Weekend update

Just a few updates on the weekend. There was a lot going on and I wish I had had the time to post this Friday so you could all be able to take advantage of the events.

Last night we went to the Lions Club Veterans dinner at the Scout House. The Lions served up a great prime rib dinner. The Susie and Rick Show provided entertainment. We were honored by the presence of several veterans, many in full uniform.

The Gathering Grounds also hosted a music and art festival. We missed getting to attend but when we drove by on our way to the scout house we could hear the music. I hope it was successful.

I'm reading up on the agenda for the APCD board meeting. This Tuesday will be my first meeting as an advisory board participant and I am looking forward to attending.

In the meantime, here is something to think about...and this is one of the reasons that I have been fighting so hard to reduce truck traffic and other development that creates additional air pollution. Diesel emissions in Ventura County are the highest contributors of added cancer risks due to air pollutants. Here are the rankings for Ventura County.
