You're right, 'anonymous'.
It takes patience beyond measure.
One of SandBox Nanny's fav sayings, given to her long ago by an unlikely sage, is: "What I hear you saying..."
She thinks that once again, she is being left by John Stroud with no other choice than to leave the PI, The City of Glenwood Springs and our local tourism marketing efforts in the hands of the 'kids'.
What she will do for Mr. Stroud, on this article, is use the tool of an unlikely sage:
"What I hear you saying, is that it is way too difficult to simply grab the statistical data that breaks down both the city sales tax numbers (and) the lodging/accommodations tax numbers; and post them up in the only daily newspaper 81601 has. Because it is way too difficult to do that, you believe it best to continue to antagonize the folks who want to get down to the facts instead of the 'gild on the lily' as they are so fond of saying."
SandBox Nanny will add that she is very pleased to see the change in reporting that Mr. Stroud has made. More and more we see just the facts and that is sincerely appreciated.
Congratulations to the City of Glenwood Springs on what looks like on the surface, a cresting over the peak.
'Kids', what can you do to help John Stroud hear you?
