Books, Postcards, last minute GREAT gifts!

The book signing on Sunday afternoon was quite an event.  Author, Brad Bailey stepped back in time and looked quite smashing in that top hat and tails.  He had a wonderful display of old photographs and artifacts.  His book is delightful reading with many first time published photos.  Very well done.  There are also packages of postcards with vintage shots of Palomar long ago.  Available at the Palomar’s General Store, the Lake Henshaw Store or visit Amazon.com.  Brad autographed mine, then Shirley Thompson, and Scott Kardell… Let’s see, there are lotsa locals that you might catch for autographs.  Very fun!  Thanks Brad and all that contributed!     

Merry Christmas!  Bonnie

Earl needs YOU in OLD clothes at the Community Center!

From: Earl Walls

Well folks, the year is just about gone and we have still not finished the remodel of the house at the fire station for use as a community center. We still have a little time left in hopes of getting it done. To do it I need your help. A few of our professional builders have contributed extensively towards getting the project done. We are now at a point where only some shingeling needs to be done on the south and east walls in order to have the outside painted to complete our obligation under the grant received by the VFD. Due to some outside water leakage we have had to excavate and apply water-proofing along the north east walls of the house. We still need to apply a water sealant to the outside of these walls; install footing drains; and back-fill this area in order for the shingle appliers to do their job. This I hope to get done this Friday prior to the work party of the pros on Saturday. Please, if you can possibly do it show up at the house Friday morning, December 18 at 8:00 AM to help me get this done. No particular skills are needed. Do know that the job is messy, so wear old clothes you do not mind getting very dirty. Repeat: Very dirty.

Looking forward, hopefully, to seeing you there. Earl Walls
