Okay, I think we need to get a discussion going about the impact of the results of WW (and the election of Norman La Force to the EB Parks) on the the Bulb and its future (offleash) use (or lack thereof) for dogs and their owners. Perhaps a new Blogroll category and maybe even a list serv if we want to mount a campaign to preserve offleash dog rights at the beach/bulb.
I’m not sure I have the time to spearhead such an effort (if it’s even possible), but I’d love to see feedback on people who’d join such an effort.
