Fulltimer - What I was agreeing with, with jawjagal was "I despise Destin in the summer. I only want to go in the Fall and Spring now"

My point Fulltimer is the lake's current growth is basically controlled, in that, the vast majority of the lakefront property is owned by Russell and APC.

Destin is no longer the great place it once was (still has beautiful beaches and is geat in the Fall), as the growth went out of control about 15 or so years ago with condos going up everywhere. And I agree the property values have skyrocket based on its popularity. But who wants to go fit the traffic and congestion during your vacation, as that is no fun, as you are there to relax -- rather than fit the traffic.

As long as the growth on the lake remains controlled property values should continue to increase and the lake traffic/congestion under control. -- Keeping Lake Martin a very popular both place to live and visit.

Nothing in my previous post has to do with Atlanta, as I actually work in Altanta. I am open to anyone at Lake Martin as long as they continue to show the same GREAT respect towards the lake as its current residents and vacationers.

We are all fortunate here as we have a treasure, and yes treasures are not for an eternity. However, if we all continue to suport the Lake as has been the case in the past, hopefully our children, grandchildren and their children can continue to enjoy this piece of paradise for years to come.

Basically my point is we currently have a treasure with controlled growth. What happens to the treasure is the growth goes uncontrolled.
