My family has been making the trip from Canada for nealy 40 years because of its people, its environment and its beauty. We were not of money, but my parents recognized the value in an annual vacation in more than monetary terms and we saved and did without so we could visit your beautiful island.<br /><br />When I first brought my young children in 2007 it was shocking to see the groynes in a place I considered one of the most beautiful on the island. They brought visions of the beach coasts in some areas of the USA; they are unnatural and unattractive. I asked my husband why anyone would spend the money they were asking to buy at St. Peter's Bay to look at those. They scared the children.<br /><br />As someone who has worked in the Environment, albeit in Canada, for over 20 years, I can not understand the CZMU's thinking on them. The ocean gives and takes. Perhaps that is a lesson we all need to learnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23416411.post-71765116286955702432010-10-01T06:21:12.524-04:002010-10-01T06:21:12.524-04:00Dr. Inniss is mad because since Yahoo!
