A Return to Hope
I’m a permanent tweener. Not what you think that means, as the media calls it. I’m not between childhood and the teenage years (although I know some women who would argue that point). The tags that the media has applied to describing the different generations in this country simply don’t apply to me. My parents [...]
Why Battelle is so Important
This week we were again reminded, in a huge way, how important Battelle is to the Tri Cities. Not just because they are a big employer here, or the impact they have on research and innovation in key fundamental sciences and technology. Battelle has consistently been a good neighbor for us, funneling large amounts of [...]

I’m Loving it! (with apologies to MickyD’s)
I’d like to share a video that really shows why Richland, Pasco and Kennewick is such a great place to live. I grew up here, my kids have grown up here, and my mom grew up here- see the pattern?? We spend as much time as possible on the river during the summer. On the Columbia [...]
