As a long-time resident, I remember the driftwood sculptures along the freeway near Eureka. The powers at hand decided they didn't like them, so they used the excuse that it was damaging to the wetlands to have them removed. I support the designation of 101 from Eureka to the Oregon border proposed by Caltrans. A group billboard at both ends of the bay would be a good compromise. I could never have imagined myself sitting in a little room in the Bay Area at 1 a.m. reading the Journal.
Life changes too quickly sometimes, and it's all the more evident down here.
I take solace in being able to open my laptop anywhere and read the latest news of Humboldt. Thank you for keeping us in touch. I promise to make lots of money and bring it all back home.
