Our friends up the way at Village Church participated in the Incline September 25th cleanup. There were 14 participants out of the 30 that signed up. We found broken sleds, beer cans, capri suns and other waste items on the left side of Mt. Rose Hwy. Thank you to all who participated that day as well as those who make it a personal daily dedication. #KeepTahoeBlue

PINE NUTS
Erma Bombeck, Julia Childs, Will Rogers & Mark Twain Together

Later this month I have the honor of participating in a Chautauqua down in Boulder City, Nevada as Mark Twain alongside Erma Bombeck, Julia Childs and Will Rogers. What a treat, for they are a few of my heroes…
I like to quote Erma when delivering a commencement address, “Never confuse fame with greatness, fame is Madonna, greatness Helen Keller.” Erma’s lighthearted column ran in 900 newspapers, and in 1996 she published the best selling book, The Grass is Always Greener Over the Septic Tank.

We're proud to be a sponsor of the upcoming BARKTOBERFEST festival at Pet Network here in Incline Village, featuring craft beer, live music, lawn games and of course FOOD by yours truly.

30 volunteers picked up 6 yards (a dumpster) worth of litter from the Mount Rose Meadows to central Incline and Memorial Point. Our most common items found were sled pieces and beer cans. Our most unusual item was a set of crutches found in the bushes at Mt. Rose Meadows. Thankfully volunteers reported that all sites were generally clean and that they had to search to find litter. We hope to see you at our next Tahoe Blue Crew Clean Up.

FLU VACCINES AVAILABLE
The North Lake Tahoe Fire Protection District (NLTFPD) will be offering flu vaccinations to individuals over the age of 8 beginning September 28, 2021, for as long as supplies last. Vaccines administered by NLTFPD will be offered at the Fire District’s main station located at 875 Tanager Street. Walk-ins are welcome. We ask that visitors please wear a face covering to receive a flu vaccination. Vaccines will not be available at the Crystal Bay or Mount Rose Stations. Each vaccine is $40.00, payable by cash, check or credit card. Please note, we do not take insurance. If you are a Medicare patient, consider visiting your primary healthcare provider, Incline Village Community Hospital, Village Pharmacy or Raley’s pharmacy as those locations accept insurance.
For your convenience, Fire District personnel are available to visit homes or businesses by appointment. There is no additional charge for this service; however, the $40.00 vaccine fee still applies. To make an appointment, please call 775-831-0351, ext. 0. Please note that the vaccines are only for individuals 8 years of age and older; we recommend younger children be taken to their pediatrician.

"Went here for the very 1st time last night. The staff were very friendly, and the people at the bar were amazing too! It was so enjoyable to sit and chat while waiting for the food. We ordered the specialties listed on their website, ahi salad- hands down fabulous! The ahi was perfectly cooked, the seaweed was refreshing and the Wasabi dressing puts the cherry right on top! We also ordered their South shore burger with tater tots. the burger was cooked to perfection and their tots are delicious with their ranch!
My daughter ordered the Tahoe Beef Dipper with Tater Tots and she loved it, we threw some cheese on it and made it even tastier, as if that were possible!

They remember your name and have a good time, just found out from Ryan the live music is back on Friday's!!! Date night? I say "oh yeah!"" - 5 Star Yelp Review
