Sonshine News

Welcome to Sonshine News. In case you are wondering why I picked this name for the newsletter, Sonshine is the nickname I use for my son Joey. In fact, it is the only one he will allow me to use. Plus we all need a little extra sunshine in our lives.


My Pick of the Week:
This person is an angel. She makes very pretty web pages. She will email you every time she gets a new page done if you ask her by email. She is a very special person. She even sends you a special welcome note. :-)

She suggested that ya'll would get a kick out of this page and I agree with her. OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF BABES IT'S A TOGETHER THING HEY GOD~~~I CAN WRITE!!!

1) Sandi, one of our sonshiners, sent this to me. It is very upsetting to both her and I. Please make us smile and do this. Thanks. Virtual petition against Makah whaling


2) As you read this, logging trucks are tearing through our National Forests, clearcutting and destroying our last ancient and wild forests.

Please take 30 seconds from your day and go to the Web Site Protect Our Heritage Forests - Send a Postcard
to send a free e-postcard for the forests.

Heritage forests provide us with:
--Hiking, Camping and Fishing;
--Clean Drinking Water;
--Homes for Grizzly Bears & Bald Eagles;
--Most importantly, our forests are a priceless legacy we must protect for future generations.

The Clinton-Gore Administration is deciding RIGHT NOW whether or not to allow logging and mining to continue in America's last
unprotected wild forests.

If you'd like to help save these majestic places as a legacy for our children, please go to the Web Site Protect Our Heritage Forests - Send a Postcard
and send your free e-postcard today.

Please pass this message on to EVERYONE you know who might possibly be concerned about the future of our environment. Don't forget your mom, your dad, your brothers and sisters, your college buddies, your coworkers and your hiking club!

One last Smile to go: Send this hug to all your friends!
