I really don't understand this problem with folks stopping by to visit. We
did have several visitors in June but they all arrived and departed during
the day so I don't see how that could disturb anyone. I hate to say this
but I think the problem may be the golf cart. Don't get me wrong I LOVE the
golf cart but we never had any of these sorts of complaints until we started
using it. We may have restrict folks us of it. No rides down to the
bathhouse at night, etc. With the bear situation I don't think any of us
should be straying far from the campsite after dark anyway. Also, visitors
must arrive and depart during daylight hours and checkin with Driscal. I
guess we can discuss this further at Huntsville or Shelby.
