Well, summer has arrived on the calendar, not quite sure when it is going to get here outside. I was trying to be a better gardener this year, but seems as if my efforts will 'bear little fruit' if the weather doesn't start to cooperate. Funny, one morning I gave up and planted some starts over the top of my seeds and both of my boys came in that day saying, "Mom, stuff is coming up in your garden!" Yes, I am such a green thumb that my plants went from not there to 6 inches high over night! I only wish!
The election has come and gone and politics has moved on to bigger and more fraudulent times. Really! I did win my election if you have not heard. I got 151 votes and my opponent 123. I consider the whole thing a success due to the fact that in our precinct two years ago the total number voting was 179! There were another 100 voters this time, thank you very much!
Things in the Twin Falls Republican Party have taken a turn for the worse, or maybe for the better. That has yet to do seen. It is possible that it was not really a 'turn' at all, just that someone got caught! Rather than provide you with the long and sordid story, just suffice it to say that there was intrigue and mis-direction and possibly some illegal activity at my first participation. NOT by me! But there is something 'afoot' and it should not be long before we will see if there is any progress made towards honest and open dealings within the committee. As things get settled, I will give more details.
I will say that the whole political process is just that, political. Who would have thought? Lots for me to learn and many miles to go before things can be turned around. It would be easy to get discouraged, but I have faith that one committee at a time we can turn our Government around and embrace the founding father's intended ideals and rule of law.
Signing off from Council Bluffs, Iowa.
