Hooterville Valley Project

Summary Uncle Joe is excited by a new capital works project for the valley, namely the damming of Bleeker Creek which will create a new lake in the area. Uncle Joe wants to exploit the benefits of the lake, such as market the hotel as the place to stay for tourists using the lake for recreational purposes, and corner the market in the provision of whatever specialized products and services for those tourists. However, Kate points out to Uncle Joe that there is one flaw in his plans: the location of the new lake does not mean that the hotel will be lake front property, but rather be under water in the middle of the lake. The railroad spur line would also be under water. When she sees how this project will devastate her and the Cannonball, she knows who is behind it: Homer Bedloe. Kate does whatever she can to stop the project, her first order of business being to collect two hundred signatures required on a restraining order petition. When it looks like Kate will just run short of the required two hundred, Floyd and Charley unwittingly look like they will get the last of the signatures required, but it is ultimately Dog who looks like he will do what is required to stop Bedloe's scheme.
