I'm glad that will work out for you. As for me, I could go for a year without a vacuum cleaner and be quite happy. :D

Dear Kathe, I know you are an Islander and I am a Non Islander but maybe you should be searching under the name "Betsy Smith" and pull up Ken Bruland's and Jeff Cashman's Beacon pictures. I hope it is all right if I post this as an opinion.

Dear Kathe, You are exactly right. As a Non Islander and Outsider, I should not have the right to my opinion.

When I read these posts, my sadness turns to a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach. There are some deep seeded feelings expressed here and I don't think either side understands the other. When terms like "Islander, Non Islander, Insider, Outsider" continue to be used in referring to some...

Dear Tina, I am so sorry to read your post. I am even more saddened to hear you talk about your treatment by some people who live on Beaver Island. On the surface it seems such a nice place to visit and live but obviously there is a dark side to the island and the treatment of people who were not fo...

It is sad to know that there are sick and cruel people who have pets. A pet owner's commitment is to protect, provide and love unconditionally. If they can not commit to that, find a pet lover who will provide the safe keeping and love which is lacking in this person's care for the cat. Give me or p...

I dated a motorcycle rider for a short time, very short time, and he came to Beaver Island with me once. He told me that if all the roads were paved there would be several biker clubs that would come and enjoy the island. This might be an untapped source of tourism.

My Oops! I gave Connie the donation and wrote BIAF on it but did not tell her to be sure it was a BIAF donation box, so she dropped it off at the Welcome Center before going off on Sunday's boat. Hope you got it OK. Sorry for the mix up.

If the maps are a $1, it is the one I bought at the Beaver Island Community and Visitor Information Center when I was up there over the 4th. It is not only inexpensive but it is very well done. I am going to have Connie get some more for friends when she is there next week. Thank you for an excellen...

Dear Adam, I sent a donation to Cindy earlier this year but next week Connie will be going to Beaver Island. Where are the donation boxes located and I'll have her drop off another donation? BIAF is providing a needed and excellent service to BI for both pets and pet owners. Also, a big thanks to Dr...
