Bay Views: Summer up in smoke
It is becoming difficult to remember when we had clear blue skies. That is turning into a ruined last month of Summer. It isn't just about weather, it is all about tourism. The restaurants and stores along with marinas are suffering a dearth of people.
First, we had the Cape Horn Fire, which through thoughtless publications from the Spokane TV Stations, kept on hammering on smoke, fire and the proximity of these fires, gave the impression that Bayview was out of bounds due to near by fires. I put that (fire) out by seducing TV crew into actually learning the facts, rather than just using press releases about percentages of containment rather than on scene reporting. More here.
