Palomar Mountain News

Yesterday I had a little holiday in the city so was away from my phone and computer and caught up on your many messages pretty late.   It was pretty slow coming up the grade late last night as I was following a couple big tractor/trailers with huge track bulldozers with ‘Oversized Load” signs.   I wasn’t complaining since I guessed they were heading out to Warner Springs to work on that Chihuahua Valley Fire.

Lightening was responsable for fires around Palomar.  One was put out pretty fast near Morgan Hill, above the Christian Conference Center and the Doane Valley area.

Just checked NOAA, the National Weather Service and saw this pic for the first time.  They are predicting “Patchy Smoke” on the Mountain today with 86 degrees.  It is totally clear at our place right now.  But, some of us out and about on the might have some smoke from all the efforts of many folks working to get the fire contained on the north side.  THANKS to all!

The two acres these four little cabins are nestled on have a very unique zoning for Palomar.  This is the only property zoned for ‘1 to 4 units’ in the zip code.  The utilities are in place, and for those looking for a project, you will be very content.  Meanwhile, you can enjoy the cabin as the owners have for decades. More pix soon! Then, let’s go see!

-4 day cruise to Baja

-$500 to South Coast Winery and Resort

(Special note; the cruise is booked with a traveling agent, so if the people that win that prize to not want to go to Baja, they can use the cruise money to go towards anything they like; a flight, another cruise, hotel stay…etc. They can not redeem it for cash. If they choose the Cruise to Baja, and they want a better room, the up grade will be at their expense. If they stay in the room that it was quoted at, and it doesn’t cost the full $900, then that extra money will be put toward ship spending money, i.e. to buy alcohol, gift shopping, food, or land adventures.)
