I agree with the feelings
expressed by the author of a letter
in the Leader, June 21 regarding
the Growler complaints in Port
Townsend, “Let it go.”
I live Uptown and I seldom hear
their noise and have actually never
seen one flying overhead.
Come on, there are more distressing
daily noises when you step
outside, power mowers, leaf blowers,
chainsaws, roofing nail guns,
low flying personal aircraft, Coast
Guard and hospital choppers, float
planes, sirens, gun shots from a
nearby firing range. Besides, someone’s
son or daughter has a pretty
scary job flying a Growler.
Of course, the folks living in Oak
Harbor next to the practice landing
strip may have another viewpoint.
Personally, I’m for putting an end
to those lovesick seals barking from
atop the Point Hudson buoy.
