Yeah Nick, been done a little ways from me. A couple different scenarios too. One is gravel ponds that were donated to the county for a tax break. Being "waterfront", etc, they had a good tax value, so it was more profitable to donate most of it to the county. The part that was withheld from the county was probably the most easily made into a beach, but was offered to the county for a large sum of money. Well, the county wanted that part to complete their pond property, so paid very highly for it. So, the owner got money from the sale of the land, and from the tax break for donating the other. Now, in the other situation, they did as you say they'll do near you. A big gravel pond, finish graded around it when they were done mining the gravel out, and put up the property around it as lakefront lots. They started selling lots probably 25 years ago, and I'll bet they have only sold a third of them out of MAYBE 50 lots. They want stupid amounts of money for their "lakefront" lots that are in a rural area, with a very unkempt dairy farm directly to the west, and an operating pit across the road and kitty corner from their developing project. Yes, if you were to live in the development, it would probably be pretty quiet aside from all the other things going on around that would be beyond your control, and you wouldn't have to worry about any white trash neighbors with the price of their lots, but you may have to deal with people that think they're special and have money.

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
