WET DAY--As this calendar week began, it was a pretty doggone wet Sunday. I noticed that while it was certainly raining on Puget Island and Cathlamet, it was absolutely dumping here in West Valley, so while we may not be far apart, miles-wise, we are definitely far apart in rainfall amounts.Sadly, we win in that category by a long shot! While I wasn't overly pleased with all the rain, my cousin in California was quite happy, as it has been dry and hot there for ages. Needless to say, I told her...
To The Eagle: The Lions Club is helping the Wahkiakum Food Bank again as it has for years, and the food bank and the people that receive the food surely are thankful and appreciate the food. They will start picking up the food at 9 a.m. on November 8 at your doorstep, so please, have the food ready. If perhaps you do not have it ready, or you forgot, they will wait a short time. You can also bring it later at the food bank, 42 Elochoman Valley Road, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on that day. If you would like to give a turkey (please) we would appreciate...
To The Eagle: I enjoyed the beautiful photos by Poul Toftemark of about 50 elk around Seal River. I look forward to the time when healthy elk will again roam our fair state from west to east and north to south, and this is quite possible to achieve, but we believe that will not happen with the present “team” of Drs. Mansfield, Jonker, Besser, Pamplin, and their technical advisory group. First of all, among the 50 or so elk in the photo, it would be difficult to spot an elk with hoof rot because they move less than healthy elk and might not be...
ToThe Eagle: A bit of this week's political activity is devoted to trying to get the area's escalating utility rates under control. Here in Cathlamet, a town hall meeting is scheduled to try to sort out sewer fees, and next door in Longview a couple of nice folks are on the ballot for PUD Commissioner to try to end bickering and gridlock in that organization. That town's water supply, administered by the city council, is also out of control both financially and chemically, but no one figured out a way to get it on the ballot. Just as well,...
