    Healing Paws

    By Ted Grussing

    … the beast … both are in this photo I shot this morning looking WNW from a point over the Verde Valley near the gap between Black Mountain on the left and Casner mountain on the right. Through the gap you are looking into Sycamore Canyon. Past the right side of the photograph, Sycamore Canyon cuts left to the west and this fire appears to be near the end of it. This is Kaibab Forest and it is this fire which buried Sedona and The Village in smoke and ash yesterday. This afternoon as the winds shifted to the WSW the smoke once again found its way towards us and as it sailed overhead there was a lot of precipitation again obliterating the view of Mingus Mountain when looking to the SW. At least the Kaibab forest was able to get a lot of the smoke up and out of its forest … The Coconino and other forests down wind are the lucky recipients of it.

    I’m working on some more ideas on how we can combat this assault on our health and quality of life. Not sure if much good comes from complaining directly to the forest service as they get their marching orders from Washington. I’m thinking the environmental groups that helped put this thing together and I’m wide open to other ideas any of you have. Human health is a legitimate factor as are the economic factors. So any ideas are welcome!

    I am currently more than 200 emails behind and hope to catch up towards the end of the week.

    Great day of flying, getting an annual inspection completed of the motorglider and a fun evening with Mike and his friend who flew in this morning to do the job.

    Again, your suggestions are solicited … perhaps an online petition? Or a direct email campaign to those responsible for policy making on this and similar issues?

    Have a beautiful day … hump day and cruising into the end of the week … again.

    Smile and enjoy life … always our choice.

    Ted

    City Council Weighs ATV Ban Ordinance Proposal
    By Tommy Acosta
    The Sedona City Council at its May 23, 2023 meeting took no action on a proposed ordinance that would ban all off-road vehicles from being driven on state-owned public roads or streets owned by the city. The ordinance, spearheaded by Sedona Mayor Scott Jablow on the premise that such vehicles pose a risk to the health, safety and welfare of the community, would impose heavy fines to anyone driving the ATVs or OHVs on city streets, including S.R. 179 and S.R. 89A. ATV rental companies have admitted that such vehicles are not intended or designed to be driven on paved roads, yet, in Arizona, they are allowed to do so under Arizona Revised Statute 28-1174 (4B). Opponents against the ordinance argued at the meeting that if adopted the ban would cripple the ATV rental industry in Sedona and cause much hardship to the owners and employees, as it would effectively, as written, destroy their livelihood.
