I need some guidance re: access to areas of Ocean Shores. I visited there
yesterday and was very concerned about access protocol.

At the cul-de-sac at Bill's Spit, there is what appears to be a vacant lot,
with a cable strung across it. While the lot is unmarked, there is a sign
on the right side that gave me pause -- it has a family name on it. I
didn't enter the area because of concern that I could cause trouble for
future birders (or end up in jail? <G>).

1. Is that a public access?

2. Can one park anywhere on the cul-de-sac (other than across driveways,
of course), or just at that cable.

3. There is another open lot with cable just short of the cul-de-sac. Is
that also public access?

4. There are numerous "openings" to the Game Range area from Marine View
Drive. How does one determine if any (or all) of those are legitimate
public access? Some of those openings have things like cable spool "picnic
tables" -- does that mean they are owned, or just well used?

5. Is the sewer district currently allowing parking inside the fence and
access to the Game Range via their land? (It's been a while, and things
sure are looking different.)

6. For humor only -- did they pave ~only~ the parts of the Damon Point
road that ~weren't~ pot-holed?

I'm hoping some of these answers will be helpful to more people than just
me -- and could avert problems with the residents.

Thanks,
