I ended up dropping them off at the Arnold Firehouse and they were well received.

An internet search verified that there are scorpions in Calaveras County. The report said the sting of a scorpion is about like a bee sting. Not a problem unless a person has a serious allergy.

The bite of a scorpion is not a problem. The sting is a different matter. This was on one of my biology class in college. I missed it!

Was cleaning upside wood pieces my lot and look what I found! It was about 2 inches long and I don’t know enough about scorpions to know if this one would have hurt or not. First time seeing one up here.

This bag was used only once that I know of and is in brand new condition. It’s padded and insulated and is a 166, suitable to airline travel.
I will be coming up tomorrow to BTV and will have it with me if anyone is interested. Price is $50.00

DOES ANYONE KNOW OF A PERSON THAT WILL DO WORK ON A SUSPENSION BRIDGE?

What in the world is taking so long to get the site up to “snuff”.
Jeez…..

Thanks for both suggestions, I will check out both places next time I am up.

I recognize those vests!! The fire station next to Ace Hardware in Arnold usually has a rack outside with vests that I’m pretty sure are free. That might be a place to go.

You might want to drop them off at the shelter at the Snowshoe Springs pond with a sign that say’s “FREE”.

A few years ago someone in BTV gave us a couple of life vests for free. the grandkids have now outgrown them so I thought I would pay this forward. They are two small child ones in good shape.

I will be here today, leaving tomorrow morning if anyone is interested.

Sweet!!! After 24+ years of nothing, this is great news! Thanks for the info!!! And yes, maybe this means we don’t need that overpriced AT&T!!!

There is a new Verizon tower by the water tanks on Bigfoot Circle.

[carlshome]

I live at the very lowest point of Big Trees near the intersection of the end of Sierra Parkway and Indian Rock. We have NEVER had any cell signal. Then three weeks ago my cell phone beeps and I had text messages. Upon a closer look I had one bar of Verizon LTE. WHAT??? I have had coverage up there for several weeks now after 18 years of nada. Email, internet, texts, everything working very well. I can only assume Verizon upgraded a tower, or installed a new one. Whatever they did, it is a nice improvement. If the signal is consistent and reliable throughout next winter I’m considering getting rid of my very expensive ATT land line.

[AZbunch]

Has Verizon updated any of its cell towers, or something similar? When I arrived last Friday I realized I had a very strong 4G signal, which wasn’t the case a month ago at my last visit. Have never had a signal until this weekend….did I miss something? It was WONDERFUL to have the use of my cell phone!!! And the ability to use it as a mobile hotspot for my tablet since I don’t have internet…life was good this weekend!! Sure hope it wasn’t a fluke.
