    Healing Paws

    By Ted Grussing

    … both today and the day I took this last October. The photo is of Kendrick Peak after a nice snow storm, and the clouds shrouding it were leaving more behind.

    After all the recent storms I am anxious to get back up on the plateau and perhaps some day this week it will work out. They have resumed pile/slash burns so will hope for a clear sky day with no smoke ruining the views and polluting the air and our lungs. About a year ago the EPA concluded a study showing that if the piles are covered with plastic for a period of time, the piles dry out and burn hot and clean. I heard from the USFS that it is work to cover the piles, deer like to eat the plastic and a few other reasons why they won’t do it … so they continue to burn wet piles which put hundreds of tons of particulates and smoke into the air … Human health is not a factor in their burning decisions nor tourism and other factors. They are doing more mechanical thinning and issuing logging contracts so that is a very good thing too. A lot of the issues are monetary and fire is the cheapest if human health is not a factor … Congress keeps mandating more acreage to be burnt each year. Perhaps some day human health and the costs thereof will be factored into the equation and then some changes will be made. Also helpful to remember that USFS personnel live in the area too and are equally affected.

    At the current rate I am getting photos processed and sized, I will have all the photos for the book finished by the end of the week … then the order of placement decided and the writing begins. So pleased with InDesign and the familiar work flow.

    A new week is underway and time to put a wrap on this day … espresso in not that many hours and then a beautiful day will be underway … a busy day and week with friends to see and work to do. Have a most excellent day and smile.

    Cheers

    Sleep sweetly now that the gates of the crimson night are closed,
    and leave tomorrow’s struggle for tomorrow;
    The earth is peaceful, only the stars and still moon are abroad, and they wage no war.

    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.
