 Thanks to Brad Ells for sending this article our way. Most of our fall color is gone now but think many of you will enjoy the State Park info.

Your turn – I just sent mine!  Thanks to Big Jim Dunbar for sending this our way:

When you go to this website, www.LetsSayThanks.com   you can pick out a thank you card, add a personal comment or click on a pre-written one.  Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq/Afghanistan. It is FREE and it only takes a few seconds. 
  
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if the soldiers received a bunch of these from Palomar Mountain and beyond?  What an easy way to say thank you.    Please take the time and please take the time to pass it on for others to do too.  We can never say “thank you’ enough to our Military.

 Need a place for over-flow during the Holidays?   Roads closed and you can’t get up the hill to Palomar Mountain?  Need a place to stay close by? 

 Come for a delightful getaway at Cupid’s Castle Bed and Breakfast.  $50.00 off for Palomar residents and families. 

Cupid’s Castle is at the foot of the Mountain, one mile up from the Stage Stop and Jilberto’s. Click to see more by visiting our website.

Merry Christmas to You from Ted and Connie

 Had several calls and e-mails today wondering about the weather.  Thought it would be a good time to turn around a link with ‘news you can use’ gearing up for lots of rain coming our way and eventually that very fun white stuff!

Click to go to our community page for weather and snow tips and pix including my favorite weather link, NOAA on the top left of that page.

Is it snowing on Palomar? Take a peek at our webcams. We have two to choose from; one in the forest off Fern Meadow Road, and the other looking off the mountain south of Crestline.  If you aren’t up here to look out the window, those webcams are the easiest way to tell if we have snow!  Thanks Paul and Erik! 

What is the temperature?  Check out the weather stations showing our highs, lows and the wind speed. 

 Have you Winterized?  Low on Propane?  Who plows snow? What about a generator? Power outage info? Need firewood? Road conditions on Palomar?  It is all there for you! 

I’m dreaming of a White Christmas with chestnuts roasting by an open fire (hummmm, now that could be fun one of these days)!

Hoping YOU are planning on joining in on the community fun this Saturday Night!

5:00 pm The festivities begin at Earl and Louise Wall’s home for appetizers.   Bring your family favorite appetizer and we’ll have a delightful evening caroling around the piano while enjoying their home that Earl designed to take advantage of the fabulous view.

6:30 ish Mike and Sue Stevens (started this whole idea this year!) will have a big pot of Mike’s mountain venison chili and Sue’s home-made cornbread.  We’re also looking for someone to have a crock pot of a favorite soup to also share at this stop (Will that be YOU?) .  You’ll love seeing what they have done with a huge remodeling project starting out as a tractor barn and now a wonderfully inviting hunting lodge.

8:00 ish We all bundle up and head off for yummy desserts and my family recipe of the best hot cider you’ve ever had!   Hot chocolate, coffee, tea and tasty desserts. Where will that take place?  Well, we had such a fun time at the Palomar Lodge after caroling last Thursday, I asked the owner if we could use it Saturday night and (drum roll) he said “Yes”.  Terri and Vandy Bailey had it decorated so pretty and left it all set for us.  We’ll warm up by the fire, getting to know our mountain neighbors. 

Bring:  Your favorite appetizer, soup, or dessert.

Questions?  Leave a comment or call 760 742-1742.

Merry Christmas to all!

I still remember when you first showed us our land.  You asked us to wear “no open toe shoes”.

Have you fallen recently or injured yourself?  Are you having migraines or headaches?

Do you have some ache or sore that hasn’t resolved yet or that you are concerned about?

Palomar Mountain has its very own licensed, mobile chiropractor who will come to you for your health needs!

Dr. Loren Moore is here to help!  He is an experienced chiropractor who tailors every treatment to your body’s specific needs. He addresses the alignment and integrity of your spine, muscles, and ligaments as well as the other areas often overlooked that make-up your total well-being: nutrition, toxins, allergens, electromagnetic hypersensitivities, and the physiologic effect of emotional stressors.

TESTIMONIALS from Mountain folks:

While I was caroling a few nights back, I took a misstep into a small hole and jarred my back. The pain was excruciating and it was difficult to get up from a seated position. Dr. Moore came by and worked on me. Immediately I felt much better!  The next day the pain was completely gone and I could get around more freely!   – Abraham

I had been suffering from pain and tingling in both my hands for quite some time. At my age, I was very concerned that it might be arthritis. Dr. Moore worked on my neck, back, and my arms and the joint pain and tingling have stopped! I’m so very grateful for his help!  – Mary

My husband and I drove to Palomar mountain to visit friends. Sitting in the car, coupled with twisting tending our baby in the back seat, the middle of my back went out.  As a result, it became very painful and difficult to breathe. Dr. Moore adjusted my rib and did trigger-point therapy on my back to relax the spasms I was experiencing. I am now feeling and breathing just fine!  – Amanda

A couple weeks ago, I was riding my horse when he slipped on the ice and we both fell.  I’m thankful that Loren could work on me that night as the pain was much relieved and my range of movement was returned.  Now, I’m able to saddle up again and go!  – Don

Suffering from migraines for over a week, Loren adjusted me and found some pressure points that provided amazing relief.  My headache is gone and we’re taking off on vacation! Thank you Loren!  – Carla

When you, or someone you know can benefit from his services, please call or email to book an appointment, order a Holiday Gift Certificate, or get your questions answered.
