Dantes View, Mesquite Sand Dunes among areas visitors will be able to access Register Staff

Death Valley National Park announced today that some recently closed areas of the park will once again be acces-sible to visitors in the coming days. Some visitor services, including campgrounds and the Stovepipe Wells Contact Station, will also reopen using revenue generated by recre-ation fees. Visitors should go to the park website at nps.gov/deva while planning their trip to get the latest informa-tion on accessibility and avail-able services.

Areas that have been recently closed but that are or will be accessible to park visitors include:

– Dantes View, Artists Drive, Natural Bridge, Harmony Borax Works and Mustard Canyon, Salt Creek, Keane Wonder Mine, Mesquite Sand Dunes, and Historic Stovepipe Wells Roads.

Because of the distances and complexities involved and unknown nature of all issues, the opening of these sites may take a week or lon-ger. Scotty’s Castle remains closed due to flood damage. Mosaic Canyon Road remains closed in association with water utility work for Stovepipe Wells Village. Upper and Lower Wildrose Roads are closed due to snow and ice.

National Park Service offi-cials have determined that by using Federal Land and Recreation Enhancement funds to immediately bring back park maintenance crews to clean restrooms, remove trash, and remove health and safety risks park staff will be

able to restore accessibility to the park.

Through generous dona-tions from the Death Valley Natural History Association, the Furnace Creek Visitor Center will remain open. Entrance fees and camping fees will not be collected and ranger programs will not be offered.

The National Park Service cares for special places saved by the American people so that all may experience our heritage.

“We greatly appreciate the generous contributions of park partners who have pro-vided support during the lapse in appropriations,” said park superintendent Reynolds. “Their efforts have contributed significantly to our ability to maintain access and limited services to Death Valley National Park.”

Non-profits, private business contribute to keep centers staffedBy Jon KlusmireRegister Correspondent

Working around the feder-al government’s shutdown, several federal agencies and

their non-profit partners have found ways to partially re-open visitor centers in the Eastern Sierra and Death Valley.

The non-profit, Bishop-based Eastern Sierra Interpretive Association announced that it will use its resources to reopen the Mammoth Lakes Welcome Center, the Eastern Sierra Interagency Visitor Center south of Lone Pine, and the Manzanar Visitor Center and

Block 14 exhibits. Those visi-tor centers will be open over the Martin Luther King Day three-day weekend, and the next weekend.

In Death Valley National Park, the Furnace Creek Visitor Center has been open for some time, thanks to the donations from the Death Valley Natural History Association, the non-profit organization that operates the visitor centers in the park. The Park Service has also

maneuvered existing funding so it can reopen some previ-ously closed parts of the sprawling park.

Also, the privately owned resorts, hotels, campgrounds and other facilities at Furnace Creek -- the Oasis at Death Valley and the Ranch at Death Valley -- and the Panamint Springs Resort and the Stovepipe Wells Resort are also open and serving vis-itors.

“We greatly appreciate the

generous contributions of park partners who have pro-vided support during the lapse in appropriations,” said Death Valley National Park Superintendent Mike Reynolds in a press release. “Their efforts have contribut-ed significantly to our ability to maintain access and limit-ed services to Death Valley National Park.”

Roughly 300 federal jobs are located in Inyo CountyBy Jon KlusmireRegister Correspondent

As the partial federal gov-ernment shutdown nears the one month mark, Inyo County’s corps of federal employees are feeling the pinch of going without pay-checks and are also con-cerned about the daunting task of making up a month’s worth of missed work.

A number of local federal employees recently revealed their concerns for their own financial situation and the potential longer term impacts of not being able to handle the routine, daily tasks criti-cal to the operation of the various federal agencies that are closed due to the shut-down. With the federal gov-ernment owning and manag-ing 92 percent of 10,000 square miles that make up Inyo County, even those rou-tine responsibilities can have a huge impact on the local area and its tourism-based economy.

Another impact involves the private sector partners of local federal agencies which have also been locked out of their jobs. While federal employees will see back pay once the government reopens, the private sector employees will not. The impact of lost federal pay-checks on the local economy might be more subtle as those employees delay pur-chases, cut back on dining out and entertainment, and curtail day-to-day spending.

As the shutdown contin-ues, those larger impacts will likely become more apparent since federal employees are some of the higher paid workers in Inyo County. Statistics from the California Employment Development Department note that in 2018 the federal payroll in Inyo County is about $4.4 million. The state reports that there are roughly 300 federal jobs in Inyo County. Those federal jobs pay substantially more than the average private sec-tor job throughout Inyo County. The average federal salary was about $1,200 a week in 2018, compared to the average weekly pay for private sector workers of $721 a week.

“I’m doing a lot better than a lot of my co-workers,” sev-eral of whom are “dual-income couples” who both work for closed federal agen-cies, and have children, mort-gages and other expenses that cannot be put off, said a federal employee who, like all

adjective:1. marked by excitement, disorder, or anxiety-driven activity : frenzied, frantic

examples:<For Youse and the roughly 90 employees who work at the store, the 5-mile move capped more than a half-year of planning, fol-lowed by a frenetic two days in which everything from the one store was transferred to the other.><During his years as a sports broadcaster in Chicago, Adam Harris realized his volunteer work as a youth baseball coach often would provide a welcome break from the frenetic world of media.><If I can create some frenetic conversation this morning, it will distract Mom and I can win!>

Synonyms:When life gets frenetic, things can seem absolutely insane – at least that seems to be what folks in the Middle Ages thought. Frenetik, in Middle English, meant “insane.” When the word no longer denoted stark raving madness, it conjured up fanatical zealots. Today, its seriousness has been downgraded to something more akin to “hec-tic.” But if you trace frenetic back through Anglo-French and Latin, you’ll find that it comes from Greek phrenitis, a term describing an inflammation of the brain. Phren, the Greek word for “mind,” is a root you will recognize in schizophrenic. As for frenzied and frantic, they’re not only synonyms of frenetic but relatives as well. Frantic comes from frenetik, and frenzied traces back to phrenitis.

DONATIONSContinued from front page partial government shut-down was a factor in the decision by the Eastern Sierra Interpretive Association to find a way to open the three sites for the busy Martin Luther King Day weekend.

“As Americans we can’t forget about the 800,000 fed-eral employees personally affected by the federal gov-ernment shutdown. We also must realize the communi-ties in which those federal employees work are experi-encing tremendous financial impacts as well,” said Jeff Gabriel, ESIA executive direc-tor in a written statement. “When the chance for us to help our federal partners during the shutdown … we were more than willing to help.”

The donations from ESIA’s coffers will allow the Manzanar National Historic Site bookstore, visitor center and Block 14 exhibit build-ings to be open to the public from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. from Jan. 18 through Monday, Jan. 21, and from Friday, Jan. 25 through Sunday, Jan. 27. After that weekend there are no cur-rent plans to reopen those sites.

The Manzanar visitor cen-ter features a bookstore and gift shop, a 22-minute intro-ductory film, and extensive permanent exhibits. Block 14

SHUTDOwNContinued from front page others contacted for this story, spoke on the condi-tion of anonymity because of the personal nature of their financial situation.

“I count on my regular paychecks to pay my monthly bills,” noted a fed-eral employee. If the shut-down continues, the employee said there would likely be no money to cover the next group of routine, monthly bills and expenses, from rent to groceries. “Because I am not getting paid, I have to figure out which bills I can pay late, which I can ask for a reduc-tion or deferment, and which are for services I can do without.”

While those federal employees will get back pay for the time they were fur-loughed or worked without pay, another group of workers will not. Jeff Gabriel, executive director of the non-profit Eastern Sierra Interpretive Association, which operates

visitors centers and infor-mation services in partner-ship with federal agencies, is feeling the financial impact of the shutdown. The federal buildings are closed, so ESIA workers cannot work. Those work-ers, Gabriel said, are not getting paid and will not get back pay, so they are looking at missing a month worth of income. Even as some visitor centers reopen, the employees will not get back pay and ESIA will have to absorb the lost sales and other revenue.

The organization itself will likely lose close to $40,000 in missed sales revenue at shuttered visitor centers up and down the Sierra, Gabriel estimated. While ESIA has reserves to pay for the minimal staff still working short days and continues to pay vendors and other daily expenses, “it takes years to replenish what you deplete,” from the reserves, Gabriel said.

Local employees are also

feeling the uncertainty gen-erated by the gridlock in Washington, DC, regarding efforts to once again pro-vide funding for the closed agencies.

“I don’t know when I’m going to get paid again, and I don’t know when I’m going to work again,” said one worker.

Another worker noted that the uncertainties com-ing from not working and getting paid mean, “the fear and depression is hard to escape.”

As the shutdown became the longest in US history, a federal employee said “I’m applying for jobs and look-ing at other options. I’m deciding if working for the government is worth it.”

Besides the stress on federal employees who have missed paychecks, there are other negative impacts to the shutdown. The shutdown costs also include “lost productivity and services,” one federal employee pointed out.

Once the federal workforce goes back to work, “we still have to accomplish much of the work we would have done if we had been open. It’s just more stress with fewer people and resourc-es.”

In addition, those seek-ing information about win-ter recreation on federal land are not getting that information, an employee noted, which could cause safety issues and deter visi-tors from recreating on the county’s hugely popular federal lands.

This is also a critical time of year for many fed-eral operations, a federal employee pointed out. Federal agencies should be starting the process of hir-ing seasonal employees, including wildland fire fighters that start work in the spring and summer. Those applications are not being opened and no inter-views are being scheduled. Nor are the variety of man-dated federal permits being

processed. Those can range from Wilderness permits to permits for commercial film shoots on federal lands.

All of the federal employees contacted for this article expressed con-cern for the potential dam-ages to the sprawling and often isolated federal lands in Inyo County. Those lands range from Death Valley to Mt. Whitney to the Buttermilk bouldering area and are the primary tourist attractions in Inyo County.

Retired federal employee and long-time Bishop resi-dent Nancy Upham summed up the sentiments of current federal employ-ees when she said, “It is my hope that soon there will be a negotiated resolution to this impasse and that federal employees, contrac-tors and partners will be able to go back to the jobs that they love, caring for the land and serving the people who use and love that land.”

includes a replica mess hall, two reconstructed barracks and a latrine that display and interpret the challenges of daily life in the WW II Japanese-American Internment Camp. The site’s outdoor exhibits, including a driving tour, fire station, rock gardens and ponds, walking trails and the ceme-tery are accessible to the public.

The Mammoth Lakes Welcome Center and the Eastern Sierra Interagency Visitor Center south of Lone Pine are critical points of contact for visitors to the region and both will be open for the next two weekends, thanks to ESIA contributions. The visitor centers will be open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. from Jan. 18 through Monday, Jan. 21, and from Friday Jan. 25 through Sunday Jan. 27.

The Furnace Creek Visitor Center is open daily from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Since reopen-ing on Dec. 30 with funding from the Death Valley History Association, visitors and supporters have made

about $8,000 in donations to help keep the center open, DVHA noted in a press release.

In addition, Death Valley National Park Superintendent Reynolds has redirected rec-reation fees to help open several formerly closed parts of the park. Those fees were also used to bring Park Service maintenance crews back to work to clean rest-rooms (some of which were

absolutely trashed), remove trash and remove other pub-lic health and safety risks. Those efforts have allowed the public to access and enjoy the park during the federal shutdown.

Areas that have reopened or that are now accessible to park visitors include: the Stovepipe Wells Campground; Dante’s View; Natural Bridge; Harmony Borax Works and Mustard

Canyon; Salt Creek; Keane Wonder Mine; Mesquite Flats Sand Dunes; and historic Stovepipe Wells Road.

The park service stressed that most visitor services and ranger patrols in the sprawling park are still sus-pended, and urged visitors to obey closure signs, stay on designated roads and trails, pack out trash and treat the park’s land and plants with respect and care.

Jeannette Jolley 1929 - 2019

Jeannette Jolley was born in Mountain View Oklahoma in 1929. She grew up on a farm surrounded by family who had settled in the same locale. In World War II her family relocated to Los Angeles and her father worked in the defense industry. She enjoyed the excitement and job opportunities of the war years in Los Angeles. Her family returned to farming by turning grapes to raisins in the San Joaquin Valley near

Selma, California. She worked for Bank of America in Fresno, followed by Sun

Maid Raisins in Fresno and then Kingsburg. She worked as a secretary as her husband Warren farmed to support their 4 children. In 1966 she was afflicted with Guillain-Barre’ virus and spent a month in the hospital as numbness first attacked and then receded from her body.

In the mid 1960’s the family moved again to Los Angeles seeking better opportunities. She found work for a company that manufactured explosives for the movie industry, but moved on to become attendance secretary for a newly built Canyon High School. She found the creative stories of high schoolers trying for excused absences more entertaining than waiting for test explosions in her old company.

In the 1970’s the family relocated again to the Eastern Sierra town of Independence California. She and Warren thoroughly enjoyed that area of the High Desert except for the remoteness from family.

In 2002 she and Warren moved to Napa to be near family. She loved the Valley, her flower garden and watching hummingbirds coming and going. Her Christian faith was central to her life. She put her family first and delighted in her friends and pets. She was a gentle soul.

She was predeceased by her husband Warren and their daughter Ruth. She leaves behind her son Leonard and his wife Maria, her daughter Martha, her son Clay and his wife Mary Kay, and several grand-children.

A memorial service will be scheduled at the First Presbyterian Church on Sunday, January 27, 2019 commencing at 2 p.m., with a reception to follow.

OBITUARY NOTICES

Here’s some clarificationBy Wendilyn GrasseschiTimes Reporter

Winter sports lovers have always had to navigate a thicket of sometimes confus-ing rules about what they can and cannot do in the Eastern Sierra’s vast snowy playground and with the recent government shutdown impacting precisely those federal lands the hardest, the questions are even more con-fusing.

Although the shutdown isn’t permanent, the rules are and that leaves snowshoers, cross country skiers, dog walkers, fat tire bikers and everyone else trying to use the snow-covered county to figure out where they can recreate and under what con-ditions.

That’s why the work Mammoth Lakes Trails and Access to Public Lands has done recently to outline the rules is a big asset.

The group, best known for its work bringing more trails to the Mammoth area, has also focused heavily on signage and getting out information to the public.

During the shutdown, other agencies, such as the Eastern Sierra Interpretive Association, have also stepped up to the plate to help outline rules.

So, here’s what cross country skiers, snowmobil-ers, dog walker, snowshoers and everyone else needs to keep in mind out there, bro-ken down by location and type of recreation.

For the ever popular Lakes Basin, the most important thing to know is the Basin is closed to motorized use of any kind, and Tamarack Cross Country Ski Area, run by Mammoth Mountain, charges a fee to use their groomed trails.

That said, if cross country skiers and snowshoers and dog walkers want to access the land beyond the groomed trails, say up at the Coldwater campground trail-heads to Duck Pass and the rest of the Sierra Backcountry, they can still walk or ski or snowshoe up the left side of the groomed trails on Lake Mary Road. Once they reach the road to the Coldwater trailheads, the restrictions are lifted as that area is not groomed by a pri-vate company and skiers and

Winter sports lovers face confusing rules

snowshoers can continue up the road. Dogs are allowed on a leash and on this bypass, as long as they do not get on the groomed trail system.

Bikes are prohibited on groomed Nordic trails and everywhere else in the Basin, according to MLTPA.

Walkers and skiers and snowshoers can use the Mammoth Lakes paved bike trail than runs through the Basin but they must be care-ful to avoid the groomed areas and not disturb the groomed cross country trail system.

The new sport of fat tire biking has also sown some confusion. At this time, fat tire bikes are allowed only on motorized trails in the Inyo National Forest and in the Shady Rest Winter Trail System, which leaves from the Shady Rest Parking Lot off of S.R. 203 by the Mammoth Lakes Welcome Center.

MLTPA suggests bikers follow this rule: if the rut the

bike leaves is deeper than two inches and the bike can-not hold a straight line, it is too deep or too soft to fat tire bike.

Shady Rest Winter Trail System is the system of non-motorized trails out behind the Mammoth Lakes Welcome Center off of State Route 203 at the east entrance to Mammoth Lakes. When there is enough snow, or the government is not shut down, it is groomed by the Inyo National Forest, leaving a smooth corridor for all users, according to previ-ous reporting. Right now, the trails are not groomed due to the government shutdown. The trails are, however, open to cross country skiers,

snowshoers and dog and non-dog walkers due to the new coating of snow on the trail system as of Jan. 6. The trails are marked by a series of “blue diamonds;” plastic diamonds about four inches by four inches nailed to trees.

EBikes are considered to be motorized recreation and as such, they are not allowed on any non-motorized or the Shady Rest Winter Trail sys-tem, even though fat tire bikes are, according to MLTPA.

There is a separate trail system for snowmobiles which starts at the first of the Shady Rest Trail Parking lots, the parking lot just north of S.R. 203. The trails

are marked by “orange dia-monds” that are nailed on trees.

Mammoth Lakes Trail System Trails: This is the paved trail system that winds through the Town of Mammoth Lakes and into outlying areas, such as up the south side of Lake Mary Road. This trail is open to all non-motorized users, such as dog walkers, cross coun-try skiers, snowshoers and snowdancers. Sometimes, the trail is plowed, allowing walkers easy access to some spectacular scenery. Other times, the trails are not groomed and as such, they are perfect for skiing, snow-shoing and the good, old-fashioned sport of post-hol-

ing through deep snow in whatever boots or shoes the walker is wearing. Be pre-pared for all conditions from powdery snow, icy snow and crusty snow, since the trails get no maintenance during the winter. Dogs are allowed on these trails on a leash.

Other areas, such as Hartley Springs, Obsidian Dome, Glass Creek and more are groomed by the Inyo National forest once there is enough snow and during reg-ular federal hours. Those trails, located north of Mammoth about 12 miles, are groomed for non-motor-ized use.

There is also a motorized use trail located right next to it.

Follow meIn Matthew 4:18-20 we read,

“Now as Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, He saw two brothers, Simon who was called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. And He said to them, ‘Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.’ Immediately they left their nets and followed Him.”

In Matthew 9:9 we read, “As Jesus went on from there, He saw a man called Matthew, sit-ting in the tax collector’s booth; and He said to him, ‘Follow Me!’ And he got up and fol-lowed Him.”

In both such instances fol-lowing Jesus was not presented as an option, but an expecta-tion of obedience to the divine imperative.

Do you remember when Jesus called to you and said, “Follow Me!”?

Where were you? What were

you doing? How did you respond?

Those of us in the church were all called to follow Christ. Individually we are called to be His disciples–followers of Christ. When we walk that road of obedience together, we are called “the Church.” As we progress, we are all moving in the same direction, and to con-tinue to follow Christ home, all the way home.

In John 10:27 Jesus states, “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.” Seems pretty clear; if we don’t hear His voice, if we don’t follow Him–then we are not His sheep.

In Matthew 16:24, He raises the bar of obedience, “If any-one wishes to come after Me,

he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me.” The person who follows Christ, who walks in His footsteps is in a journey of surrender, yield-ing his will to the will of Christ. This person is in the process of restoration: dying to self and being conformed into the image of Christ–certainly not a popular message to convey in this “Me-First” world, but the privilege of every true believer.

The rewards are spectacular. In John 12:26, Jesus says, “If anyone serves Me, he must fol-low Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also; if any-one serves Me, the Father will honor him.” Along the course of our pilgrimage, we serve Christ, and He leads us all the way home to be with Him–

forever. The crescendo of obe-dience, of that relationship is one of divine commendation–the Father of all Creation hon-ors us with divine presence.

On this earthen ball, the call in following Christ is a severe one, even a costly one–one in which we are commanded to subvert our wills to the will of Christ. One in which we willing-ly follow the Divine Shepherd wherever His good pleasure wills. Yet, the glory which awaits such submission is a blessing of Divine honor, may we say commendation: “Well done, good and faithful slave. You were faithful with a few things, I will put you in charge of many things; enter into the joy of your master” (Matthew 25:21). What a future awaits

those who follow the Messiah! I have decided to follow

Jesus. By the way, you never

answered… Do you remember when Jesus called to you and said, “Follow Me!”?

“How did you respond?” Did you follow right away?

Did you count the costs? How are you following now?

Our God is good. He desires you to follow Christ now.

Follow Him!

Rich with gratitudeRecently I read an account

about a woman that was alive when the washing machine was invented. By the time her family was able to purchase a washer she was a grandmother living with her children and grandchildren. When the machine started washing the clothes, she would pull up a chair to watch it. She was used to sitting and doing the laundry, but more than that she was amazed and thankful that a machine was doing the work she had spent so much of her time on. What an amaz-ing world, where a machine can wash our clothes.

I on the other hand rarely think about the washing machine. Sure, sometimes I’ll

think about which setting to use, or whether a load is done. But I certainly don’t sit in front of the machine in amazement. The only time I give it much thought is when it isn’t work-ing properly, and then I am tempted to curse it or kick it. Both I, and the woman from decades ago experience the same phenomenon, a washer cleaning our clothes, but we react to it in completely differ-ent ways. She with gratitude and I with indifference.

I don’t need to tell you which perspective is better. Mountains of research in the past twenty years have been revealing what we’ve already known to be true: gratitude is a wonderful way to live.

Studies have shown that grati-tude leads to greater life satis-faction, improved relation-

ships, better heart health, less illness, more exercise and is even a stimulus for moral behavior and generosity. And to this list I can add that grati-tude can improve our relation-ship with God, who is always ready to receive a grateful heart (Ps 50:23). For five arti-cles I will be leading us through an exploration of growing in gratitude. My goal in this series is to make you rich. Not by adding to your wealth, but by assisting you in perceiving and relishing what you already have. We can’t force ourselves to feel grateful, but we can train ourselves to notice our fortune and say, ‘thank you’ for it. This prac-tice, over time, leads to grate-

ful feelings.One of the tools toward

gratitude that God has used in my life over the years is a daily prayer that appears toward the end of the Anglican Morning Prayer rite. It is called the General Thanksgiving, and it has helped expand my practice of what I give thanks for on a daily basis. I will use the prayer as a template for the articles in this series. It is a lengthy prayer, and so I won’t cite it in full, but I will expound on a portion of it with each article. One of the sentences of the prayer says, “Give us such an awareness of your mercies, that with truly thankful hearts we may show forth your praise.”

What a perfect prayer to start our studies in gratitude. May God begin to heighten our sensitivities to His mercies in the coming weeks. May we begin to notice His gifts in places that we hadn’t seen before. When I open the fridge, my I be struck by the way I have fresh food from around the world in a way that none of the other 100 billion

humans that have lived before me have ever experienced. I eat better than the richest roy-alty of the middle ages. When I walk out to the garage this week, may I pause and say, “Thank you Provider, that this metal box just made my clothes clean. Thank you for the person that invented it. Thank you for the company that produced it. Thank you that I didn’t have to take two hours of my time to clean my clothes today. Thank you that I am so rich.” Maybe one day I’ll even pull up a chair and watch my washing machine run through a whole cycle. It would probably be a good use of my time.

Hold on to the tenMaybe some of you have

seen this little bit of wisdom that has been floating around on the Facebook, “Prevent truth decay. Brush up on your Bible.” This writer couldn’t help but chuckle a bit, at first. This was Facebook, after all. Then the mild amusement at the play on words dissolved into the sober-ing realization of just how true that statement is these days. Why?

Here is the first of two examples. There is a congrega-tion in Canada right now that has an atheist as a pastor. That pastor hid the true extent of her actual beliefs for several years before finally admitting them publicly. When she did a full-blown furor took place within the denomination. The denomination’s quandary was settled when it decided that she could retain her standing and position. But things went deep-er than that. Her congregation shrugged its collective shoul-ders and said that, atheist or not, she could continue to preach to them. The question becomes, how can a confessed atheist preach the full truths of the Bible if he or she thinks that at best they are allegories

or fables with a moral?The second example is clos-

er to home. We have seen a megachurch pastor that has decided that the Church needs to, as he put it, “unhitch,” itself from the Old Testament. He said it should not be, “a go-to source for any behavior.” He followed that up recently by saying that the Church has idol-ized the Ten Commandments. They do not apply because Christ gave us just one com-mandment, to love God and love our neighbor. He maintains that anything found in the

Mosaic Law, including those Ten Commandments written in stone by the hand of God Himself, is irrelevant for today.

There are many arguments against the position this pastor has taken. You’ve already seen one. The Ten were given direct-ly by God. Moses just delivered them. Another argument against his position is that Christ quoted the Ten, and other aspects of the Old Testament, as well. Christ then proceeded to amplify them. Sure, we don’t do ritual sacri-fice any more. Christ’s death and resurrection made such a thing unnecessary because He fulfilled that aspect of the Law once, and for all time and all people. We don’t worry about clean or unclean animals any-more because God took care of that one in Acts, chapter ten as well as in other places. Nor do we need adhere to the civil aspects of the Law since those were laid down specifically for Israel at that time. However, that does not mean that we cannot follow principles the Law laid down. For example, the idea a

that an accused person must have his crime confirmed by

witnesses is a hallmark of our judicial system.

For this writer there is one overriding factor in holding onto the Ten and regulating our behavior by them. My reason has little to do with the fact that a society that takes its moral stance based on those Ten is one in which people are free to live without fear of their neighbors, though that is a good thing. No, the reason is very simple. Those Ten give us an inkling into the the nature of the God we say we follow. God does not lie, cheat, steal, make false accusations, want things we own, dishonor people, or murder them. He keeps His word. And He does love. The Bible is littered throughout both Testaments with proofs, if we bother to read it and take it to heart.

So, be wise. Get to know the God we serve. As it was stated, “Prevent truth decay. Brush up on your Bible.”

(Philip Severi, a former Bishop resident, previously wrote a weekly column for The Inyo Register. He contributes to this page from his home in Twain Harte.)

Bringing about desireThomas Troward said,

The Divine Spirit is the lim-itless potential of human life.” Ernest Holmes said, “This means that the human is really Divine but will ever evolve into a newer and better state of conscious being.” My teacher, Dr. Juanella Evans said, “What you are think-ing about you are bringing about.” Given that all of these statements are true, we need to know how to put them into practice, so as to live the life we desire of good and very good.

Physical circumstances or conditions do not define man; rather our thoughts about either determines our experience. The under-standing and application of the principles of Religious Science by no means prom-ises that every condition encountered by its follow-ers will be rainbows and unicorns, however; it gives us the mental, emotional and spiritual tools with which we can meet each condition or circumstance to meet and confront a limited or negative appear-ance and bring about a change of conditions that matches or exceeds the desires of the individual.

Jesus and many others said, “It is done unto you as you believe.” The Power of your belief must be of paramount importance, for it sets the stage for experi-ence. Holmes wrote in The Science of Mind, “If we believe in suffering we shall suffer. Life responds to us in the way we approach it. We should choose that which we wish to embody and by constant attention to it take on all its characteristics. Let us choose to be identified with power, with love and beauty, with peace and happiness. Let us identify ourselves with abundance and with success.”

Holmes illustrated his statements, “Life is a black-board upon which we con-sciously or unconsciously write those messages which govern us. We hold the chalk and the eraser in our hand but are ignorant of this fact. Your beliefs and thoughts about them are molding your experi-ence, but you do not need to continue in that experi-ence. You can change it through the application of the eraser. You cannot give continuous attention to a negative situation and expect to reverse or elimi-nate its effects. The energy is removed by reversing the thoughts than over-whelm the emotional self-hood. By claiming light where there has been dark-ness, we expose the dark-ness for the pretender to be something when it has always been the absence of anything. When you bring a light into a darkened room, you expose the darkness for its nothingness.

My teacher and her teacher carried an imagi-nary eraser with them at all times. Being ever vigi-lant of their consciousness it was not unusual to see her raise her eraser and

clean the blackboard of any negative word or thought she might encoun-ter. This discipline is essential to the control of conditions and situations in our life.

What have you been writing on your black-board? Life is reflecting it in your life. We must write different things and we can even use colored chalk, but be ever diligent to erase what is not part of your desire. My wife would hold up her eraser and swipe the air from side to side, and say, “Erase, Erase, Erase.” You can do the same.

God is Love and Loving You Right Now!

Significant Details

Helping guide the American Dream one

phone survey at a time The fate of the American experiment in Democracy is hanging by a

thin thread. Or, more accurately, a thin phone line.Actually, it’s my old-fashioned, telephone land line hooked to my old-

fashioned phone that is taking center stage in the battle against unbridled anarchy while shoring up American As We Know It, and, on occasion, the People’s Republic of California.

How can a simple land-line phone carry such weighty burdens? Two words: “telephone surveys,” which come almost exclusively over a land line like mine, since cell phone numbers are not easily tapped (unless it’s by Chinese hackers) by surveyors and marketers who want to measure opinions about everything from politics to life-styles. And since everything about America today is based solely on opinion surveys, it is an honor to guide the American Dream via phone surveys.

I take the responsibility to lead the nation via my opinions quite seriously, but that doesn’t mean I’m honest.

For example, when the survey is about “our energy future,” I say I’m a “very conservative Republican” who wants the entire country to run on wind power (tap those big gusts coming out of Washington, DC,) and geothermal energy (see DC, re: hot air). If that isn’t enough, seize the assets of all coal, nuclear and oil companies and use that money to give every citizen free solar panels or wind turbines.

For the next survey, I become a “very liberal Democrat” whose opinion about gun control is simple: “You need a good rest, a firm grip and squeeze the trigger, don’t jerk it.”

As a “conservative Republican,” I would prefer the nation’s foreign policy be based on “group hugs and sharing.” Plus, my conservative GOP idea for funding the military and the Pentagon: “Give 90 percent of the money to our schools so they can teach love, peace and tolerance, then we won’t need armies and navies.”

When I “strongly identify” with the Democratic Party, my biggest con-cern about “corporate tax breaks and Wall Street bailouts” is that they are seriously underfunded in comparison to food stamps and education, and we could fund additional corporate bailouts and tax breaks by cut-ting environmental programs, the Forest Service and National Parks.

The “radically conservative Republican” in me is all for some new taxes to expand every sector of the federal government. Those obscenely rich corporate executives, Wall Street leeches, land speculators and bank-ers should absolutely have their tax rate increased up to a “confiscatory” 80 percent of all income, with no deductions allowed.

On California issues, I have to be a Democrat or Liberal, since every-one knows the 15 Zip Codes full of Republicans and Conservatives in the state. Here is every California opinion survey in one fell swoop: “Do you want the Nanny State to guarantee a Constitutional right to take selfies in yoga pants, mandate less pollution and more marijuana, send bullies and mean people to Nebraska, subsidize reduced-price organic veggies and electric cars, give whales, dogs and cats the right to vote, make sure no one hurts your feelings, and regulates everything you can eat, touch, feel or see.” And the answer is always, “sure, dude.”

MAKE A DIFFERENCE. BECOME A VOLUNTEER TODAY!

ESIA one of region’s oldest non-profitsBy Jennifer K. CrittendenTimes Correspondent

The Eastern Sierra Interpretive Association is expanding its educational operations north and south as it has added several new federal public land agency visitor centers from the American River Range Station in Forresthill to the Manzanar National Historic Site near Independence.

One of the region’s oldest nonprofits, ESIA was created in 1970 by Inyo National Forest staff to assist the National Forests to provide educational programs about the Eastern Sierra’s unique landscape and enhance inter-pretation and management of public lands. Its mission is to educate and inspire, to encourage people to learn about the area and become effective stewards of its resources.

Today, its agency partner-ships include the Inyo National Forest, Humboldt-

Toiyabe National Forest, Tahoe National Forest, Devils Postpile National Monument, Manzanar National Historic Site and the Bureau of Land Management Bishop Field Office.

Important in its expansion of operations was the hiring of Jeff Gabriel as executive director. The Mammoth Times met up with Gabriel to discuss the history and future of the organization. His answers were edited for space.

MT: Although many of our readers have heard of ESIA, they don’t always under-stand how the nonprofit is funded. Can you enlighten us?

Gabriel: ESIA’s main objective is to provide Forest Service and National Park Service visitors with high quality interpretive, educa-tional and informational materials that will add to the visitors’ enjoyment and understanding of the natural, cultural, historic and recre-ational resources of the national forests and the national parks. The revenue generated from the sale of interpretive items in the

Forest Service and National Park visitor centers is returned to the respective Forest or Park to augment federally appropriated funds. ESIA generated nearly $1.9 million in revenue last year. It also accepts donations.

MT: Jeff, you are relatively new to the organization. Can you tell us something about your background?

Gabriel: My most recent job was the executive direc-tor of a program called STARBASE in Kansas. STARBASE is funded by the U.S. Department of Defense to ignite the interest of fourth-, fifth- and sixth-grad-ers in science, technology, engineering and math. The program had five locations and served nearly 5,000 stu-dents per year. Previously, I worked for various agricul-tural agencies and organiza-tions. My career started on Capitol Hill working as a leg-islative assistant and eventu-ally as the legislative direc-tor. I have a bachelor’s degree in wildlife biology and political science and a Master of Public Administration with a specialization in agricultur-al policy.

MT: How is the job at ESIA working out so far?

Gabriel: This is truly a dream job for me. It is a true honor to be working to better America’s natural, cultural and historical resources. I’m especially excited to provide support to the Tahoe National Forest, Devils Postpile National Monument and Manzanar National Historic Site, which were added in the last two years and increased the number of our visitor centers to 17. That growth is attributable to the many people who have worked for ESIA, most nota-bly those employees who seized on the chance to cre-ate an incredible organization like ESIA in 1970 after the President signed the law per-mitting nonprofit organiza-tions to assist National Forests.

MT: Any comments about the community?

Gabriel: The Bishop com-munity has been very kind to us, and we truly appreciate its hospitality and warmth. Since I was a little kid I have dreamt about living in the mountains. Sometimes it is hard to believe I do. My fami-

ly and I do a lot of hiking, backpacking, and mountain biking and enjoy sharing the area with our family and friends who are more famil-iar with a flatter landscape. As we say, “We aren’t in Kansas anymore.”

MT: Can you give us a sense of the kinds of pro-grams ESIA offers?

Gabriel: You bet. We offer educational seminars, inter-pretive walks and hikes, art-ist and author events, mov-ies, campfire and avalanche programs, our history confer-ence – all with the intention of educating and inspiring. We have several events for youths: the Eastern Sierra Outdoor Youth program when kids from 12 to 18 go on a six-day long backpack-ing trip and Winter Wildlands Alliance snow school school which teaches Mammoth Lakes and Bishop fifth-grad-ers about snow and the water cycle. Interpretive programs are so vital to educating both youth and adults. During all my years of working, I learned when people better understand the world in which they live, the more they appreciate the flora and

fauna.

MT: Why is ESIA neces-sary? Why do the USFS, NPS, and other Federal Public land agencies depend on organiza-tions like ESIA?

Gabriel: ESIA, along with over 400 nonprofit organiza-tions across the United States, help support all the federal public land agencies through interpretive, educa-tional and informational pro-grams. ESIA raises several million dollars without which services would be greatly reduced or non-existent. For the National Park Service, this partnership has existed for nearly 89 years; for the National Forests, it has been nearly 49 years.

MT: You are unveiling a new member donor program in 2019. What would you like potential donors to know?

Gabriel: With most of the ESIA retail sales revenue sup-porting administrative costs, your donation goes directly to programs and projects that directly support the National Forests, National Parks and Bureau of Land Management agencies ESIA is formally supporting.

Eastern Sierra Interpretive Association makes an impact

Two plays remain in Martin Luther King holiday weekend seriesBy Jennifer K. CrittendenTimes Correspondent

In celebration of their 20th season, Sierra Classic Theatre began staging the reading of four plays, one per day beg-gining Thursday. Two more plays remain to be presented tonight and Sunday. The two remaining plays include “Heisenberg,” by Simon Stephens, and “Ages of the Moon,” by Sam Shepard. Each play will be presented at the

Edison Theater in Mammoth. Each will be 70-80 minutes long with no intermission. A donation of $5 is recommend-ed.

“Heisenberg” tells the story of a middle-aged woman and older man who meet in a London train station and eventually travel to the U.S. to search for the woman’s miss-ing son. The Broadway pro-duction starred Mary-Louise Parker and Denis Arndt. The local production will star our celebrities Chuck Scatolini and Stacy Corliss on Saturday, at 7 p.m.

In “Ages of the Moon” by Sam Shepard, Ames, recently dumped by his wife, invites an old buddy to an isolated house for a pity party infused with bourbon and simmering

resentment. The men bicker and drink, and watch the approaching lunar eclipse, until a shotgun enters the scene. Jeff Frome and Kevin Worden will read on Sunday, at 4 p.m.

Sierra Classic Theatre notes on their website that their art-ists will frequently undertake a stage reading in order to evaluate a play for produc-tion. They have staged such informal events at various venues around town. Sometimes those plays that they love the best are unsuit-able for full production because of resources or the cast or the facilities, but they discovered that a staged read-ing can still do justice to a piece and provide great enjoy-ment to an audience. In order

to feature these particular modern plays, they decided to create this new event of four plays over four days. Each play has only two or three actors which intensifies the relationship between the char-acters under the close scruti-ny of the audience.

“This is something differ-ent for us,” said Allison McDonnell Page, the director of all four plays. “The sets are minimal, and there are only a few costumes. Casts are small, and the actors are generally four rehearsals in, so accents and lines aren’t solidified. But the material is so strong the plays really come alive. When the actors are in the moment, the audience will forget that

they’re holding a script. I’m hoping that the audience will feel a part of the process instead of just presented with the finished product. I think it will be more fun.” She is also looking for feedback. If the audience really likes some-thing, she will consider it for full production.

Page described “Heisenberg” as a PG13 oppo-sites-attract story in which they, and the audience, don’t know where the relationship is going.

After Sam Shepard died, she wanted to put on one of his plays but felt they might be too dark or moody for some theater goers. The staged reading gave her a

chance to test its reception and also work with Kevin Worden who taught drama in the Mammoth schools for many years. “He’s a trained, talented actor,” she said. “But he’s usually too busy for a full production.”

MLK weekend was chosen for the event to showcase local theatre when out-of-towners can attend. “As a build up to developing our new arts center and in cele-bration of bringing theatre to Mammoth for 20 years, we wanted to do something spe-cial,” said Page. By making it donation-only, she hopes to pack the house and open peo-ple’s eyes to the magic of long one-act plays.

Use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) was associated with an 18% increased risk of atrial fibrillation – an irregular, often rapid heart rate – in a study published in the British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology. Atrial fibrillation affects approximately 0.5% of the general population, but more than 6% of the elderly population.

By taking a high-cost drug with a low-fat meal – instead of on an empty stomach, as prescribed – prostate cancer patients could decrease their daily dose, prevent digestive issues and cut costs by 75 percent, according to a new study in the March 28, 2018, issue of the Journal of Clinical Oncology (JCO). Abiraterone acetate, marketed as Zytiga®, is the standard medicine used to treat metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. Patients taking Zytiga are told to take four of the 250 milligram pills first thing in the morning. Then, having gone without food overnight, they must wait at least one more hour before eating breakfast.

New research published in PLOS ONE suggests higher levels of vitamin D are associated with decreasing risk of breast cancer.

We are now compounding “all natural estrogen hormone replacement” as prescribed by your physicians.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has granted approval to the combination of two immunotherapy drugs, ipilimumab and nivolumab, for the treatment of metastatic kidney cancer. The results of the large, international clinical trial leading to the approval were just published in the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine and showed a significantly higher response rate and improved survival than the standard therapy in patients with intermediate and highly aggressive kidney cancers.

By the Eastern California Museum

Prospectors located min-ing claims along Pine Creek high up in the rugged Sierra Nevada west of Bishop in 1895, but the gold and sil-ver content of the assayed rock proved disappointing. The ground lay dormant until 1916, when Billie Vaughn and Arch Beauregard discovered out-crops with molybdenum and the tungsten-bearing mineral scheelite while prospecting near the head-waters of Pine Creek. Vaughn and Beauregard filed on claims situated at an elevation of 11,300 feet above sea level, and with two other partners extended the seven-mile-long trail from Round Valley for another three miles. Pack mules transported equip-ment and supplies up the steep 3,000-foot slope, including a concentrating table that had to be cut up into sections.

The claims were worked during and shortly after World War I to produce scheelite concentrates, which were packed down the trail on mule back. Tungsten extracted from the scheelite was used to make durable steel alloys, and thus was in high demand during wartime. Because of this demand, tungsten increased in value fivefold from that of the pre-war years. The partners soon realized that they did not have the financial means to develop the deposit on a large enough scale to make mining profit-able, and by January 1918 had struck a deal with a new partner who obtained the needed capital. New trails and roads were built, power lines and pipelines were constructed, and mine timbers were cut using an electric-powered sawmill that was packed in on mules. Upon completion of the Rock Creek wagon road, which used part of the old Sherwin toll road, machin-ery for the mines and a mill was transported from the railroad station at Laws, a distance of 50 miles by the new wagon road. The mill went into operation in December 1918 but was forced to close two months later due to plummeting tungsten prices brought on by the end of WWI.

The Natural Soda Products Company pur-chased the Pine Creek mine in 1922 and then reorga-nized as the Tungsten Products Company. Tungsten prices had risen somewhat since the 1919 crash, and the company moved ahead with improve-ments. In 1924, an adit was driven that shortened the distance from the mine to the mill, improving winter operations. Ore was hauled to the surface by mules pulling six-car trains and then transported to the mill via rail tram. The Rock Creek road was abandoned due to the difficulty of

keeping it open during win-ter, so most supplies were hauled to the mine by pack mules via the Pine Creek trail. The concentrates car-ried down the trail on mule back were transported by road to the railroad station at Laws. Although problems due to weather conditions persisted, optimism ran high; unfortunately, by 1928 the mine workings and mill were idle once again due to events related to the 1927 Watterson Bank failure.

The Pine Creek mine lay dormant until 1936, at which time the U.S. Vanadium Corporation acquired the property and began developing it into a world-class producer of tungsten. Transportation remained a challenge due the remote location and harsh winter conditions. Horses and mules continued to be used to pack materials and supplies into the early 1940s. George Brown, a Paiute Indian from Round Valley, was foremost among the packers of this era, car-rying everything from drill rods and power poles to timbers, cable and bull wheels for construction of a 2.5-mile-long tramway to the Tungstar Mine, situated at an elevation of 12,000 feet above sea level on the east face of Mt. Tom. According to some accounts, construction of the tramway was the last big commercial/industrial packing job in the Eastern Sierra. Completed in December 1941, this tram was probably the last all-wood construction project of its kind in the United States. The towers were built high enough for tram buckets to clear the large amounts of snow that accu-mulated in the winter. In addition to carrying ore, the tram was used to bring in supplies for snowbound employees and transport injured workers out of the mine.

After completion of the road over 11,000-foot Morgan Pass in 1939 and the tramway in 1941, the need for pack mules dimin-ished. Heavy duty Lynn half-trucks began making regular trips over the arduous Morgan Creek Road. When the road was choked with snow, bulldozers were used to pull sleds laden with sup-plies. During big snow-storms, the mine was cut off from the outside world for weeks at a time. At such times, Tex Cushion and his dog team made numerous trips to deliver mail and supplies and to respond to medical emergencies, some-times during raging bliz-zards.

In the years leading up to and during World War II, tungsten once again gained strategic importance. By 1942, the mine had become the largest producer of tungsten in the country. The Pine Creek tungsten mine was a major contributor to the economy of the Eastern Sierra for nearly 54 years before being mothballed in

2001 due to the availability of low-cost imports from China.

BORN THIS WEEK: Your ability to reach out to those in need of spiritual comfort makes you a much-revered, much-loved person in your community.

Editor’s Note: Annie Lane is off this week. The follow-ing column was originally published in October 2016.

Dear Annie: The other day, my teenage daughter came to me because her good friend is being bullied on social media. Her friend is a sweetheart, a pretty quiet kid but very polite. So needless to say, I was out-raged when my daughter showed me the things that classmates were saying to this girl. I was appalled that other teens could be so cruel.

It’s easy for me to say, “Just ignore them.” But these comments are mean and nasty: “Why do you exist?” “You’re fat and ugly,” etc. I would be both-ered if someone wrote those things to me, and I’m a full-grown adult. I can’t imagine reading such hate-ful comments as an impres-sionable teen.

I don’t understand why others feel it’s OK to post such mean things on social media when they wouldn’t say it to them in person. I see it all over the internet, too – not just with kids. I have seen acquaintances of mine get into huge fights on Facebook. I don’t get where this aggression comes from.

As a parent, what should I do? Do I tell the friend’s mother? Should I worry about this happening to my own daughter and limit her social media use?

– From a Concerned Mom

Dear Concerned: “Why are people so mean on the internet?” It’s one of the great questions of our time. I think it’s easy for people to forget about the real

human on the receiving end of their nasty remarks. Anonymity brings out the worst in people, and this latest generation of kids is especially connected to technology and especially vulnerable to all its dark sides.

You should tell the friend’s mother that her daughter is being harassed so she can intervene and ensure her daughter doesn’t spend too much time online, exposed to that neg-ativity. Her mother might also contact the parents of the kids doing the harass-ing.

On the issue of teens and cyberbullying in gen-eral: Parents, pay close attention to what your kids do online. If your child is harassing another child on the internet, you should know about it, and you should put an end to it – whether by revoking your kid’s devices or closely monitoring usage.

Kids should have no expectation of privacy when it comes to what they do on their phones and computers. You should make that clear from the start rather than secretly snoop through unsuspect-ing kids’ messages after the fact.

Unfortunately, cyberbul-lying can literally be a mat-ter of life and death, so take it seriously. Visit StopBullying.gov for more information.

Dear Annie: I would like to comment on the letter from “Shear Terror,” the man whose wife wants to cut her hair. I concur with your answer; it’s her hair, and it is only hair. When I met my husband, my hair reached below my waist. We started dating a year later, and as our relation-ship turned serious, he joked that he wouldn’t marry me if I cut my hair. We spent two months trav-eling in Europe after col-lege graduation, and I quickly discovered what an inconvenience long hair was. That inconvenience and starting a new chapter in life, graduate school, helped me decide to chop off all the hair. The deci-sion was not taken lightly, for some of my identity was wrapped up in that hair. Several months later, we did get married. That was over 41 years ago. I have had a variety of hair-styles throughout our mar-riage but never grew it back long again. Obviously, the hair did not really matter very much to our relation-ship, and I would hope the same for “Shear Terror.” (And if it does, then they have bigger issues.)

(Hiked on Dec. 24, 2018)

It wasn’t planned well in advance, but thanks to an extra day off on Christmas Eve, my son Kevin made an unexpected trip to Bishop to spend time with my side of the family, and of course go for a hike with me. He wanted to buy his fiancé Kimberly a Mammoth hood-ie from McCoy’s for Christmas, so that meant a Christmas Eve drive up U.S. Highway 395, and also some kind of hiking in the snow somewhere. What better gift could a dad ask for than seeing his son on Christmas!

On December 23rd, after Kevin and his dog Vedder arrived from Orange County, we spent a few wonderful hours wandering and exploring in the

Volcanic Tablelands; climb-ing boulders, following game trails and getting caught up on life. We had a great time out there, but on Christmas Eve we wanted some snow, and Mammoth Lakes would satisfy us com-pletely.

It was quite cold when we arrived at The Village in Mammoth the next day, lucky to get a parking spot next to the stage near the statue of Dave McCoy. We spent about a half hour shopping for Kimberly, with my son eventually choosing a classic style blue Mammoth hoodie. The per-fect gift! It was too cold for sightseeing at The Village, so we made a quick escape and left the crowd behind, parking off Sherwin Creek Road near the Mammoth Rock Trail.

There were no other cars in the designated parking lot, just a lot of mud and snow, as well as a howling wind. We didn’t think twice about going for a short hike, and within a few min-utes our boots (and Vedder’s paws) were mak-

ing fresh tracks in the vir-gin snow. To say we were bundled up would be an understatement, only our noses were exposed, and let me tell you, we could feel it. But we didn’t care, since we were having so much fun together, the weather wasn’t a hindrance whatso-ever.

At first, the depth of the snow was only 4 to 6 inch-es, but as we continued up and over two small hills, it started getting deeper and deeper, nearing a foot at our chosen turnaround spot. It wasn’t a long dis-cussion between Kevin and I, yet a mutual decision to head back down and drive to another hiking spot, preferably lower in eleva-tion. Boom, I had the per-fect spot in mind for a short hike: Convict Lake.

After a short drive from Mammoth on U.S. Highway 395, we were turning right and making the two mile drive to the north shore of Convict Lake. There wasn’t a whole lot of snow on the ground, but the wind felt like it was blowing at hurri-cane speeds, coming down from Convict Canyon. Regardless of the condi-tions, my son, Vedder and myself hit the trail, starting on the snow-free west side.

Did I mention it was windy and cold? Although it really didn’t matter, because the sight of a wind-blown Convict Lake, clouds hovering near the summit of Mount Morrison, and the fact that we all were togeth-er at that particular moment, made everything just perfect. The closer we got to the backside of the

lake, and the boardwalk over Convict Creek, the more snow began to appear on the trail. It wasn’t bad though, just a couple of inches altogether, which made for enjoyable hiking.

It was a total blast spending Christmas with my son, especially being outside and going for a cou-ple of hikes; these are the moments that are the most special. Hopefully someday he’ll decide to move to the Eastern Sierra and make memories on a daily basis. Wishful thinking.
