Fun for the kids

Rep. Brendan Williams (D-Olympia) has proposed the Pacific chorus frog be named the state amphibian.

I think we'll be able to avoid the fierce potato versus onion battle that doomed naming the state vegetable" in a recent session, Williams said. "I don't think there's any particular frog lobby out there that will protest."

I would be careful. You never know if supporters of the Columbia Spotted Frog might get energized.

But yeah, those potato people, they were off the charts. Here it is snowing and now I want a nice fresh Walla Walla sweet.
