Reverse Racism

Well, it looks like the downtrodden has been elevated to superior.


When is the last time you saw a commercial that didn't include a black person? Usually a male paired with a blonde Caucasian woman. 


This in your face attempt is designed to raise black people to that above everyone else and to promote mixed relationships. This campaign is way over the top. Equality, yes, but brain washing a resounding NO!

fire Close To Home

After seeing multiple fire fighter flights dipping in Lake Pend Oreille, I called Timberlake. They informed me of a new fire at approximately Hwy 95 and  Trails End. This would explain the heavy response for a heavily populated area near by.

Stand by.

American Flag Protocol

Flag protocol specifically prohibits the wearing of the American Flag as apparel. Over Bayview Daze, there were hundreds flaunting that rule.

All of use veterans know better, but apparently it is not taught elsewhere. These actions do not reflect patriotism, but ignorance. Please stop disrespecting our flag.[

Bayview Daze Thoughts

I carried several thoughts from Bayview Daze, The first was I don't think I've ever seen so many grossly fat peple in one place at the same time.

But what was facinating, was the peaceful day. With the exception of one young man lighting two firecrackers, who stopped when I yelled at him, not one boom was heard all day. Both residents and tourists behaved well during this hot dangerous weather. They are to be congratuated.

One thing happened for the first time in my 26 years living here though. I drove to church, then when I returned a woman had stolen my parking place while I was gone. She moved her car, but what nerve.

We were very lucky that the thunder storms stayed south of Bayview. No Fires, either man caused or not happened on our turf.

Have a great and safe rest of Summer.

Bayview Bible Church

 I recently became a member of the Bayview Bible Church. The congregation currently meets in the Community Center. There is an ongoing drive to produce a free standing church building on the church property across the street.

Bayview needs a church. You folks may belong to another church or are unchurched. Whether one or the other, I urge you to donate to the building fund.  Small donations from a large group of people will put us over the top.

Individuals, businesses and even those outside Bayview. Athol and Careywood are urged to help out.


Send these donations to: Bayview Bible Church, Building fund.

Remembering Rush

 Many years ago while living in Federal Way, Washington I did a talk show gig at Tacoma's KLAY. Although my show was live, most of the programing was syndicated. I would sit at a desk with at least two newspapers.

A hot topic at the time was the tanker disaster in Alaska. Preceeding my time slot was the Rush Limbaugh show. His sense of humor and bombastice delivery got me pumped up for my show.

There has never been anyone like him and most probably will never again see or hear the likes of him.

R.I.P. big guy.

Home Care vs Assisted Living

 Today's CDA Press has a story from the Catholic church. In it they cite the many nursing home deaths as murder. I agree.

Fortunately, I have home care givers paid for by the Veterans Administration. Too bad for those not in service. 

I am 83 years old or will be in March. I believe I wouldn't still be kicking without the VA medical and home care. Speaking of which I need a house keeper for the first two weeks in March since my regular is taking those weeks off to care for her husband after surgery.

Impeachment?

 It apparently hasn't occured to Congress that you cannot impeach a private citizen. Trump is a private citizen. 

It is past time for the House either kicks Pelosi out or starts to legislate serious laws thast are balanced. If the Democrats continue on the radical lines that have been drawn, the Supreme Court will get busy undoing crap that has seen as unconstitutional.

If anyone needs impeaching it would be Pelosi and Shuman.

Pineapple Express

The weather radar shows a storm starting near Hawaii and streching to hear. This will last for several days, so don't plan on having any picnics.

The only good thing about all this rain is it adds to the mountain snow pack which will be needed next Summer. 

This may however, keep people from gathering during this pandemic. Bayview is so quiet you woud think everyone has abandoned the town.

Revolt

 For the last four years we have experienced havoc caused by Democrats in denial. Now it's the Trump Republicans in denial.

Right now demonstrators (If you want to call them that) are rioting at and even in that capitol building. Both parties are guilty of extreme behavior. If our Republic is to survive, these people must go home. 

Our survival politically is at risk. I oppose this horible behavior. Everyone needs to shut up, stop playing power games and allow our government the opportunity to govern. It is what it is, folks.

I learned yesterday that President Trump sent the demonstratpors to the capital. Is it possible that after Biden is inaugurated, Trump could be indited for inciting to riot? I hope not. That would cause open warfaare between the Biden administration and the militant Trump supporters.

Let's hope that the retoric dies down and people goes back to their regular life. Fer Christ sake we need to somehow mute Pelosi and Shuman.

More unconstitutional activity by Washington Gov

 Today, Washington Governor Inslee issued some unilateral rulings regarding gatherings, including relatives from out of state gathering with friends and relatives from out of state, requiring as I understand it, a two week quarantine before being allowed.

Here is a part of the US constution regarding interstate commerce:

Commerce clause, provision of the U.S. Constitution (Article I, Section 8) that authorizes Congress “to regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with Indian Tribes.” The commerce clause has traditionally been interpreted both as a grant of positive authority to Congress and as an .unique power to regulate travel between states.
..
"This spike puts us in a more dangerous a position as we were in March,” Inslee said during a press conference Sunday. “And it means, unfortunately, the time has come to reinstate restrictions on activities statewide to preserve the public’s well-being, and to save lives. These were very difficult decisions that have very real consequences to people’s livelihoods. I recognize that and don’t take those impacts lightly, but we must act now and act quickly to slow the spread of this disease.”

This act by a dictitorial governor is unconstutional. Look for federal lawsuits to be filed immediately.

Racial Prejudice

 It seems to me that prejudice was quite tame until the Obama era, and possibly stoked by Obama himself.

Let's look at today. You cannot watch television comercials without noticing that every one of them has peple of color in them. Print ads same same, There are more opportunities today for Black people that ever before.

Meanwhile, "Black Lives Matters" and other radical groups are rioting, burning and destroying busnesses because a cop in the mid-west killed a black person. So why are people rioting in Oregon and Seattle when the disaster happened in an upper midwest state. This has to be prejudice in reverse and appears to have the purpose of destroying our governmental structure.

Tree Huggers Loose

Through out the fiercely burning fire on Bernard Peak, though just across the narrow Idlewild Bay lies Farragut State Park. Due to judicious thinning and prescribed fires along the shoreline, not one fire was able to torch our park.

There is a lesson to be learned here.  These preventive measures do work. Another measure can be seen along Highway 54. Thinning under the fire safe program has prevented any fires to take hold. So if you are one of the tree hugging extremists, pay attention to what really works. Crowded forests such as in California become uncontrollable.

Supreme Court

 For those on the left, it is important to remember the president's term is for four years, not three and one half. Trump has every right to nominate a replacement Justus before the November election.

 November election

Normally I vote straight ticket GOP unless the GOP candidate is a whacko. But this year we have a recent move-in from California whose ads are composed of slamming his opponents. He is supported by the largely whacko central committee and the deputies. First, the new sheriff is supposed to supervise the troops, not have them as drinking buddies. 


Secondly, this new comer flat bought the republican nomination. I will vote for the independent for sheriff, which shouldn't be political and I definitely don't want a sheriff that lies and  throws mud at his adversaries.


On another subject, I have determined that the U.S Forest Service is fighting the Bernard Peak fire with a prayer for more rain. In the week that could have ended the fire after Saturdays rain one helicopter with a dipping bucket could have put the fire out by hitting any remaining hot spots . Praying for rain has cost us a ton of trees.

Shop Local

What with the new Crossroads Shopping Center, we have some choices. 

 But are they good ones?  On the one hand, the new Super One saves us the onerous trip to Hayden when shopping. BUT The soon to be opening convenience store and Auto Zone parts store are not needed. We have Victory Auto Parts and Little Town Market, plus the Bayview Mercantile, all locally owned and operated.

I urge all of you to shop with our local businesses and freeze out the national chains. As far as the car wash is concerned, well... I live on an unimproved dirt road. Think support for your friends and neighbors please.

When Givers Rule

I was feeling sorry for myself earlier, then I stopped in at the Bayview Mercantile. The cashier slipped two boxes of facial tissues into my bag. When I got home I noticed my name had been added to each box. I subsequently learned that an unknown person bought them and asked that they be delivered to me.

Later, I notice a woman getting out of her car in front of my place. She stepped up on my deck and handed me a bag. It was a care package from the Bayview Christian Church.

Such neighbors we have. I am now stocked up with tissues of both kind and plenty of food. But other seniors are probably in need, which probably will mean a lady from the church will be visiting soon.

To make sure connections are made, please leave a post stating your age and/or infirmity long with a phone number which I will pass on to church members. God bless you all.

Business Closures

Of Bayview businesses closed hopefully temporarily, are the Captain's Wheel Restaurant, and Ralph's. These are prohibiting inside seating. Ralph's is currenly serving takeout which can be eaten in the various outside areas. Also takeout is still aailable.

As soon as the situation at the Wheel is clarified, I will report it. Right now, Kevin and Daveana are ready to serve you.  The Merc is open with required hand sanitizers provided.

The key to our survival is do not hoard. What you take that you don't need is taking it away from those that do, some desperately.
