The rafters were rattling as 45 students and their family and friends gathered for the Board Break-A-Thon at LightSpeed Martial Arts Academy in Scotts Valley last week.

The first phase of erecting proper sports facilities for Scotts Valley High School is underway.

A friend of mine who attended Stanford University told me that the next time I was on the campus I should check out the famous Angel of Grief marble statue.

Wow, I thought the other day as I closed the Market’s door behind me; what a nice group of guys; knowledgeable, fun loving, and handsome. What a great place to shop and the sausage, meat, and poultry selections are terrific, not to mention the Leaf Lard that is available for my baking and fried chicken that I depend upon.
