One Down, Another on the Calendar I don’t know why it is, but springtime in the foothills means busy time in the foothills. For example, last Saturday was the CV Chamber of Commerce’s Hometown Country Fair. I sit on the chamber board and was in charge of getting the volunteers to help fill the many […]

Typically, when January rolls around, we’re left with a sugar hangover while searching for the phone number of the nearest weight […]
Like a Proud Mama I went out of town last week after the paper was “put to bed” on Wednesday night, heading to Cambria (or as I put it, Cambriahhhh) for some much needed R&R. Phone reception is spotty in Cambria, so I did drag my computer along with me just to keep in touch. […]
