Transferred the title today - new plates. Had dinner at the roadhouse and it was really good - Beef Burgundy over nice large noodles - perfect for this weather.
Meeting tomorrow - our County Council is getting a bit too "nanny-statist" for my liking. Because we live on the slope of an active volcano, they are trying to limit the number of people that can live, work, play up here. As if Mt. Baker is just going to suddenly pop-off and blow up.
Mt. St. Helens did that back in 1980 but the eruption was preceded by over two months of earthquakes, magma and gas venting, harmonic tremors.
The issue is not anything that we will be affected with but if I want to sell the store or the farm, the new buyer will have a lot more restrictions on what they can do so this will directly impact the property values all the while our property taxes are going up. Time to remind the council that we elected them and they are in their position to represent us. We are not their minions. Spending some time tomorrow surfing for data to back up a couple of talking points...
