This is the good that we hold on to
Last December when I asked our local community for help with collecting toys for children in need, a man I had never met named Bob suddenly appeared and donated three big bags of brand new toys for the Toy Giveaway Christmas Event taking place on Dec. 20 to benefit children in need.
Coach: The sports fan
This little ball of cuteness is Coach. He’s a 3-year-old poodle-mix who rescued me two years ago. When I saw him at the shelter in Yuma, Ariz. I knew I was destined to give him his forever home. I’ve never known the absolute love and joy of any dog prior or any dog since – he really is my soul pup. While he’s a ball of energy who loves running in the park and chasing squirrels, he’s also perfectly happy cuddling and watching TV. In case you’re wondering: He’s not named after Coach, the luxury leather goods brand, but Coach Ditka from the 1985 Super Bowl champion Chicago Bears.
$18k down, First 5 fumble, a wide hobby world and a sapphire-special casino night
Drum roll, please, for this statement from the Garlic Festival Board of Directors regarding missing revenue: “Since the discovery of missing funds from a ticket booth, the 2012 Garlic Festival Board of Directors has chosen to address this incident as a criminal matter and defer comment to the Gilroy Police Department. This incident will in no way impact the total revenue distribution to participating non-profit organizations.” Batten down the hatches. So, GPD, how many interviews have been conducted? In the department’s view, is there clear evidence of a theft? Have the suspect(s) been contacted? Is the District Attorney’s office reviewing the facts? What are the facts thus far? If answers to these basic questions would “compromise” the investigation, please explain how that’s the case. and they should be given as much information as possible as soon as it’s available.
Speeders, motorcycles take advantage on Westwood Drive
I live on the 8000 block of Westwood Drive and I notice there is no speed sign going toward Welburn. We get a lot of speeders and motorcycles. It's terrible. They need to put a sign up. Thanks.
Hiking Barry’s Pinnacle loop
Pinnacles National Park is just far enough away to place it beyond the "Hey, let's go for a hike this afternoon" category. It's more of a "We gotta get down to Pinnacles sometime this spring" place. And often, we don't get around to it.
