I don't have a dog in the Wild Olympic / Working Wild Olympic scuffle. But, I do try to gather information and always enjoy a lively discussion.

I have had lengthy and appreciated conversations with both sides.

I was disappointed when the Aberdeen City Council voted to encourage stopping conversation. I was delighted when our County Commissioners voted to continue the Draft Plan conversation and to encourage Congressman Dicks to weigh-in. I thought it insightful of Commissioners Willis and Wilson to note the Draft Plan is a "work in progress" and "There is nothing real to have an opinion about."

We are always willing to beat up on our elected officials at the drop of a dime. It's important to let them know every once in a while, we agree with them.
