The mayor is on the road again, heading north, across the basin and range of the intermountain West-that vast part of the country that is the least populated: great parts of Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, and a little piece of California.
A small contingent of officials will inspect Glacier National Park, and hopefully, provide some useful information about marketing the outdoor attributes of Tahoma and the westshore of Tahoe. Despite an uptick in visitors observed this weekend, it still does not appear to be anything to rave about. The drag of the recession continues to pull on businesses around the basin.
The paddle boat event at Meeks seemed to go OK, but more info is needed for proper evaluation.
BIKERS ON THE ROAD
Caution advised: cyclists continue to ignore the bikepath in favor of the open road . What does it take to get the message across? Who knows? I guess it is similar to the use of cell phones while driving: keep raising the costs of infraction until you get results!
Bears, again.
It was reported to our office that a medium sized black bear(they are all black bears) completely upended a 4 yd dumpster in Glenridge last week. The contents remained inside and the bruin went home in disgust. He vowed to seek better results in McKinney Shores.
West Shore Cafe
The office staff enjoyed a beverage on the deck Friday night-the weather was perfect and a good crowd was gathering in the restaurant and at the bar. The amiable staff was happy with the surge in business. God luck this summer!
Wedding on the beach
Set ups were in progress in front of the Erhman mansion at Sugar Pine Park for Saturday nuptials. Here is a sure sign of summer- a lakefront wedding. The beach was busy with lots of visitors, many of whom were camped out at General Creek, which is flowing better thanit has in years. A strong current could be felt 30 yards off shore as the mayor paddled his craft through the cold water.
