Open graph tag doesn't appear to be working.  When adding the url to a FaceBook post the og image is not appearing.  Any help is appreciated.  Thanks!

That URL throws errors in Facebook's Debugger:

Inferred Property:The 'og:url' property should be explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags.
Inferred Property:The 'og:title' property should be explicitly provided, even if a value can be inferred from other tags.
Small og:image:All the images referenced by og:image should be at least 200px in both dimensions, with 1500x1500 preferred.  (Maximum image size is 5MB.) Please check all the images with tag og:image in the given url and ensure that it meets the recommended specification.
og:image should be larger:Provided og:image is not big enough.  Please use an image that's at least 200x200 and preferably 1500x1500.  (Maximum image size is 5MB.)  Image 'http://www.crowsnestnewport.com/images/home-images/cn-trinity-in-bloom.jpg' will be used instead.

Here is the link to the debugger: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug

Everything works fine for me when I share http://www.crowsnestnewport.com/ on Facebook.  The problem is if you make a mistake with the Open Graph markup and share a URL with broken og markup, Facebook will save it.  Just run the URL through the Facebook Debugger which will refresh the cached open graph data for that URL.  Lynda and I must have both refreshed the cache by using your URL in the Facebook Debugger at https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug

Maybe you also made the image bigger or something too since I used the debugger but the photo that comes up: http://www.crowsnestnewport.com/images/home-images/cn-logo-facebook.png is nice and big.

The Debugger is saying for you to include the "og:title", "og:description" and "og:url" meta tags too-- they are deriving that data from other places on your page but they are saying to include all those tags too and you'll be all set.
