  1. Area residents banded with preservationists and other supporters to appeal the decision of Morristown and its zoning board’s decision to redevelop the site of historic Willow Hall, for a lakefront condo development proposed by the family of president Trump’s son-in-law. Although they had to appeal to a higher court, they prevailed. This made it possible for the Passaic Rive Coalition to purchase the property for their Headquarters and move into the historic Willow Hall , former home of George Vail.
    As a result not just the historic home was preserved but Vail’s front yard abutting Speedwell Lake remained a habitat for wildlife.
    The eagle , swans , egrets and other water fowl now abide in peace in this tranquil setting, open to the public for walks and hikes, even in these troubled times.

  2. “All birds find shelter during a rain. But Eagles avoid rain by flying above the clouds. Problems are common, but attitude makes the difference!”

    Thanks for posting Kevin and Grace.
