Our View: Yes, get rid of 2050

It appears none of the five county commissioners has the moral conviction and courage to declare the county's 2050 plan - the county laws governing development - an abject economic failure, destructive to the economic welfare of the county's citizens and that it should be rescinded and burned at the stake.

PHOTO GALLERY: Wine Tasting

The cold and rainy day knocked over the live entertainment Howie Banfield's tent and forced the crowd under two tents. But, attendees were in good spirits. Five dollars of every attendee's entrance fee profited the Longboat Key Historical Society. And since they had no place to go, let it rain, let it rain, let it rain.
