WOW!!! The photo says it all. 

here's another:

Question: What is the attraction at this location? a gas station? or a restored log house?  

The answer is obvious. No one is going to stop at this location for a restored log house. Those who want to see restored log houses will visit Strasburg's historic district--which is two miles away. Anyone who thinks otherwise should have their head examined. 

Get real town council!

LONG overdue, especially considering the debacle with Cedar Springs and the impending debacle with the Holtzman property.
