I Know, We Could Buy Rosario!

Perhaps someone should give John Shannon a heads-up on the Rosario Auction. I'm
sure the Council will authorize the funds for him to be in on the bidding.

After all it is in the County interest to own and operate this facility for
the common good. Perhaps it could be a future ferry landing for the other
side of Orcas.

End Of Summer

“Are you ready for school to start?”

Why do we continue, year after year, to ask that question? You know what the answer is going to be. The kids say “no,” unless they have a high level geek quotient or have been socially deprived over the summer. The Adults say “Oh yes!” --the exceptions being brutally honest teachers.

Every time I ask someone that question it is like I’ve just taken a little bit of the last days of summer away from them. So this year I vow to not ask that question. And if I am asked, I will say, “No, I’m not ready for school to start. Would you like to take my school supply shopping list and change that for me?”
