Day 18 - It's Friday the 13th and I'm back in Olympia ... pretty scary! Pardon the pun, but as frustrating as things are right now, humor helps keep the sanity. We've been told we're running 12 bills today, of course the Democrat Majority said the same thing on Tuesday when we only ran 3 bills. We still don't know how long we'll run today or if we'll be here this weekend, but I hope we're done early enough to get home to see our new stud colt. Belle's a new mom, with a pretty Red Dun stud colt.
Molly and I will be down in Zillah this weekend, assuming I'm home from Olympia, for Community Days. It's always fun to see all the folks Molly went to school with. I'm still trying to get all caught up around the place, but I did manage to get a trailer welded and a riser in the hay field fixed yesterday. I've still got a ways to go, but little by little I'm getting there.
We've started getting a lot of calls for calves for roping, which is great. I spoke with someone who has several of our calves for practice and he said they're running good and fast. As more people see and rope our calves, the demand should continue rise.

2011 Legislative Session
Day 94 - The Senate unveiled their proposed Operating Budget last night and it's interesting at best. In addition to even greater cuts to K-12 Education, it also relies on $350 million in what most certainly will be ruled tax increases. Reliance on these tax increases may put the entire budget process in jeopardy.
We lost the Cougar Bill to yesterday's cut-off. This is very bad news to the citizens of the 15th District, but the is one more opportunity to get the program extended and we'll be fighting to see it happen. The bill would have extended the pilot program another 5 years and continue to allow counties to opt into the program. Keep in mind that last summer there were three different cougars reported in the Zillah area.
We're going to be running the Concurrence/Dispute Calendar for the next couple of days. The Concurrence/Dispute Calendar are the bills which passed the House, but were amended in the Senate and is the House's opportunity to concur or dispute the amendment. The Ways and Means Committee will be meeting the next three afternoons on bill which are necessarily to implement the budget. We'll also be on the Floor Saturday and Sunday this weekend. Thankfully there are only 11 more days in the Regular Session, but a Special Session may be looming on horizon.
