Sylvia Hammond's positions better suited to Seattle

I read the April 5 letter to the editor about Ms. Hammond who is running against Rep. Matt Manweller for state legislator. The writer offers some easy platitudes about being candid and forthright. Those types of broad and vague statements are fine, but eventually she will have to be “candid and forthright” with the voters. Here is what was posted on her Facebook page. She wants to ban guns and advocates for strong gun control measures. She supports Colin Kaepernick and all the other athletes who are taking a knee during the national anthem. This is an insult to all our veterans and she wants to appeal the federal tax cuts and impeach the president. She supports allowing men into women’s bathrooms or worse, men into girl’s bathrooms. She praises socialism. Someone needs to tell Ms. Hammond that this is Grant County and not Seattle.

The Fishin' Magician: Summer Chinook

Summer run Chinook fishing is still going strong in Central Washington. Most anglers' efforts are concentrated below Wells Dam, above the dam and off the mouth of the Okanogan River in the Brewster Pool. I fished the Pool recently and had a very slow day. I missed one fish on a herring rig and only landed one small fish later in the day. I left the water with my tail between my legs.

It has been and continues to be a great hunting year for Rudy Lopez of Spokane Valley. He has notched his first elk tag, a deer tag, he shot his first pheasant recently and has bagged several quail. On Dec. 14 he tagged his first Washington turkey during a turkey hunt in the Davenport area. The season limit was one turk of either sex. This hen was taken from a flock of around 150. Lopez is the retired Command Chief of Fairchild Air Force Base. He is now the director of the Veterans’ Cemetery at Medical Lake. Dennis L. Clay photo
