Newsom is slow dancing California - & I like it [View all]

[kpete]

I was born here (LA) but spent my first 30 years moving around the planet. I have spent the last 38 firmly planted on California soil. I love this crazy place. It has everything & lots of variety - the people, the geography, flora, fauna, the tastes and smells.

We have had our share of catastrophes; drought, fire, earthquakes, ronald reagan and now this.
Last week, I thought perhaps government officials (including Newsom) were feeling pressure and might act too quickly to open up. I think they have shelved their fears and slowed it down.

I listen to Newsom & our county supervisors every day and sometimes find the pace excruciatingly slow but thorough. I want information, as much information as possible. It takes me a while to process it all. Usually a long walk helps.

The governor's tactic seems to be: Stall for time.

I like it and I think it just might work.

Salud everyone,
