Palomar Mountain News

You may be thinking “I already saw this home!”  Well, come see what it looks like now and take another look!  Recently vacant so the owner went in with a team, did some painting, and corner-cleaned.  Much is fresh and new and neutral, and sparking clean for you!  There are some things you’ll want to do, so bring your tool box or put one of our local craftsman to work and finish it off, and decorate it just for YOU!

You’ll love the outdoor spaces with beautiful retaining and stone work, two outdoor fireplaces, the waterfall, and wrap-around decks.  Such a uniquely beautiful setting!  It has been enjoyed for many years as a full time home.  With 2122 sf and 5 different sleeping options, it sure could be a fun Vacation Rental, too!  You choose the time you want to enjoy the cabin, and have it managed for guests to enjoy.  Income producing real estate could make a lot of sense!  So many options.

It’s time for a new chapter for the Storybook House.  Click and scroll for all the MLS info and lots of photos, and come and explore your possibilities!

Thank you!  Glad to open the doors!  Bonnie Phelps

Palomar Mountain or Lake Henshaw area preferred.

Long time friends of Frank and Janice Mendenhall, David and Casey lived here for six years, moved to Idaho, and are coming back!

Do you have a 2 bedroom, 2 bath cabin or home to rent?  Ultimate wish list would include a garage and/or workshop.

  Yes, we woke to a beautiful rain on Palomar Mountain today. 

We live right on a main road that rarely has a car go by at night.  So, I sleep with a little ‘Sound Soother’ running for those times a motorcycle wizzes by after hours.  When I woke to the sound of the rain in the very early morning, I turned off the fan, opened the window wider, pulled the covers up and was lulled back to sleep in a minute.  I woke several hours later feeling so relaxed and refreshed.  Don’t you just love listening to the rain? 

And it is so fun to be out and about.  Checking on a couple new listings coming up, I found the wind is blowin’ rain sideways.   We had lunch at Mother’s Kitchen and ran into some locals who said the Observatory reported over 5 inches of rain before noon!  Gotta love this storm!  

Mother’s Kitchen is a great place to watch the storm!  Cowboy Don, and Cecilia Borland finished off the last of their coffee and tea.  As Bill Aanestad mentioned when he sent the pic this morning, looking off their deck, “Its a beautiful day to be indoors!”

  This million dollar panorama view could be yours!  Don’t know how there could be a better view in the entire County.  Pretty spectacular.  The home is perfection.  A joy to live in full time, or easy to lock up and leave when you’re off the mountain.  You choose. 

Simply click and scroll to Life Above the Clouds.  Glad to open the doors for you!

What do you know of with a tie to Palomar?  Let’s see – Palomar Spring Water, Shirts and items from the Palomar General Store.  There are some great books on Palomar, but what else?  Suggestions for Rick are much appreciated!

From: Rick Barclay Subject: Looking for Palomar themed merchandise

I’m on the board of CALPA — an association of non-profits that support state parks. We’re having our conference in April and we’ll be having an auction to raise money. Every association donates something, ideally somehow tied in with their park or region. Last year we donated wine from Palomar winery in Temecula… just because of the Palomar name connection.

I’m not looking for a donation — but I am looking for ideas. Are you aware of any products that are made on Palomar (or even the reservations or Valley Center) or that pertain to Palomar or the region that might have some appeal to people outside the area? Has to be something someone could carry on a plane. Looking at $100 total, one item or a bundle of different items.

Thanks,

Rick

From: CLIFF KELLOGG Subject: Sand Bags for the Community

We have a pile of sand that was delivered by the County Road Department for sand bags.

Bags and a shovel are being provided by the fire department for filling.  They are located at the corner of Crestline and East Grade Roads on fire department property.

If you need sand bags, please help yourself.

Subject: Need to borrow Windows 7 Home premium installation disk

I am attempting to repair a laptop computer owned by Paul and Vicky who are visiting from China.

The laptop is running Windows 7 Home Premium. I tried using my Windows 7 Professional DVD to repair

the Home Premium operating system, but had no success. If any one has the Windows 7 Home Premium installation disk, I would like to borrow it.

Thanks

Recent work has been done with the County Building Department who is giving a ‘thumbs up’ for Cedar Haven on a half acre.  With peaceful, private views to the Observatory and a setting around boulders, it should someday be a charming cabin location. Does it have YOUR name on it?

Glad to walk the property with you, get those questions answered, and be a part in making your dreams come true!

Click and scroll to see Cedar Haven and lots of information waiting for you.
