They could have done so much. They had so many resources at their disposal and the governor's backing -- the current one, not Dixy.<br /><br />If he's smart, Gerry O'Keefe will update his resume and bail out before the fecal hits the fan in the Samish Watershed come spring. I understand Jay Manning (although a much smarter guy) got a lucrative job in some Seattle firm.<br /><br />But then our State EPA folks got $50 Million from the Feds which they've essentially squandered on meaningless projects just to be able to say "See, we spent it all; send us more!"<br /><br />We at Skagit Leeks have a couple of ideas that we're going to present early in the Year of the Dragon, with the hope of encouraging residents to turn off Fox News and take the time to figure out how they can make a difference.<br /><br />It just feels good down here to know that there are folks like you, Mike, and Fearless Lee First, who care and write and do -- all the while making an amazing difference.<br /><br />We're going to have fresh Dungeness Crab for Christmas, but no shellfish for us this year.LOShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02869944525981586801noreply@blogger.com
