Tom and Jeff:

Great report!  It has such a refereshing tone of optimism compared to the normal doom and gloom regarding Buzzards Bay we hear repeated around town.  I am reflecting on sitting in on your listening session earlier this year, where it sounded like nothing was happening, the members were crying woe is me, and there was a sense, at least to me sitting in the audience, that no efforts could be put forth to a positive conclusion.  Your report is a reminder that big things happen in small steps, and we have to contunbually remind oursellves where we have come from to appreciate where we are.

Michelle Ford, RE/MAX Bayside, Cataumet, MA
