As I said before, can’t that navy find a empty non wilderness field in eastern Washington were they will not bother people or wild life at all. The people in the navy do great thongs ( thank you) But how about a win win situation. If anyone on this site wants to respond to my opinion, feel free.

Another beautiful day in victoria and gardening season is starting. Usually I head out and enjoy the peaceful calm of my garden and love sharing it with the soft sounds of my chickens and the local bird population. Today the only sounds I heard were the loud, low, ominous rumbling sounds of growler jets coming from the Widbey Island Airforce base. I have been hearing them from inside my home for the better part of two years with recent months days the sound so loud the windows shake. Hearing them all day long as I work outside is even worse. I resent the noise pollution in my neighborhood. I fear for the lost income from tourists to our area who do not wish to be exposed to constant noise from the american military jets. My farm animals are in a constant state of adjitation as the ground shaking feels like the start of an earthquake. My distress levels are rising daily. I understand that more jets have been purchased and will be used even more frequently in this densely populated area. I find this to be completely unacceptable. I urge the US government to seriously consider the tremendous negative impact this current practice is having not only on its citizens but Canadians as well.
