Local couple on Grand Princess wait out quarantine n Cruise passengers ordered
to keep 6 feet of separation Dawn Hodson Staff writer
Several weeks ago Cameron Park residents Bob Jerauld and wife Beverly were off to Hawaii aboard the Grand Princess cruise ship for what they thought would be a luxury voyage. Instead it turned into a close encounter with the coronavirus that has now ended in quarantine at Travis Air Force Base. A trip Bob described as wonderful as the ship traveled to all the Hawaiian Islands, they were scheduled to make a quick stop in Ensenada, Mexico, before heading back to San Francisco. All was going according to plan when
the ship was stopped midway across the Pacific and it was announced there was a possibility the ship may have picked up the coronavirus (COVID-19). So instead of Mexico, the ship headed for San Francisco. Bob said the same ship had previously made a one-week trip down to Mexico and it is suspected that’s where a passenger on the cruise picked up coronavirus. That passenger turned out to be the Placer County resident who later died. Since some of the passengers on the Hawaii trip had previously been on the cruise to Mexico and never left the ship, the concern was that they may have been exposed to the coronavirus as well. In the meantime, quarantine procedures were implemented. Bob said everyone was told to wear a mask when leaving their n

Don J. Dedinas, 52, of Foothill Farms was killed in Placerville March 4 when he was struck by a truck on Missouri Flat Road. Investigators suspect the man may have been rolling a car tire in a traffic lane of the roadway. The incident occurred at about 7:40 p.m. near Perks Court, just south of Highway 50. Pollock Pines resident Maria Caceres, 73, driving a 2007 Mitsubishi Raider, was traveling north on Missouri Flat and about to merge onto the eastbound Highway 50 onramp when her pickup truck “came upon a pedestrian in the middle of the road,” according to a news release from the Placerville office of the California Highway Patrol. The driver hit the pedestrian head-on, causing fatal injuries. Caceres was unharmed. CHP officers determined that Caceres was not under the influence of drugs or alcohol. The investigation is ongoing. Authorities are looking into whether drug or alcohol impairment of the pedestrian were a factor in the incident.

Escaped control burn spreads to cabin on Grizzly Flat Road Democrat staff
July 6, 1958-Feb. 6, 2020
Rudolph (Rudy) Carrillo, age 61, beloved and cherished husband of Mary Lou, passed away on Feb. 6, 2020, from nephrotic syndrome, minimal change disease. Rudy was born in Auburn, Calif., and was the youngest of 12 children. He was a 1976 graduate of Roseville High School. Rudy and Mary Lou (Morris) were married in 1981, blessed with a daughter, Amanda, in 1988 and a grandson, Atticus, in 2014. Rudy worked for Texaco Refinery in Wilmington, Calif., before moving back up north to God’s country in 1996. He worked for AmPac Fine Chemicals in Rancho Cordova for over 22 years as a senior tech operator. He was a proud Mother Lode Lion and was awarded the “Melvin Jones Award” for his volunteer work with the Lions. He loved his family, fishing, working in the garden, barbecuing on his big green egg, lowrider cars, old school music, NASCAR and the Oakland Raiders. Rudy is survived by his wife of 39 years, beloved daughter, grandson and mother-in-law Ruth Ann Morris along with four brothers, five sisters and many, many nieces, nephews and friends. He was preceded in death by his parents Joe and Annie (Corral) Carrillo, an older brother and sister. Services will be held March 21, 2020, at 1 p.m. at Cold Springs Church in Placerville with a reception immediately following in the church’s fellowship hall. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to an organization that is near and dear to your heart. Or to any children’s organization.

The El Dorado County Fire Protection District recently acquired a 2002 fire engine at a bargain from the city of San Diego. The rig will be first-out on calls to Station 19.
County fire gets bargain on lightly used engine Democrat staff The El Dorado County Fire Protection District got a hot deal on a used fire engine out of San Diego that will be added to Pleasant Valley Fire Station 19’s fleet. The 2002 Weststates Hendrickson Mobile Equipment type 1 fire apparatus was purchased through a partnership with the state Office of Emergency Services, according to fire district officials. It was last used by the city of San Diego for responses to OES incidents. After San Diego replaced the lightly used, 20-year-old engine (only 39,000
miles on it), El Dorado County was allowed to purchase it for $40,000. The final cost came in under $60,000 after the rig was outfitted with additional equipment and a paint job to match the district’s other vehicles. New fire engines are priced from $500,000 to $600,000. The new (to the district) engine will be used as a first-out piece of equipment, replacing Station 19’s Engine 19. District Fire Chief Tim Cordero said the old Engine 19 will change out a backup engine and the old backup engine will go to auction/ surplus.

California Matters
Finally, a school data system is emerging
C
alifornia has a very fragmented approach to education — a collection of institutional silos that only occasionally communicate with each other and often are more competitive than cooperative. That fragmentation Dan Walters is very visible in the perpetual conflicts between traditional K-12 schools and parentdirected charter schools and in the battles among the three systems of public higher education over academic turf. Disunity’s victims are students seeking educations to prepare them for careers and places in society, who struggle to know what high school classes they must take to apply for college or which community college courses are transferable to four-year institutions. One aspect of fragmentation is that California has been a laggard in collecting meaningful information about how well its educational systems are functioning. It’s one of the very few states that lacks what’s called a “longitudinal data system” to track students from pre-kindergarten through high school and college and into the workforce. “Over the past decade the state has invested billions of dollars to improve its public education systems, including the creation of multiple new programs to streamline the educational pipeline so students can better navigate the path from preschool to the workforce,” a 2018 report by the Public Policy Institute of California points out. “During this time, many institutions have seen steady improvements in educational outcomes, such as persistence and graduation rates. But insufficient information about how students fare during key transition points makes it difficult to assess which programs and interventions have been most effective, which are not worth the investment, and what we could do to improve them. Although some institutions share data across sectors for research or practical purposes, these connections are mostly infrequent, inefficient, incomplete or ad hoc.” The education establishment has not pressed for a central data system, apparently fearing that it could, as PPIC suggests, reveal which institutions and programs are “not worth the investment” and thus invite intervention or even elimination. Former Gov. Jerry Brown was adamantly opposed, perhaps because more data might reveal the flaws in one of his central claims to achievement, the Local Control Funding Formula, which spends billions of dollars to raise the academic performance of poor and English-learner students but so far appears to have had little impact.

Letters to the Editor Thank you, voters EDITOR: would like to thank everyone who helped on my recent campaign to be the new supervisor for District 3. These people include the people who made the signs, put them up and will make sure they are all taken down. Thanks go to the people who allowed me to have signs on their property and especially to the 4,802 people who gave me their vote with confidence and trust that I would work diligently and reach decisions with common sense and care for all the people of El Dorado County. We have many serious problems to face in the near future. We must hold our elected officials accountable for all their decisions affecting all of us. They do not represent special interests — which has been the “status quo” for many years. They represent us at our pleasure and are subject to recall at any time. BRIAN DeBERRY Placerville
I
Throw the dog a bone EDITOR: can’t really complain; I am pretty well taken care of. I eat well and I am not expected to do much other than what I am told and when I am told to do it. It can be a bit confusing, though, having someone else in complete control of every aspect of your life, monitoring almost every move you make. The lack of freedom is a trade-off for being given all I have or need and I don’t have a voice nor am I really expected to work for anything. My responsibilities and liberties are limited since I’m only expected to think and act in accordance with somebody else’s wishes. I’m sure it’s not all that bad because I’ve heard through the grapevine there are others like me behind bars for doing absolutely nothing wrong and some who even disappear, never to be heard from again. So I just take it easy and take what comes and try not to bother those in charge. Keep them happy, don’t make them mad, do what I’m told and, for God’s sake, don’t ever do anything to upset this fragile balance. The authorities in control do have the absolute last word on the subject and there’s no getting around it. If need be, they can quickly call for more help and easily subdue me or, worse, I might disappear.
I
Buried deep down inside me is a recurring dream or thought, an instinct maybe, of being free, being able to act on my own accord and live my life the way I see fit — without somebody else in control. My limited freedom, though, is all I can currently hope for and without many rights of my own I’m totally at the mercy of the powers that be. Their restrictions and rules are set forth to be obeyed at all times and, right or wrong, they are the supreme masters. These laws/regulations are to be followed without question and only then will the free gifts keep coming and I be allowed to exist. Now, if you don’t mind, I’ve spoken long enough and have to get back to work. I’ve just been fed and need to go lie by the door and bark if somebody comes. If this was starting to sound like something else before the bark gave it away, consider this: It very well could be. All you have to do is roll over and ignore the ongoing assault on our God-given rights and personal freedoms. If all one wants is to be fed and given free stuff and told what to do, then they have just become a pet. A lesser being that needs to be controlled by those powers that be. You know, the ones who think they know more than you. The ones who want complete control over us because they think they know best how we should live, act or think. The ones who favor themselves as elitists and toss us the scraps. Well, I’m not a canine, nor do I wish to be treated like one. I have a dog, a welcome addition to our family, and she’s treated quite well — better than those in power treat us. Someday soon those guys are going to suffer from a vicious bite. Bark!

T
riskaidekaphobia is the fear and avoidance of the number 13; fear of Friday the 13th. I see you, the one avoiding black cats, walking around ladders, throwing salt over your left shoulder, looking for four-leaf clovers WEndy and attaching a rabbit’s foot key chain to your backpack. Or maybe you aren’t. It might depend on your age. If you’re born after 1985 you may not do any of those things because you don’t know about them and you’d never attach a dead animal’s foot to anything you own because that would be … gross. Millennials, it is said, focus more on actions that bring luck rather than avoidance of bad luck. So across the
generations we knock on wood (the most popular superstition in America), pick up pennies, wish upon a star and cross our fingers. Older generations avoid the number 13, believe bad luck comes in threes and avoid ladders. Few people are comfortable Schultz with the number “666,” but most of us believe in beginner’s luck and think of seven as a lucky number. Except if you are Chinese, in which case eight is the fortunate number. I like both seven and eight but mostly because eight looks like a snowman. Some people believe luck is what you make on your own; others believe that it’s evidence of something beyond ourselves. According to “The Luck Factor: Changing Your Luck,

Changing Your Life” by Dr. Richard Wiseman, you can change your luck using eight practical techniques: being mindful (pay attention), being proactive (make things happen), taking advantage of opportunities, using insight, being flexible, being optimistic, thinking outside the box and being resilient. I don’t know if those eight techniques will help you to have more luck but all of them are good ideas for living your life. I would add a ninth technique: have a sense of humor. Without a sense of humor the world can be a dark and threatening place and people who feel threatened are generally not lucky. Or maybe they are but they don’t recognize it. In addition, Wiseman proposes four principles to help you increase your luck — a sort of CliffsNotes version for those who don’t want to try to remember all eight techniques: Keep trying new things to maximize

your opportunities, listen to your hunches, expect good luck and turn bad luck into good by looking at the big picture instead of brooding over the bad things. So applying Dr. Wiseman’s principles to Friday the 13th I would suppose, first of all, you expect that your luck will be good today instead of bad and if something awful happens first thing in the morning you don’t let it color your entire day. You could look for whatever silver lining you can get out of the situation. Simply by doing these things you might already have tried something new and if your hunch says “stay away from the ladder and that black cat” and “eat more chocolate,” then heed your own insight. Any day with “eat more chocolate” is already a lucky day in my view. Wendy Schultz is an author and Mountain Democrat correspondent.

inauguration last year Newsom began pressing for a centralized data system and one of the budget “trailer bills” he later signed creates what he calls a “Cradle to Career Data System” and appropriates $10 million to get it going. The legislation and the launching of the project are something of a departure for PPIC, which has conducted vigorous research into numerous public policy issues for several decades, but has generally shied away from advocacy or direct participation. PPIC not only has beaten the drums for a data system but is participating in its design, creating a California Education Data Collaborative to help a “workgroup” the legislation creates to, as PPIC

and wait days before I could see a public record. I pointed out to all three employees that, according to Publics Records Act section 6253 (a), “Public records are open to inspection during office hours.” I asked each of them if I were making my request during office hours and they all said yes. The clerk of the board denied my request to inspect a public record by citing section 6253 (c). This section states that the agency is allowed 10 days to make copies of public records. I pointed out multiple times that I didn’t want copies. I wanted to inspect the public record there in the office. I read Publics Records Act section 6253 (a) several times to the clerk of the board and she presented me with the CSD policy about public records. I informed her that the CSD’s policy does
not supersede state law. She stated the CSD’s lawyer has vetted the policy of allowing 10 days for copies. I agreed with the fact that if I wanted copies the CSD has 10 day to produce them or request in writing another 14 days if the documents are archived, need redacting or need to be generated. She stated they had too much work to do so I would have to wait and then I was asked to leave the office, which I did. This type of flagrant disregard for state law has to end. I am calling on the Board of Directors to direct the general manager to instruct district employees to follow all the sections of state law, even those that are inconvenient.

Some 936 people reported feeling the 3.7 magnitude quake to the United States Geological Survey’s online “felt report.” The quake, which struck at 1:17 a.m., was measured at a depth of about 5 miles, according to the USGS. Three hours later, USGS reported another quake, an aftershock in the same location that was 2.8 in magnitude and recorded at a depth of about 4 miles.

Montbleu to be sold as part of Eldorado/Caesars merger Tahoe Daily Tribune STATELINE, Nev. — Eldorado Resorts announced Tuesday that it has entered into a definitive agreement to sell the Montbleu Resort Casino & Spa at Stateline to Maverick Gaming. The transaction is subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions, officials said in a press release, and is expected to close in the second half of 2020. Terms of the transaction — which has been rumored for months as a likely byproduct of Eldorado’s impending merger with Caesars Entertainment — were not immediately disclosed. “The agreement to divest Montbleu is consistent with our continued focus on the expected closing for the
Caesars transaction in the first half of 2020,” said Eldorado Chief Executive Officer Tom Reeg. Macquarie Capital is acting as exclusive financial advisor and Milbank LLP is acting as legal counsel to Eldorado Resorts in connection with the proposed transactions. Eldorado Resorts owns the Eldorado, Silver Legacy and Circus Circus casinos in Reno. According to previous reports, the closing of the $17.3 billion Eldorado/Caesars merger was initially expected to occur by the end of March this year. The news comes a few weeks after Caesars Entertainment and VICI Properties Inc. announced Jan. 15 an agreement to sell Harrah’s Reno to an affiliate of CAI Investments for $50 million.

Winter returns this weekend Tahoe Daily Tribune Winter makes a strong return this weekend to Lake Tahoe. Possibly the biggest winter storm of the season is aimed at the basin with 2 to 3 feet of snow forecast for the mountains by the National Weather Service in Reno. NWS has issued a high wind watch from Friday through Saturday and a winter storm watch that lasts over a day, from Saturday morning through Monday morning. Winds will increase Friday and turn strong early Saturday, making travel more difficult for airplanes and high-profile vehicles. The wind will consistently stay around 20-25 mph with gusts up to 45 mph, and up to 100 mph on the ridge tops. Waves could reach up to 5 feet on Lake Tahoe and boating will be dangerous. The best time to travel over the Sierra passes is Friday through Saturday morning, according to the
Abbott
NWS. Those attempting to travel later should be prepared to sit in their cars for several hours as heavy snowfall will likely make travel impossible. Remember to pack tire chains, extra food, water and clothing. The snow starts Saturday initially above 7,000 feet, but quickly lowers to where it’s an all snow event. Saturday night the snow hits hard and by Sunday morning the lake could anywhere from 6-15 inches of snow and the mountains above 7,000 feet could have 2-3 feet of snow. Reno and Carson City could also accumulate several inches of snow. The snow continues Monday into Tuesday and could add a few more inches at lake level and up to 10 inches on the mountains. Temperatures on Friday will reach into the 50s and then plummet to freezing and below for a few days during the storms. The biggest storm of the season so far was in mid-January and brought about 2 feet to a couple of resorts.

number of years, according to a news release from the District Attorney’s office. Abbott claimed she had no income and no support for herself or her five children and that her husband and the father of her children had been deported to Mexico when, in fact, he lived in the household and earned approximately $6,400 each month from his job, state DA officials. In the first of the two cases filed against Abbott, on Aug. 16, 2019, she pled no contest to felony welfare fraud where she took food stamps and cash aid under false pretenses, one count of perjury and one misdemeanor count of shoplifting from Walmart. In the second case involving Medi-
Cal fraud, Abbott pled no contest Jan. 7 to a felony violation of Welfare and Institutions Code section 14014(a) — providing false statements to receive health care. All together, Abbott was sentenced to 270 days in jail, 4 years of formal probation and ordered to pay more than $31,000 in restitution to the state Department of Healthcare Services and Department of Health and Human Services. The case was investigated by DA Investigator Ryan Andelin and prosecuted by Deputy District Attorney Erin Tognetti through a cooperative grant from the Department of Health and Human Services.

horoscope by Holiday Mathis n today ARIES (March 21-April 19). A strange communication is happening between your mind and your heart, and it has the effect of placing the one you love at the center of all of your activities whether or not said activities have anything to do with that person. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). As for the one standing on a mountain of achievement, or declaring a nuanced personal philosophy, or delving geekishly into a niche... when do they find the time? Time isn’t found; it’s used. And you’ll use it well today, too. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Fear can be more than just a feeling. Fear can be a habit, a personality, a passion. Fear can be a friend. You diffuse your fear by inviting it in for a congenial and short visit. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You hate confrontation so much that sometimes you give generously or even foolishly just to get out of having to come face to face with a bit of unpleasantness. Today, it will be better to take things on and get them over with. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Defeat isn’t the end. It’s just another step, a chance to regroup, change the plan, give it another go. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Knowledge is obtained through study. Wisdom, on the other hand, cannot be learned this way, nor can it be had through observation. There is only one way to become wise and that is through experience.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The interesting ideas will come and go, giving little sparks to your day. It’s the great ideas that will stick around, lighting a fire in you that keeps you burning into the night. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There’s a time to doubt yourself and a time to go full-on, fool-heartedly forward. Both will occur over the course of the day, but don’t let them overlap. Once you decide, step with confidence and don’t look back. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Ordinary thinking does not recognize extraordinary qualities. You’ve the higher intelligence to appreciate originality and to discern the wonderful nuances between things in the same category. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Let things come and go without worrying too much about what’s really yours. If it’s yours, then it can’t be taken from you, won’t leave you, and there’s nothing you can do to rid yourself of it either. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Follow the time traveler’s rules today. Any action that changes the course of any person, including you, will alter the timeline and thereby matter significantly. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Today offers a prime combination of calm stability and exciting chaos. This is partly due to the characters who populate your life, all of them spectacular in their own way.

County health officer gives coronavirus update to Placerville officials Pat Lakey Staff writer “There could be something out there that could pop up any day now.” — Nancy Williams, El Dorado County public health officer Despite noting that El Dorado County has dodged the coronavirus bullet thus far, county Public Health Officer Nancy Williams warned Tuesday that “we’ll have some cases before too long.” Her comments were made before the Placerville City Council as she gave an update regarding what’s being done locally to deal with what, the very next day, was termed by the World Health Organization to be a pandemic. A pandemic is a term to describe a situation deemed more serious than an epidemic, with the the occurrence of disease beyond expected norms. Williams’ advice came down to basics — if you think you’re exhibiting symptoms of coronavirus, don’t bother to go get tested because if you are indeed stricken, you’ll likely spread the virus unnecessarily. There is no vaccine currently so testing positive would not mean a cure would be forthcoming from health care staff. Unless desperately ill and in need of expert care, stay home, rest and wait it out. Noting that cases of the virus have been reported in neighboring counties, with one death reported in adjacent Placer County, Williams told the crowd at Town Hall that there’s “a good chance of spillover” soon into El Dorado County. “It has been all good news for us so far,” began Williams, “but we don’t know what we can’t see.” The county health officer added that at this stage in the progression of the virus, anyone infected locally would not be “traced person by person,” determining how many others they had come into contact with while contagious. Nor would they be placed under a 14-day quarantine, which has been a standard practice worldwide until recently. Instead, she said, WHO officials have declared the pandemic that began in Wuhan, China, now to be in the mitigation stage, “relying on education, telling people (who have the virus) to stay home — self-quarantine.” “(We’re advising) only going to seek medical care if they are really sick and need medical care.” Williams said the sheer numbers of the ill that are anticipated locally would be too much for the county Health Department to handle as far as determining with whom they have come into contact, a fact that has been borne out in other venues. “A number of counties have been overwhelmed” with outbreaks, she said, naming Placer, Sacramento, Yolo, Solano and Santa Clara counties. The source of the virus in numerous cases in those areas is termed “community transmission,” which Williams said interprets as “no known source of the illness.” As coronavirus predictably spreads to El Dorado County, she added, local health authorities will be hard-pressed n

In the meantime, Bob and Beverly will do their time at Travis and hopefully be released in 14 days, healthy, and as Bob said, looking forward to getting home again. On Wednesday afternoon the California Office of Emergency Services issued a press release noting that 1,452 individuals had been brought ashore from the Grand Princess cruise ship and either bused or sent by plane to different destinations with the operation scheduled to continue with the remaining passengers.

“We really want to get the word out on how EQIP and our organization can help with concepts and adopting land maintenance techniques to reduce wildfire risks,” explained Marquis. “We can assist people that have as little 1 acre of land with qualified dead and dying trees. There is an assessment first to see if those who apply qualify.” Jennifer Chapman, a public affairs officer with the Eldorado National Forest Service spoke during the demonstration and said it’s important that people know there are resources like EQIP available to help people “get done what everyone knows needs to happen” with respect to vegetation management. “Some of this work is really expensive.

rising fire insurance rates and taxes along with the extreme costs of tree removal for landowners — its difficult to afford,” said Chapman. Arborist and utility specialist Matthew Leland with SMUD also made note of vegetation management that the utility is implementing on Sher’s land and other landowners’ properties that have SMUD power lines and towers running through them. “SMUD wants to be proactive and work with landowners like Ben up here in EDC,” Leland said.

to stem its spread. “We won’t have the staff to do it,” Williams said bluntly, adding that residents might want to reconsider any plans to attend events where large crowds are present. “Lots of conversations” by county health officials are occurring with such entities as Marshall Hospital and local schools, the health officer added. She said school authorities are pondering whether and when student dismissals might be called for, should the virus take root locally. While global health officials point to the virus likely being most devastating on the

elderly and infirm, with healthy kids faring comparatively well, Williams pointed out that when it comes to illness, “children are superspreaders of things” and that that propensity needs to be considered in determining how to handle school attendance in the midst of the pandemic. Williams said her intent is to give as many facts, as much education, to the public and to those in charge of various entities so that sound decisions may be made. “There are no easy answers; we (Health Department staff) help counsel on decisions but we do not make the decisions,” she
explained. As the county’s public health officer, Williams added, “I have the power to shut down events — but I pledge never to do that in a vacuum.” Again, she said “social distancing” is an advised practice if and when coronavirus creeps into El Dorado County, and just because no local case has yet surfaced, the public should remain on the alert and take precautions by sanitizing themselves and their environment. “There could be something out there that could pop up any day now,” she warned.

HONOR A HERO with a run through the vines at Sierra Vista
Thomas Frey Staff writer
S
ierra Vista Vineyards & Winery hosts its first Hero Run April 4 with all proceeds going to El Dorado County sheriff ’s deputy Brian Ishmael’s family and the sheriff ’s Honor Guard. Ishmael left behind a wife and three children after being killed in the line of duty Oct. 23, 2019. Jim Czachorowski came to El Dorado County after acquiring Sierra Vista less than a year ago and told the Mountain Democrat he wanted to help in any way he could and the idea of having a 5k fundraiser came to mind. “The community has been
so welcoming, encouraging, helpful and just all around great,” Czachorowski said. “I heard about deputy Ishmael and the support that he had as a person and we are pretty honored to do this and make it great for them. We are going to give it everything we’ve got to make it successful.” Along with the run, there will be a live band, wine tasting and an auction. So far Marshall Medical Center, Shingle Springs Subaru, Main Street Melters, Kings Meats and Paco’s Mexican Cuisine have contributed with donations of cash or auction items. The run will provide extravagant views for everyone going through the
majestic course. “They are going to see the complete view of the Crystal Range of the Sierra perfectly,” Czachorowski said. “As they go the opposite direction, you can see all the way to Sacramento. We’ve got a 360-degree view of the whole area.” Czachorowski and Sierra Vista Winery have also created special blends to honor Ishmael called Fallen Hero Red and Fallen Hero White. Ishmael’s badge number was 1689 and for every bottle sold, $16.89 will go back to the family. All participants will receive an event T-shirt, souvenir wine glass and a finisher medal. The adult race will start
at 10 a.m. followed by the kids race at 11 a.m. Kids will be able to play in a bounce house and food trucks will be available. Creating the course has been a complete team effort. While Czachorowski has set up the route, he has had people volunteer by helping him clear space. He removed a few trees and has had people stop by and take the wood. His neighbor has provided 5 acres of his front yard for parking. “We were going to do something small, but I don’t have it in my wiring to go half-throttle on anything so I’m like if we are going to do this we are going to do it right,” Czachorowski said. “We worked on this course and
DEPUTY BRIAN ISHMAEL I’m really excited about doing it. It’s going to be a great event and hopefully hugely successful that weekend.” Anyone who would like to donate or participate in the race will find more information by visiting sierravistawinery.com or by calling (530) 622-7221. Sierra Vista Winery is located at 4560 Cabernet Way, Placerville.
The shows go on at Sacramento’s Crocker Art Museum Karen Christian Crocker Art Museum The Crocker Art Museum, 216 O St. in Sacramento, offers a diverse spectrum of exhibitions, events and programs to enrich the visitor experience. Visitors are invited to view the following events during March.
Exhibitions American Expressions/African Roots: Akinsanya Kambon’s Ceramic Sculpture — through July 5 Born as Mark Teemer in Sacramento, Akinsanya Kambon is a former Marine, Black Panther and art professor. Stricken with polio as a child, he turned to drawing for comfort and ultimately his therapy. He recalls in his adolescence frequent visits to the Crocker Art Museum, which fascinated him and showed him the human potential in creating art. He served a tour of duty in Vietnam with the United States Marine Corps from 1966-68. Shortly thereafter, he created “The Black Panther Coloring Book” to bring attention to racial inequality and social injustice. Despite being only semi-literate in his youth, Kambon went on to earn his master’s of fine art from California State University, Fresno. In more recent years, he was featured in “Wartorn: 1861–2010,” an HBO documentary screened at the Pentagon on posttraumatic stress disorder in veterans. Today, Kambon’s work is as rich and varied as his personal history, expressed through drawings, paintings, bronze sculptures and ceramics. This exhibition focuses specifically on the artist’s ceramic sculptures, which are fired using the Western-style raku technique — a challenging, dangerous and unpredictable process that creates prismatic and iridescent glaze finishes. He performs kiln firings in a ceremonial manner, breathing life into ceramic figures that typically
“Sand Dunes” by Granvill Redomond, n.d., oil on canvas, 30 x 40 inches. represent African deities and spirits and, sometimes, American history and religious subjects. Drawing heavily on narrative tradition and personal experiences, including extensive travels throughout Africa, Kambon’s work celebrates perseverance through hardship, cultural pride and his gift as a storyteller. Bill Viola: The Raft — through May 10 Bill Viola (American, born 1951) is a major figure in the development of video and installation art. For more than four decades the artist has created video work, architectural video installations, sound environments, electronic music performances and works for television broadcast. “The Raft” exemplifies Viola’s powerfully affecting work. Originally created as a commission for the 2004 Olympics in Athens, this is the first time “The Raft” will tour the United States. Meticulously captured in slow-motion, “The Raft” arouses a
visceral experience of human calamity and shared humanity, provoking a consideration of the range of responses to crisis. This presentation of “Bill Viola: The Raft” is organized by the American Federation of Arts (AFA) and Bill Viola Studio. “The Raft” is part of ArtRoom, an ongoing series of contemporary art installations organized by the AFA. This presentation is made possible, in part, by funds from the A.R. Brooks Trust. The Splendor of Germany: 18thcentury Drawings from the Crocker Art Museum — through May 10 Selected from the Crocker Art Museum’s renowned collection of German drawings — one of the finest and earliest in the United States — this exhibition examines the major developments in German draughtsmanship over the course of the 18th century. With such artists as Johann Wolfgang Baumgartner, Anton Raphael Mengs and Johann
Heinrich Wilhelm Tischbein, the exhibition celebrates the inventive beauty of German art, from the flowering of the Baroque to measured Neoclassicism. One of the greatest strengths of the exhibition is the landscape tradition, which can be traced from Johann Georg Wille through the ravishing works of two generations of pupils. This exhibition celebrates the 150th anniversary of the acquisition of the E. B. Crocker Collection of drawings. Granville Redmond: The Eloquent Palette — through May 17 Granville Redmond (1871–1935) produced a body of work that captures California’s diverse topography, vegetation and color. Representing both northern and southern parts of the state, his paintings range in style from contemplative, Tonalist works that evoke a quiet calm, to dramatic and colorful Impressionist scenes. Born in Philadelphia, he contracted scarlet fever as a toddler, which left him permanently deaf. Soon after, his family moved to California. Redmond is today best known for his colorful Impressionist oils depicting the California landscape ablaze with poppies and other native flora. Silent film star Charlie Chaplin, Redmond’s friend and supporter, said of these paintings, “There’s such a wonderful joyousness about them all. Look at the gladness in that sky, the riot of color in those flowers. Sometimes I think that the silence in which he lives has developed in him some sense, some great capacity for happiness in which we others are lacking.” Today, Redmond is widely considered one of California’s top early artists. This exhibition, the largest ever assembled and the first in more than 30 years, includes 75 paintings in oil and 10 in other media.

econd Saturday looks to be a glorious night of music this month. Gracing the Shingle Springs Community Center stage March 14 will be Nipper Brothers, The Creepy Uncles and Lya’s Liquid Lights. Expect a show steeped in colorful, West Coast Grateful Dead vibe and stellar musicianship. Nipper Brothers is a Sacramento-based band that plays music from the Grateful Dead along with Dead-friendly material from J. J. Cale, Van Morrison, John Hiatt, Railroad Earth and many others. The focus is on delivering strong vocal harmonies with textured instrumentals in the context of good songs. Brothers Joe and Scott Nipper have been playing music together and separately for five decades. They have appeared in countless venues across the country and performed on numerous recording sessions, playing a wide variety of rock, blues, soul, country, jazz, folk and other musical styles. In the 1980s Joe and Scott recorded and performed with the original music band Nipper, playing clubs in the Los Angeles area including the world-famous Troubadour. In recent years, Scott has played in the local region with such groups as JabberJaw, PUSH and Second Time Around. Joe recently relocated to this area from Virginia where he co-founded Beggars Tomb, one of the premier Grateful Dead cover bands in the midAtlantic region. Together again, they are playing a wide spectrum of music with an emphasis on three- and four-part vocal harmony and jambased songs. It is a dancer’s dream and a listener’s joy. The concert starts at 7 p.m. with The Creepy Uncles opening the show.

T
he sun’s rays threatened to consume the last of the morning mist that lay heavy on the bottom of Weber canyon. Beckoned by this transient scene, I descended down the canyon’s south facing slope, through oak and buckeye that had been stripped bare by winter winds. On reaching the canyon floor I followed the trail that accompanied the course of the creek. The watercourse was overgrown with willows, brambles and the discards of last year’s vegetative exuberance. In the distance a shabbily dressed couple, with dirty cloth sacks were scavenging amongst the leafless brambles. Perhaps they sought some rare, delectable fungi to later be consumed around a nocturnal campfire. I did not pursue a line of enquiry with them as, like feral animals sensing danger, they progressively moved on as they saw me advance along the trail toward them. So, to give
“Weber Reservoir” by David Yapp them respite from my imminent approach, I stopped for a short while and contemplated the sunlight filtering through the fretwork of sodden branches and pondered the rushing creek below. I resumed my walk and on turning a bend in the trail, I discovered the man on his haunches. With a weathered, pewtercolored pan in his hand he sifted through the alluvial deposits of an insignificant gully that ran alongside the trail. “You panning for
gold?” I asked reticently, not wanting to sound too inquisitive. “Yearp” he replied in a slow drawn out way; perhaps hoping that his lack of eye contact, arched back and broad shoulders would deflect any further questioning. “You ever find any?” “Yearp — in the creek below.” I moved on, aware that my gold-panning friend was in no hurry to share his secrets of gold mining success in the El Dorado County foothills. Above on the slope his partner, a girl
with bleached-blonde and vermillion-dyed hair, continued to scour the slope for treasure of a more mycological nature. As I progressed further down the trail, the creek fed into a deep, emerald-green pool. The morning mist rose off the pool’s surface, intermingling with the purple, yellow and gray of the branches of the trees that grew along its periphery. The bright white head and flanks of a bufflehead duck acted as a beacon in the shadowy pool.
Traveling on, the now sandy, ochre-colored trail was intermittently pierced with pools of rainwater that had collected in its gullies and ruts. Shadows of the overhanging branches diffused into the puddles like pigment suspended in an encaustic painting. Two spotted towhees clowned in the fallen leaves, seeking to unearth some unsuspecting, slumbering invertebrate. Manzanita bushes with n

Local artists represent Sacramento’s diverse culture News release The Sacramento Asian Pacific Chamber of Commerce partnered with the Sacramento Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, Sacramento Rainbow Chamber of Commerce and Sacramento Black Chamber of Commerce, as well as with SMUD and Wells Fargo to highlight the diversity of Sacramento with an art exhibit at the Sacramento International Airport. This interactive exhibit — This is Sacramento — features renowned local artists and muralists who spotlight the people, places and neighborhoods that make the Sacramento area one of the most culturally integrated places in the world. “We’re excited to be partnering with our fellow chambers to highlight the uniqueness of our region,” said Fred Palmer, executive director of the Sacramento Rainbow Chamber of Commerce. “In this phase, we
are celebrating our differences and providing visitors with a space to recognize our cultural assets.” “This airport exhibit is the first phase but will expand into some of Sacramento’s most culturally rich neighborhoods in phase two,” said Azizza Davis Goines, president and CEO of the Sacramento Black Chamber of Commerce. “Art can bring people together and our purpose in this initiative is to celebrate those differences, start conversations, illuminate social causes and energize our communities,” said Pat Fong Kushida, president and CEO of the Sacramento Asian Pacific Chamber of Commerce. The exhibit features artwork from local artists and provides a pathway for emerging artists to grow their careers and display their artistic interpretations of Sacramento to visitors to Sacramento and their own neighborhoods. The exhibit is located on the third floor of Terminal B and includes murals, sculptures and
multimedia displays. “This is a unique partnership that honors our cultural diversity, colors our neighborhoods and creates a sense of community pride while providing economic opportunities for featured artists,” said Cathy Rodriguez, president and CEO of the Sacramento Hispanic Chamber of Commerce.

Inspiring future artists 2020 is New Morning Youth & Family Services 50th year anniversary. Throughout the year there will be 50 years’ worth of stories about the New Morning Shelter. Readers will see stories from staff and board of directors as well as stories about the children who the agency has served through the eyes of the staff and some stories directly from the clients.
No. 9 Devon was a 4-year-old boy who until May of last year lived with his mother and father and infant brother. In May, after an argument with his wife, Devon’s father went into the garage at the family home and shot and killed himself. Devon’s mother was overwhelmed by the tragedy and was emotionally unavailable for Devon and his brother for several months. When his mother was able to return to parenting, Devon was very angry and aggressive with her. He could be defiant and physically violent. At this time his mother brought Devon to therapy at New Morning.
Concert
Devon has spent months working with his therapist exploring his grief over his father’s suicide and his anger with his mother for her abandonment of him following that event. Devon and his mother have worked on rebuilding trust between them and improving the mother-child relationship. Devon has also played out his fears of her leaving him permanently. His episodes of anger and aggression have diminished significantly and his mother is now able to handle her parenting responsibilities with love and confidence. For 50 years New Morning has provided a safety net of services to youth and their families in El Dorado County, including the only 24-hour emergency youth shelter in the county for homeless, runaway and in-crisis youth. The nonprofit provides professional counseling services to children age birth to 18 and supports children and youth who are victims of abuse, struggling with alcohol and drug issues, experiencing trauma and facing school failure. Other services include parent education, assist youth aging out of foster care and Latino outreach.

artists old and new like The Avett Brothers, Ben Harper, Dispatch, Decemberists, ELO, Jason Mraz, REM, The Wood Brothers, to name a few. The Creepy Uncles might even throw out an original or two. Three musicians — Steve Weaver, Mike Mayfield and Craig Pooley — put this trio together to perform at a milestone birthday party of a very special friend, their own bass man Mike. Drawing on their different musical paths they put together a new ensemble of tunes and found a cohesive energetic theme they had to share. Yes, each are uncles but really not that creepy. Joking around in their usual twisted sense of humor at rehearsal one evening and in search of a catchy band name that people would remember they stumbled on The Creepy Uncles. Pooley said, “We were looking for a name that would just pop out and compel you to say out loud.”

their jade leaves and oxidized, metallic branches flanked the trail. Water droplets from the previous night’s rain encrusted the edge of each wedge of jade like crystalized sugar. A boxy Labrador jolted toward me on arthritic limbs — ball in mouth, coughed his friendly welcome. An old man bearing a drooping mustache, followed on rickety legs — stout staff in-hand. “Where is it? Where is it — where’s the ball?” he groused in a hoarse, uncongenial voice. “It’s in his mouth,” I replied. “Humph,” he retorted and off he went erratically splashing through the puddles in pursuit of his hound. I continued onward and eventually came to an offshoot to the trail that descended down to the water’s edge. Facing the pool was one, solitary, white, metal chair, placed in such a way as if to invite me to a time of quiet reflection — to come away and rest awhile. David Yapp is an artist based in Camino.

The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 2442 COLOMA RD PLACERVILLE, CA 95667 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be held, but without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, condition, or encumbrances, including fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust, to pay the remaining principal sums of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is: $117,450.09 If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned or its predecessor caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (844) 477-7869 or visit this Internet Web site WWW.STOXPOSTING.COM, using the file number assigned to this case 086469CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call or visit the Internet Web site, using the file number assigned to this case 19-006696. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. www.homesearch.com 800-7588052 Or Aztec Foreclosure Corporation (877) 257-0717 www.aztectrustee.com DATE: 2/28/2020 AZTEC FORECLOSURE CORPORATION Amy Connolly Assistant Secretary / Assistant Vice President Aztec Foreclosure Corporation 3636 N.
