Instead of our county business coordinator and county commission spending time and money on the airport, I think we should develop a list of other specific needs for our county that need to be addressed. So here are some of my ideas (mostly retail), some of which are already in the works:
A theater in Washington
Farm & ranch supply store for the county
Cafe for Linn (reminiscent of the Bulldog Inn/Summit)
Car wash for Washington
More bed and breakfasts in the county
Quilt shop
Mexican restaurant
Something to fill Mayberry's
Mayor of Oz museum and gift shop (such a waste that this isn't happening)
And a little more complicated:
A public lake south of Highway 36 (State lake is nice, but too inconvenient)
Nine more holes for the golf course and residential development
Greenlinton with awesome pool (as described by smart-alec Brian Shaw)

You do have some good ideas here, Dan.
1.A theater in Washington-- I probably wouldnt use it, but it might provide something for our young people.
2.Farm & ranch supply store for the county--The best idea of all, This would keep a lot of money in the county. Too bad we didn't get one when the store in Clay Center closed.
3.Cafe for Linn (reminiscent of the Bulldog Inn/Summit)--No opinion here
4.Car wash for Washington--Thought there was one, when did it close?
5.More bed and breakfasts in the county--Good idea,
6.Quilt shop--Not sure how much this would do.
7.Mexican restaurant--I love mexican, but, I wonder if it could compete with Clay Center and Marysville.
8.Something to fill Mayberry's--See ideas number 2 or 7.
9.Mayor of Oz museum and gift shop (such a waste happening)
10.And a little more complicated:
A public lake south of Highway 36 (State lake is nice, but too inconvenient)--Inconvenient for who? Maybe the south half of the county?
11. Nine more holes for the golf course and residential development
Greenlinton with awesome pool (as described by smart-alec Brian Shaw)--Brian Shaw may be a "smart-alec", but, I would like to see more from him in your paper. His letters are more entertaining than most of your columnists.
