I always see people fishing these two ponds. Anyone have any idea what they are fishing for? It’s near my house and I’ve always thought about walking over and throwing my line in but I don’t know what’s in there.

I figured it was something like that. Now when I have visitors from out of town and I’m showing them around my lovely neighborhood, and they ask about the pond, I will have an answer. Thanks again! :)

Instead of all this water going directly back to the river or the deep water channel, water can slowly infiltrate downward and possibly recharge the ground water supply. I suspect the high voltage signs and concrete building refer to pumps which force the water outward when the pond level gets too high. I think these detention ponds are now commonly required of developers.

If you want a burger in a restaurant, then I would have to say its very close race between The Eatery, Vince’s and Club Pheasant. I’d probably go with The Eatery mostly because I they have the best fries of the 3.

The Burger from The Eatery

Who makes the best hamburger in town? Is it that “skirt” burger at Squeeze Inn? Whitey’s? The “Original Six Dollar Burger” from Carl’s Jr.? Or someplace I haven’t thought of?

Just don’t say McDonalds!

I don’t think the build those anymore, but maybe they should. it would be relatively inexpensive to build, Screen, parking lot and a small radio transmitter. Maybe an enterprising farmer could set aside some land for this?

just a thought
