Day 14 a neat relaxing job opportunity

So here we are today, a massively changed world, the USA being respected once more, me feeling great to be an American. If the much beloved President does read my blog, I am honored and thank you for taking the time. I know I can go on and on, but from the bottom of my heart, I feel this is so important.

A couple of months ago, when this all was starting with my health, I talked to a very dear friend of mine, David, in that working in stressful environments is something I no longer can do until the uncertainty of my potential Poryphia is diagnosed and a possible outcome comes from it. I need to think long and hard what I can do that one helps the planet, that I think is also so very important, and something that is low stress making a few bucks. You see my needs are not that great, just keeping busy, doing something I love, and that it at least pays for itself.

So I found something I think meets that criteria. Sometimes I think my ancestors talk to me in unseen ways. Sunday night I was watching PBS on a Nature program, in that our salmon populations are in big trouble. They also are asking for help. They need regular people like you and me to go fishing. The salmon have a threat it is the Northern Pikeminnow. It eats the struggling salmon on their way out to sea. The salmon have a real tough time of it already and our dams we have built the warm slow waters post dam lead to pikeminnow populations to grow all at the expense of the salmon.

If you are interested as this is a lot of hard work but fun and best in twos, let me know. The best is a boat, so if you have one all the better. I want to outfit it with an electric motor batteries and a solar array charger so we do not have any costs with expensive repairs or any consumable energy costs. It starts now and requires two fishing licenses.

Oregon has a special program for a Aquatic Invasive Species Prevention Permit which includes a fishing license and can be seen here: https://or.outdoorcentral.us/or/license

The state of Washington is here: http://wdfw.wa.gov/licensing/crss_endorsement/

Needless to say both these states are very worried about this. As usual California is in denial the problem even exist and lo we have a decimated salmon population even with no hunting. Sometimes I wonder what is wrong with us.

A favorite quote comes to mind with our desires to hire PhD's and put them in high places like our California Fish and Game.

"It has time after time fooled people who weren't fools, people who merely miscalculated, or failed to take into account its almost infinite variables, or used inadequate models, or out-of-date models, or mistaken assumptions."

That comes from a legislator in Missouri talking in the 1970's about the desire to blow up a levee to save the town of Cairo Illinois.
