Thinking, It's not Just for School Kids Anymore

As the what to turn our open spaces into saga continues here in the eastern part of King County, it strikes me that if some folks stopped and asked how they wanted to leave this part of the world to their kids, things would be better. Especially if money could not be a consideration. The spiritual and the aesthetic would need to be considered, not just dollars and cents. A beautiful pasture or a stand of trees may be better off untouched. This is the flaw in many people's global climate change arguments. Too many the climate change celebrities talk about far away places and changes that have or could may be happen. The focus should be on your town, if your town decides to build a bunch of homes in the open spaces, so thousands more people can drive 45 miles to work, is that locally or globally prudent? If you say yes Glen Beck has a blog you you...If you say no, we need better, I am with you. But you better get you vote mailed in on time, because without your vote change cannot happen. As for our lovely valley, tonight it is a photo of a pond near the Meadowbrook Farm.
