Ted,

I just wanted to drop you a line to say thanks for all your work and efforts. I use the cvilleok site all the time to keep up with school schedules and what is going on in town. You are my link to board meetings, community happenings and all things local. I know it is a lot of work, and I appreciate it.

Thank you to Thereas for the kind words. And thank you to others who have also commented recently. -- Ted
