In 2002, events of life took me to early retirement in order to move to the Olympic Peninsula to care for my widowed mother.

In 6 short years I witnessed how fast an easy going rural part of our country can be taken over by tyrannical socialist lefties.

Jefferson County, controlled by far left liberals in Port Townsend took control of the entire county that has taken taxes to an uncomfortable point, made home ownership almost out of reach for young families, put a near halt to construction and business development and routinely limited, or denied private property rights.

Clallam County to the west is represented by socialist Trump haters and is no better off regarding a place to raise a family or enjoy a career.

The Olympic Peninsula is a beautiful place to fly over, but not so pretty if you are on the ground walking among the scowling faces.

Wow, so sad. I thought it was just Seattle.

I was born and raised in Port Angeles, then Renton, then Bremerton. My ninety year old Mom still lives there.

I left in ‘66 when I joined the USN.
