It's getting ugly here in the canyon - someone posted on the neighborhood Facebook page that they want to buy their neighbor's land before the county buys it, and then the owner of that property pointed out that just because their house was destroyed in the flood, they could still rebuild there if it is elevated above flood level.

This was their home, not a second home/mountain getaway like that of their neighbor. And they are not going to sell their land at bargain prices just because the vulture, monster neighbors are trying for a land grab. So then, other people have chimed in with name-calling, and just picture that these people are all neighbors, and someday they might be once again living next door to each other, about four feet apart.

Standing on our driveway, you can see about 100 fine trout in this part of the river. I sent out an email to the fishing club that our fishing is open for business.



See that lighter chewed off branch? Bucky the Beaver did that, maybe since the flood.
