 I do hope that there is some sort of amicable solution to this Memorial Baptist church sell off of this historically significant property basically across the street from the Sanctuary on Second Street or the old Kumquat Mae on Barnett Shoals. The church went on Craigslist on try and harvest whatever furnishings and or fixtures that can be salvaged. The Watkinsville City Council was spurred on initially in their meeting July by cryptic hypothetical queries from Ashford Manor's David Shearon, which resulted in Shearon's appearance at the August City Council meeting to refute even the mere suggestion that his beloved Ashford Manor Bed and Breakfast would be closing. It is not. Shearon spoke at length at the amount of inquisition that he received at the August meeting.

Nobody enjoys watching a house or porch crumble to bring down
