Bonding from tragedy
Hello. Faith is what builds relationships. Relationship with Jesus in
time of need is stronger than ever and the bond of the families that
have come together on the mountain.
I thank you for your inspiration and all that you have built in the
last couple of weeks with all the families there.
Thank you.

Of 35 and 37
Reading the Hood River News’ Dec. 9, 2006, edition about a Measure
37 claim filed by Mt. Hood Meadows was surreal.
Let me see if I have this right: The State of Oregon spent upward
of $10 million of our tax dollars to repair the highway to Mt.
Hood Meadows in a hurry so that Meadows Ski Resort can open and
start making money. Then a few hours before the highway opened,
Mt. Hood Meadows filed a Measure 37 claim, seeking to build 900
houses on the north side of Mount Hood or be paid by taxpayers not
to ruin Mount Hood.
The situation would be ironic if it wasn’t so grotesque. Everyone
should boycott Mt. Hood Meadows until it pays the state back for
the rush fees on the highway repair, or drops its Measure 37
claims and instead starts thanking Oregonians for all of their
help over the years.
