THANK YOU TO ALL
Thank you to all who are so supportive of my bid to the county council. So many of you have had encouraging and thoughtful words. I really appreciate your support.
I am currently working on the Peace Day parade in Honokaa, to be held on September 22, 2012. I am helping organize the 5K run/2 mile walk. Hope you will join us there. We all need to move more!

Being third
It is an interesting experience being at the mercy of the electorate. Thank you to my many supporters who have offered their thanks for my candidacy.
As I explain to anyone who will listen, I was bested by a 26 year old single mother with a high school education.
I wonder what that says?

Thanks to all!!
Well, the election results are in, and I placed third, so I am not going to go on to the general.
Thank you to everyone who followed this blog, read my thoughts and kept up with the campaign. I guess there just weren't quite enough of "us" to pull it together. But I am so grateful to every person out there who went out to vote, and make her voice heard.
The district of Hamakua has spoken, unfortunately I will not be the spokesperson to go forward. Thanks for following the blog.
My supporters are the greatest. I am overwhelmed by your confidence. Thank you.

Day before the day
Thank you to all the readers who have been keeping up with this blog. You've gotten a good insight into what I think is important.
Now, you've got to know what I think is REALLY REALLY important. VOTING tomorrow. Many of you have already cast your vote, but tomorrow is the absolute last last day to do it.
I'm kind of old fashion in that I like going to the polls, greeting the workers, seeing friends, feeling like voting is a big deal, and important.
So, no matter who your candidate may be, get out there and make your voice heard. Truly, every vote counts (gives me chicken skin, like that guy in Wainaku said).

Women in sports
Thank you Patsy Mink and Title IX!! 40 years of equality in sports has lead to a strong American field in the Olympics. Women took gold in soccer, beating Japan 2-1 after losing to Japan in the World Cup last year on penalty kicks.
40 years ago they say that 1 in 27 girls played sports and now the number is 2 in 5 girls are active in sports.
I know what that training, dedication and perseverance takes. I am so proud of every single girl I had the pleasure of coaching. They have given me so much inspiration, and hope for all young women.

Sign waving down by Hilo
It was an overcast afternoon. Plenty of cars zipping by. No other candidates around as Addie and I held the sign and waved and waved and waved. Lots of waves, some honks. I think the honks are from folks who have done sign waving.
It is a humbling experience.
