President’s Message

I’m been pleasantly surprised at how “lovely” our Spring has been … lots of warm days resulting in the ability to plant flowers and our garden produce earlier this season because it’s been warmer!  I revel in this but am acutely aware that an early season of warmer than usual temps can bring challenges when summer arrives and we struggle to keep everything green and hopefully reduce fire danger. This, as predicted, will keep us all on our toes this year. 

I love the month of June! So many wonderful things seem to occur this month … graduations, weddings, birthdays — speaking of which President Trump will celebrate his BIG 8-0 on June 14th. This day is also Flag Day and I hope everyone will proudly display their American flag, especially in light of our upcoming 250th Birthday on July 4th. Our flag is so beautiful and it breaks my heart when I see people stomping on or burning our American flag. I know that anyone with appreciation for the sacrifices made by those who gave their lives for our country would never stoop so low as to disrespect our flag. The red, white and blue is beautiful beyond words. I’m sure most of you have seen the HUGE American flags that are flown along the I-90 freeway in Spokane Valley at Camping World and the Harley Davidson dealership. These ginormous flags put a smile on my face every time I drive east and I love seeing them unfurled and waving in our skies. In light of so many artists pulling out of the performance list for the Great American State Fair in WA DC on Wednesday, June 24th, these “highly paid and over rated artists” should be ashamed of themselves. Every opportunity they’ve had to achieve fame and fortune would not likely have happened if they didn’t live in the United States of America. This opportunity will never happen again and I hope they live to regret that decision. This event has nothing to do with politics — it’s the beginning of the biggest and best birthday party that our country has ever celebrated, regardless of party affiliation. It’s all about America! 

Campaign season has kicked off and I’m sure we’ll be immersed in efforts to support our Republican candidates from now until the primary in August and after that, to the finish line in November. We must encourage everyone we know to vote. If we all commit to that, change will happen and we can start the process of turning the ship around in WA state. We all need to be active participants in supporting our candidates to the ultimate WIN this year, and I hope that everyone will do something to help. It takes an army to fight the battle, so let’s go Ponderosa members!
