Red Phone: Low branches need to be cut
"While the trees lining Miller Avenue are very majestic, they are also more than 100 years old, and thus the question arises – how healthy are they? With their large massive limbs over the street and houses, a falling limb could inflict enough damage to kill a pedestrian or crush a car. Has the city consulted an arborist to establish reasonable assurance these trees are safe and there is low possibility of falling limbs?"
Fruity finesse
With our 5-year-old granddaughter in tow, we recently visited Casa de Fruta, an eclectic experience that combines fun for both adults and children, all in one venue. Casa de Fruta offers a casual restaurant, 3-star lodging, amusement rides for children, a huge fruit stand, a candy shop and a wine tasting room. Because granddaughters always take precedence, we started out on the miniature locomotive and Venetian carousel ride. While my husband watched her play at the children’s playground, I ventured across the parking lot over to their wine-tasting room.
