Wild Sky foe plans a flight over area


By Jerry Cornfield
Herald Columnist


Guess who's coming to Wild Sky?

It's Rep. Richard Pombo, R-Calif., the man responsible for keeping the dream of wilderness advocates cocooned in the U.S. House Resources Committee.

Thursday from a helicopter, Pombo will get his first-ever look of the 106,000-acre proposed Wild Sky Wilderness Area in eastern Snohomish County.

Next to him will be Wild Sky foes, apple grower Ed Hussman and Republican County Councilman Jeff Sax. No pro-Wild Sky passengers aboard.

Afterward, Hussman and county Republicans are throwing a barbecue in Sultan to toast Pombo's two-year stomping of Wild Sky legislation, even though an identical bill passed the Senate and the president signaled a willingness to sign it.

Pombo, a purist when it comes to the 1964 Wilderness Act, said it covers only land "untrammeled by man." There are plenty of tire tracks and footprints in Wild Sky.

Yet, wilderness backers cling to hope that the flyover means Pombo has not closed the door.

Not likely, staff members say.

Congratulations, you're the second PSAR member with a 700 and that's a fine choice of color. Mine went from the dealer to my garage, I was gonna break it in on the dirt, but, I gonna wait for the sand. I might just wait for Florence and spend from sun up to sun down the first day breaking it in [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

haha tricked ya! You guys thought it was me! How is everyone doing? I haven't been on here in a while (a long while). I'm am looking forward to Florence and the vacation that I'm gonna soak up. Sun, sand, hubby, and no kids! YEEHA

 

Yeah, I forgot about next weekend, Sunday works for me, leave early, get back early, beat the heat [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

UPDATE: Minimadman is now short one quadcycle in his collection. The Eton has been sold, the new owner is a cute little blonde![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] She wants to start riding with him! Go buddy go! I mean, now you have another mini rider to play with, errrrrrr um, now you have someone else to ride with!

 

We are camping this coming weekend at Moses. It will be Jennas first ride since her accident. Also Alida got back last night(this Morning) from her trip in La La land. So, it will be our first summer camping trip. We also wanted Jenna to ride in the sand her first time back and it will be a btter place for her to learn to clutch on the Preddy. Anyone that wants to come is welcome, but it will be hot.
