Huckleberries Online

Peanut Gallery (Why Duane pulled gardens)

An Ingram trueism: People generally tell you what they want you to know. Mr. Hagadone withdrew the garden proposal because a popular advisory vote would be too contentious; it would endanger the two bond elections by having too many nay-sayers at the polls; it was no longer any fun.

The last one I'll bet was the deal braker. I felt this at both the workshop hearing and the resort presentation a few days later and was thinking, he is not injoying this at all. Now we know why he is successful. He makes good decisions eventually!
