Poll Questions

Ladies & Gentlemen,

There have been comments made about polls on this Blog Site that have encouraged us to change things for the better. I encourage any one of you to attempt to vote for a second time on our poll and see what happens. You cannot vote twice on our polls unless you have a separate IP Address. Now, if you're that bored and you actually have access to an additional address, go for it.

There is a difference between "free" poll systems and ones that you pay for. The one that you pay for allows you to determine how often someone can vote throughout the year on any given poll. In our case we have set it up to only allow you to be able to respond once a year.

In the past we have had a couple of poll questions we forgot to set the meter on but we're getting the hang of things and our intentions are to have it set for once a year. I hope this allows everyone to understand that the results will be legitimate and accurate.

There's A Very Good Reason This Rope Is Blocking Off This Blacktop!


There's a retaining wall this parking lot sits up against that butts right up to a stream. Obviously the engineering of this parking lot was NOT approved by the City and there are a few sink holes already that could cause some pretty serious harm/damage if someone were to simply break the string holding up the flags attached.

It must be yet another FOB that can get away with no permits and or inspections and in the end this is what you get. Call me if you'd like to know where this parking lot is Barrie. Till then, I'll just watch it and see how long it takes to get even worse.

All Washed Up


I'm certain Mr. Alessi isn't aware of this campaign sign floating in the river. However, who's responsibility is it to clean it up?

Station 7 In Pittsville Officially Opens Monday!








During a "dry run" last night, Jennifer and I enjoyed some of the finest food we have ever eaten in our entire lifetime.

They came around with a bowl and you randomly chose what your appetizer was going to be, then your entree and then your desert. We had a rack of ribs and calamari for our appetizers, OMG! The ribs were the best ribs I had ever eaten!

Then came the entree. I had a 16 oz. ribeye. Folks, I have never had the pleasure of eating a finer piece of meat in my life! It was cooked to perfection, (IMO). Jennifer had a stuffed chicken breast that was out of this world! Gavin had a hot dog from the children's menu and it was HUGE! It also taste fantastic. Then came desert. We were already stuffed when this huge brownie was delivered with two scoops of ice cream on it. UNBELIEVABLE!

Once things started clearing out I was asked to stick around by Todd's mother and offer a toast upstairs in the bar area. I expressed just how proud I am of Todd & Carroll, That's Carroll with two (R's) and two (L's), an inside joke. Their vision was one thing but to achieve it the way they have done so, who couldn't and wouldn't be as proud of them as I am?

Folks, this is a place you'll visit and return time and time again. Trust me, "They'll make your drive to Pittsville well worth the trip." I see Station 7 as the next Old Mill of the Eastern Shore. The prices are LOWER than the chain restaurants but they have a personal touch. You have a Professional Chef cooking your food and there wasn't a single complaint.

I wish Carroll & Todd the very best of success. Without "ALL" of you however, they cannot survive. Please visit them and let them show you how a dining experience should be. Remember, they're ironing out the kinks as they get started.
