Jim;
I know right where you are talking about. Today when you drive east on Washington, across Freer Rd, there is a dirt rd that leads into a what I will call a subdivision. The homes have very large lots....maybe 5 acres each. Just to the south is the "New High School" which was built in about 1998.
I don't know Jim Linder. In fact, I don't feel like I am well connected with any aviation community in Chelsea. But I have lived here for 23 years. I fly for FedEx, and am gone quite a bit, so when I am home, I always focused on the kids and the family. Now the youngest is in college. So, my wife is better connected with the community than I am.
I live 6 miles Northwest of town. Just off Waterloo Rd, near Bush Rd., just east of Sugerloaf Lake.
