Precious groundwater

Three cheers and five stars for the articles on Harpswell’s issues with groundwater availability, and a special award to John Gormley for his well-researched and well-written piece.

As someone who now lives next to a soon-to-be 12-home subdivision, this is an issue that is of special concern to my wife and I. I was very happy to see this issue explained so publicly and clearly. Harpswell needs to have many more discussions about the connection between groundwater, wells and development.

In the July issue, I was pleased to read about Kathy and Sheldon Morse and their new dining venture at Henry Allen's Seafood. I have been a customer of the Morses since the summer of '00, when I stumbled into their newly opened lobster shack on Morse's Wharf at the end of Morse Shore Road.
