Good Morning. It’s Saturday, June 25, 2022
It’s been a few years since I’ve written anything about the Inavale Horse Trials, which got started yesterday and will continue today and tomorrow. I’ll have a photographer out there on Sunday and I’m planning to post a feature story with a gallery early next week. Thursday night’s wildfire preparedness town hall was informative with a great panel of people from various agencies. Organized by the city, I think it was a great event to have in the community.
Thanks for reading!
