“I wanted to take a moment to thank each of you for the wonderful journalistic abilities you both pour into the monthly edition of the Shorelines.  The way you’re able to put into ‘professional words’ results of your investigative and informative articles has always amazed me as my level of the same would be recognized as ‘see Jane run.’ :).
It always surprises me that in such a small community there is so much going on with people and events that no one would know about without your input in the Shorelines as well as the business information in the Bylines. Just know you’re both appreciated!”(Cindy Gardner).

“Living in a rural area, often we aren’t aware of services and businesses offered by people just a few miles away. After being featured in the Shore Lines, I had several people contact me asking about local honey. Then over the summer I had more people stop by my booth at the Kootenai County Farmers Market to introduce themselves, saying they had read the article. What a great way to connect with neighbors we haven’t met; I am very grateful for being included in the Bayview Shorelines.” (Tracy O’Brien -Willow Wood Honey Farm)

As the new owner it was important for the good folks in Bayview to see we were up and running and I’m sure the article helped remind Bayview residents of our existence. After the article I’ve had many drive bys and stop-ins to meet us and tour the Lodge. Thanks again for the support. It was timely, well written and a blessing.”  (Julia Hardcastle – Log Spirit Bed and Breakfast)
