June is almost in our rear view. Hate to see summer go so fast. We are finally getting some warm weather in the Pacific Northwest. I love it here as it is so green and fresh but we could sure use more sunshine. Although they say we are in a drought I don't see it, but that is what they say. I honestly believe that the Pacific Northwest will someday be the food basket for the United States. The lower western states are getting low on water and burning up and I don't see any change in the future for them. The climate is changing! Some people don't see it, but it is happening. If they continue to pave over the Pacific Northwest with cement, houses and apartments there won't be enough farmland to grow food. I hate to see the cities expand out into farmland. I have been fighting that since the early 1990's. A developer purchased a 550 acre cattle ranch/farm that is to the west and north of our road. He wanted to put in 2200 houses and apartments and golf course. We fought it and fought it. My husband and I started a group that ended up with over 600 members and stopped it in its tracks. After a two year fight. I didn't know anything about growth management when we started fighting it but learned a lot very quickly. I can remember talking to a person on the phone and was overwhelmed. That developer gave up, but he sold it to another developer from Japan. So we fought them for a couple years. We finally gave in on the golf course, which I hated to do. The developer told us the golf course would be a Scottish golf course and they wouldn't be using water to keep it green! Well, I learned that developers don't tell the truth since the golf course is very green and they do water, a lot! That is one reason I do not like golf. Personally I think it is a big waste of farm land. They keep bringing up developing the rest of it and we continue to fight it. I know they are working on an update on our County Comprehensive Plan this year so am sure we will have to start getting involved again. The lasat wekWow....I got off on a tangent there....

I hope you all got to see your Father's this year. All of our kids showed up for the day. We sat in the shop with all the doors open because it was cooler in there. Had our favorite food nachos! And strawberry shortcake. Our daughter makes fantastic nachos and loves to cook so she fed us! Our son and daughter in law brought homemade shortcake and fresh county strawberries...so we all ate too much but it was great.

And after the year we had in 2019 I feel so grateful that my husband is here so we could celebrate Fathers Day. We are still working on managing his heart. I have gone back to good old home cooking with no salt and his blood pressure is doing so well. He had a heart monitor on for 2 weeks last month and we go this week to find out what the results were on that and what we can do to keep it going! But he is doing so well for 85. Works harder most days than most men do. I do insist during this warm weather he works a little less, but he got 2 car repair calls already today. He was supposed to give up mechanic work but so many people just don't have the $$ for the expensive car repair shops. Plus a lot of them don't trust them. They seem to always tell you you need more repair work than you actually do. Or at least can get along without. But they trust my husband.

I am still working on updates and making new themes. I have so many made and so many on line I doubt if I ever finish. Especially if Mozilla keeps updating Firefox. A lot of people are unhappy with the way themes look now. They don't like the clean looking tabs. Personally I kind of like it but I feel bad for the users that don't. They seem to think theme designers can fix it, but we can't. We don't have that much control! But we try.

Have a super July and I will be back! Hopefully! Love to all!
