a few places also -- many others were scattered around the community but i don't know all the road names-- not bad
today -- pool was open but only 1 person in at 1:30 -- a little cool so that kept everyone away
last saturday morning i stopped at the clubhouse to check out the parents day breakfast-- good crowd and the food looked awesome-- eggs, potatoes, meat and toast -- can't beat that with a stick-- nice job by the kitchen help
next week i think they're having french toast breakfast on sunday -- have to plan for that-- more people should take advantage of this service - can't beat the price and it's nice to sit with the kids and let mom have a day off ( it doesn't have to be mother's day )
activities schedules are on the la web site -- check them out

ASHES TO ASHES
LA IS LOOKING FOR WAYS TO MAKE MONEY ( CURRENTLY THEY SEEM TO THINK FINING MEMBERS FOR VIOLATIONS IS A REAL MONEY MAKER ) -- here is the solution
turn la into an eco friendly home for cremated remains of individuals who want to return to nature after they get to the end--- just think about it -- they're thousands of trees in la and any number of them would make a fine final resting place -- really even just a few hundred would do-- also they're other places to consider -- tennis court for a former tennis player -- roadways for race car enthusiasts -- pool for swimmers -- plot in front of the office for smoking office workers--- maintenance warehouse for handymen -- sewage plant for plumbers -- compactor area for sanitation workers
for several hundred dollars per guest we could bury or spread them all over the place-- it might be so popular that they could reduce the annual fee for members or even give the manager, gary stephens a much needed raise --yea really
well i hope the bod will take a careful look at this as they have already started this in monroe county and we should get in on the ground floor

I used him to have a deadbolt put on my place. He is not cheap but he was there the next mourning and did a great job
anon-- getting anyone up here in pike country is a real tough task --i also noticed the pricing was a little high but then i think everything and everyone up here is expensive -- i guess you have to realize that this really is a seasonal area and they have 9 months out of season so they have to make their money when they can-- comes with the territory
TIGER TIGER TIGER
WHAT AN AMAZING 2 DAYS OF GOLF FROM THIS GUY - YOU JUST CAN'T BEAT HIM-- PLAYOFF ROUND TOMORROW -- OH! OH! SO GOOD!
local vendor

hoa article in today's morning call
interesting article in today's morning call regarding hoa--- these issues are similar to la in that the board should make an accounting of the defaulting members and keep a public record of these for the members to review -- if defaulting accounts are too numerable that means the rest of the community is carrying the cost for these defaulting members - the goal would be to develop a method to collect defaulting dues or speed up the liens process to recover these lost dues-- of course a negotiated settlement is always more preferable than the liens process and would in most cases be the most expedient method for recovery

reply-- IMPORTANT SAFETY ADVICE
Anonymous has left a new comment on your post "FIRE & EMERGENCY INFO":
Does anyone realize that the electrical plug going onto your trailer can wear with age and start a fire, I didn't know this till it happened to someone I know, it was pretty scary and luckily it only burned the area around the plug, so it would be wise to check these connections periodically. Just passing on some good pre-maint. advice.
ANON-- thanks for your advice -- i agree because my plug at the service box loosens up and i lose my power-- i go out and push it back in hard then i reconnect--these plugs should be bayonet type plugs that have a more secure connection-- hopefully the new service will have such connections in the service box -- it will mean that people like me will have to change their plug to match the new bayonet receptacle--- these bayonet type plugs don't loosen up and therefore don't cause an interruption in power-- also loose connection plugs and receptacles can overheat and short out -- this is a potentially dangerous situation for people who are not aware of this
la instructions in regard to you checking your electrical service box plugs if you don't have power is rather surprising-- if some accident happens during one of these episodes i question if la may not share in the responsibility for the electrical failure or accident-- i think they are on thin ice with this situation

I spelled it wrong, it's Kropf and only certain models are available in full slides and their website doesn't specify which ones. The fliers were supposedly sent to all LA owners. I believe EL is in Lackawanna county and LA did contact them but decided to go with their own attorney. I think cost was a factor.
anon--- well the la attorney has been at this for several years now and she thinks dingman officials are open to the idea of 12' wides at la and maybe something will happen within the next year--- that's what the la attorney said at the open board--- sorry but several years of work and collecting fees from la should get us more than we have--- so price shouldn't be the only consideration--- competence in executing la interests is more important -- that's not happening now-- hopefully the new bod arrangement will take a look at this lawyer situation and get things moving on the 12' wide issue-- there's always hope--- chipper
