Dear friends of Bynum Front Porch,

Saturday, November 19, 9am to 12noon is our next workday at the Bynum General Store.  Our goals are to paint the walls that enclose the heater closet (everyone is tired of looking at that un-finished pressboard), install a real hinged cover for the ceiling exhaust fan opening, paint the window frame around the AC unit, paint the walls around the bathroom entrance, install new siding under the bathroom window, trim trees in the parking area, and of course general cleaning and trash pick-up.

This Chatlist is so cluttered that I find it extremely laborious to sift through. I contacted your web designer and told them the same thing.

I would suggest organizing it according to area and/or topic like the newspaper want ads. Unfortunately, with this web page, you have to scroll through everything to get where you might like to read unless it could be set up with links to topics that you could click on and then be taken to that spot. Even online grocery store ads do that.
