I was up at Gunstock all last week, heading there one morning on rt 11 there's a ton of trees cut down on the right on a hill over looking the lake. Does anyone have any idea whats going there?

I've read recently that, after a recommendation from the American Dental Association, beavers have adopted more modern methods of felling trees and can be quite efficient at it...

Also, they do not build condo's - they build lodges...

Don't give them any ideas. Look what happened to most of the marinas in the eighties...condos. Anyway, back to the question, I personally do not know what is going on in that particular spot. Stop by and ask, look like you might be interested in buying and they may give you the scoop. Then ket us know.

I was told that those dam snowmobilers were knocking them down.

I have a friend on the ski patrol there. He was told it was being cleared for agricultural use and would be blueberry fields.

I don't know if I want to live in a complex called Blueberry Fields.

Better than living in a "complex" called Strawberry Fields !

Just a bit of Beatle trivia that someone once mentioned to me. Frankly I never understood the song but then I never did LSD either. Nothing to get hung about I guess.
