My neighbors here and a few other places got some more moisture. Indeed it was in the form of snow and it was pretty chilly when the wind was blowing, but we were still thrilled to get moisture of any description. Others weren’t so fortunate, plus prairie fires have persisted. It’s been a tough year so far in many regards. Here’s hoping for more moisture, sunny days in between, no more fires and better times. The folks in charge of both the NHSRA and NJrHSRA finals have said that both fin...

By Paula Peterson EL DORADO COUNTY, Calif. - During a special meeting on Tuesday the El Dorado County Board of Supervisors divided up the undesignated collected tourist occupancy tax (TOT) to several different entities, though not all requests were funded.

He also visited the Sick Kids’ Hospital, then at Yorkhill, where he made a y...

LOCKDOWN was already pretty bad, but last week’s snow made that cooped up feeling even worse. It’s been some time since we had enough snow to make a snowball, let alone a snowman, and it was cruel not to be able to enjoy the white stuff with our grandchildren.
