Agreed.  I haven't seen a map of where the 3K acres are though, have you?
What I mean is, is the park growing north, west, etc.

A block away?!  That's pretty sweet Muse.

I'm interested in Voelcker because I'm only a couple of miles away. I'm jealous that you'll be able to walk there with Sasha. My puppy and I will have to drive to get there. Still, it won't be too bad. Might have to check it out next weekend at the open house.

6 land plots being added on the east side and 2 land plots being added on the northeast side. Total area with the new additions is 11,000 acres.

Hey, this is good news.  Plus, it will be good for the recharge zone area of the aquifer.
