DJ and Catherine...thank you both for your replies. DJ, I most certainly am not "your boy" and I am certain you would not address me that way in person. The rest of your post is not worth a response since only a fool would think the economics of Lakefront Property would allow what you fear regarding the recreational areas...whatever...no need to argue...it won't happen.

As for Catherine, the problem with Lake Lanier is its proximity to a city of 6 million people and the fact that it serves as a water source and recreational playground for the ATL. Not an issue for LM. We have almost no retail development at the Lake and that is simply because of supply and demand...nothing more...nothing less. If Russell wants to try and be a pioneer here and bring in more development, I applaud them and most of the Lake Crowds would agree.

It choose not llive my life being paranoid of progress. I realize we all define "progress" differently but to worry about Russell tearing down old homes to build multi million dollars homes, attracting people that can afford them, and building the amenities that they want is hardly anything to be worried about...
