There comes a time in everyone's life where they must do

Holiday Weekend July 4th

During this long 4th of July weekend, please keep your cats indoors-only, and keep your dogs indoors as much as possible, too.  If you take your dog out, please keep him on a leash.  Firecrackers (the “safe and sane” legal version, or the illegal varieties) make a lot of noise, and most dogs and cats are very stressed by the noise.  So please keep them indoors, so they don’t panic, run away and become lost.

Fast friends for a lifetime

I’ve never had so much fun in my life before I moved to Gilroy, seven years ago. I used to live in San Jose—where neighbors were cordial but where we all stayed to ourselves. On the weekends my husband and I either entertained close friends at our home or visited these same friends at their homes across town. My life revolved around my job and family life (all good things) without any interaction with my community. I often felt like City government and issues were miles away from me and that I was just an onlooker in my community.
