An old Durangoan’s 9-R ballot choices

There’s not much I recognize about Durango in this prophesied Kali Yuga daze compared to when I was kid my daughter’s age in the early ’70s.

Yet? I certainly can still recognize a wolf in sheep’s clothing (cuz yeah, I grew up with a wolf hybrid named Apache up Junction Creek a stone’s throw from what is now the lower Colorado Trail trailhead), and that wolf is actually a Trojan horse with the name “Building Durango’s Future.” More like, “Hell Bent On Combusting Durango’s Future,” truth be told.

Feeble Ilg’s ballot is thusly marked, and I encourage yours toward the same: Rick Petersen, Erika Brown and Andrea Parmenter.

Head bowed, Native spirit vowed,

Steve Ilg
