Artistic Musings from Young Minds

Patty Clawson - Monday, May 14, 2012

Student Exhibit at Red House Art GalleryIt seems a bit understated, that little art gallery situated beneath the tall pines across the green in downtown Graeagle.  On the roof, a large sign displays the name “Red House Art” and it has an entrance flanked by metal sculptures and a prominent free standing mobile that whirls in the wind as if to greet you.  ..

So during Thanksgiving weekend my mom and I borrowed some snowshoes, loaded the dog into the car, and headed up the mountain for an afternoon in the snow.

We started at the Round Lake Trailhead, and found that the old snow, which would have been too heavy and sticky for comfortable skiing, was easy to negotiate in snowshoes. The dog had a harder time of it, but his enthusiasm was up to the challenge. ..

Skiing at Johnsville

Kira Bohm - Thursday, January 05, 2012

I don’t remember first learning to ski. It’s one of those things that I feel like I’ve always known how to do. But I do know where I learned , because it’s the same place I skied for the majority of my childhood: Plumas Eureka Ski Bowl at Johnsville. ..
