    Hi there,

    Does anyone have a ping pong table and associated gear they would like to pass on? We would be happy to buy for a reasonable price.

    Before hauling one up here we thought we’d check with the community. We are on Shoshone.

    Thanks!
    Addy & Dan

    fyi, Golden State Cellular has been purchased by Verizon so there is no sort of contractual issue that would arise.
    I suspect that the resources available in our local cell towers have been overwhelmed due to the huge increase in population this weekend. The mere indication of signal strength does not mean that the tower has adequate resources to handle all the calls coming in and going out. Since text messaging requires far less resources and can be delayed and/or repeated they are more likely to get through.

    Welcome to Big Trees Village. Cellular coverage is spotty at best – regardless of what Verizon claims. A friend with an Iphone with Verizon service has been able to make and receive calls but with poor quality reception and transmission. My antique(?) Samsung phone is useless at my place even though Verizon shows me within the coverage area. That is why I keep my land line – at about $30/month to make about 4-5 calls per year. I worry that if I ever cancel the land line, that will be when I fall off the roof and break my neck, and the wife will have to go looking for a phone to get someone to cart my broken body away.

    Has anyone been experiencing problems making cell phone calls recently (on Verizon) when you have a good connection, like in Arnold? We can receive calls and texts and get data no problem, but cannot call out. At first I thought it was just my phone but since we have such a weak signal in btv, I didn’t try calling much and didn’t want to spend the typical hours on the phone with Verizon.

    Now, I find no one in our family can call out so I finally contacted tech support. They bad no idea what the issue is and no promise on when they can resolve. I suspect its at least partly an issue with golden state cellular or their interaction with Verizon, but who knows. If there are others with the problem, it might help getting resolution.

    We used A-1 Tree service to remove several trees. You have probably passed them on the north side of Hwy 4 near Angels Camp. They were quick, professional, clean, and reasonably priced. 209-736-6786 or http://a-1treeserviceinc.com/

    OK, it’s the big weekend! Let’s all have fun. Let’s all be good neighbors. Let’s all be on the lookout for any fireworks. Even possession is not legal in our fire district.

    I found that once we removed some old stumps in the yard it eliminated a large breading area for those very large flying carpenter ants. It seems like there is always one or two days where the eggs hatch inside the stumps and they start swarming out. Adam Snider Stump Grinding gives free estimates. 209 768-1962

    I finally got the video to play with Safari for Windows. Here it is in an AVI format.

    The coyote looks pretty tame as he strolls across your driveway!

    I can probably view it with my Windows desktop computer. I’ve been using my iPad lately.

    If you can’t view the video, drag the .mp4 video file to your desktop then open it up with the video viewer you use on your computer

    Can you post the video on YouTube so everyone can watch it?
