To the editor:
Last summer, people drove up Sunset Beach’s Mannon C. Gore Bridge and looked in awe at the vista—the ocean emerging in front of them, boats sailing down the Intracoastal, marsh grasses waving, shore birds—an awe-inspiring sight.
Unfortunately, before visitors reached the apex of the bridge, they had to look at trash-strewn, shoulder-height weeds, uncut grass, unused town equipment and an unkempt parking lot, certainly not an impression we want people to have of Sunset Beach.
