Boone retirement & Oh, lordy … local politics

Our own local USFS fire captain, Michael Boone is retiring at the end of the year!! Wow. He’s been here forever, supporting locals and our values, and providing insight and cooperation between the USFS and local inholders. Michael you have been invaluable, and will be sorely missed. Please stop by the PV Station and wish Michael well as he leaves us. Goodbye Michael. I wish you the best in your retirement!!

I’v e only missed a handful of BSMAAC meetings in the 23 years I’ve lived here, but today’s meeting was truly fascinating! It was not very well attended. I will report the “facts” tomorrow. So … until tomorrow, bigsurkate, taking the night off.

Oh, and keep an eye on weather reports. At the moment, 1/2 inch expected on Sunday.
