Reduced hours at Palomar PO – thoughts?
From: David Ross [mailto:editor@valleycenter.com]
The USPS has given Palomar Mountain residents a 30-day notice that the hours at the mountain post office will now be 9:30 a.m.–4:30 p.m. on weekdays, with the window closed for lunch from 12:30-1:30 p.m. Saturday hours will remain the same: 8:30 a.m.–noon. This will be effective Jan. 26, 2013.
I’m wanting to get some comments from local residents about the new hours for an article I’m writing for The Roadrunner. Please contact me at the number below, or email me at editor@valleycenter.com if you want to comment about how the change will affect you, if at all.
Regards,
David Ross

Is it snowing? Here is a webcam for you:
Oh, it has tried to snow… just not quite cold enough to stick. Already had about 3 inches of rain in this storm. Maybe snow later tonight? Here is one of several webcams for you – thanks to Erik Thompson: http://palomarmountainwebcam.com/

Dream Wedding and Palomar Insurance?
What does hosting a Dream Wedding at the Rose Parade and a great option for insurance on Palomar Mountain have in common? We have appreciated the service from Jereme Wilson, who provides for our homes and vehicles. Insurance can be hard to get and keep up here and he has been a pleasure to work with for us, and many of our clients.
Jereme is our local Farmers Insurance agent. Farmers is hosting a Dream Wedding on their Farmer’s Insurance Float in the Rose Parade. So, I thought this might be the perfect time to turn around his info, and pass on a fun wedding link:

Cute, Cozy, Cabin in the Woods
This listing was up for just a couple of days when the owner called and said, “Tell them I’m a motivated seller and reduce it $10,000”! It is the lowest price on Palomar!!!
I realized with all the Thanksgiving turkey and extra pie, somehow along the way, I hadn’t even posted this cute, cozy, cabin in the woods yet for all of you! Well, call me quick! The seller added a screened in patio to this 1932 little gem. The cabin is now staged and sparkling clean! Some great repairs have been made – a new counter in the kitchen and new roof on the outhouse! Yes, it is an original outhouse. (Don’t you love it!?!!) The seat is gone now but, oh my, what a great place for sleds! There is an album of lots more pix plus the MLS link waiting for you here.
Come see! You could be in for the first snow!

Shooting on Palomar
Hear the gun shots yesterday? Several people mentioned that they heard a lot of rapid shooting on Saturday coming from the Canfield Road area. I was visiting the AK Ranch – the new owners of the property that was formerly the Girl Scout Camp. It wasn’t them! Someone was shooting right next door on the National Forest property. But you could also hear it at Bailey’s and up on Crestline.
As many of you know, shooting is allowed on much of the land on Palomar (not in the housing areas). Depending on where you are on the mountain, some of the topography makes it seem even louder a distance away. I know most property owners want to be very considerate of their neighbors. I’m sure those guys on National Forest were having a great time but we’re thankful they ran out of bullets.
That’s the latest!

Giving Thanks
Hoping you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We celebrated with our family and friends in our Hay Barn and around the campfire. So special.
Just want you to know that I am doing my part keeping the computer business booming. I had my newest one up on a shelf to play music for our celebration, went to move it and it bounced, and bounced again. My early Christmas present is finally up and working. I am very thankful that all was up on a cloud but there is a lot waiting for me. Thanks for the patience of my clients waiting for new listings to head your way (stay tuned!), for those of you waiting for a response, or who sent a message my way to turn around. Lots on the way!
Learning Windows 8 and thankful for YOU!
