On Diablo's Threads of Hope Awards

I absolutely loved the Threads of Hope: Heroes article—I was impressed and inspired by these altruistic people who found niches in which to serve. The photos spoke volumes - so well done, capturing the individual beauty of these people. No one covers the best martini, the best plastic surgeon, and the best golf course better than Diablo, but the Heroes article is one type I'd like to see more of.

Thank you.

On New Tahoe 

Fabulous article about Tahoe. As a Realtor, really appreciate the positive spin on our beautiful area. Inspite of the dreadful economic news, this beauty of this area will never change and opportuity to buy here has never been more attractive. Low interest rates, abundant inventory and realistic prices are inviting components for those who can step in with loan qualification and/or cash.

I called about the Squaw Valley Kids Club and I don't believe it exists. The person who answered the phone gave me the number for the Kid's ski program. If anyone has any further info, please post as we would love something like this!

The Village at Squaw Valley Kid's Club will still happen as planned, but unfortunately the supervision staffing was cut due to recent budgetary constraints. Activities such as arts & crafts, games, movies, etc. will still be there to entertain the children, but parental supervision will be necessary now. For information, call 530.584.6227.

On Holiday Gift Guide

It would have been nice to see more reasonably priced gift options...these were pretty extreme.

I wonder why you used Bloomindales for gift ideas as they don't have a store in the East Bay. I like the idea of checkpoint friendly laptop cases. Edwards Luggage at Broadway Plaza has a nice selection of them.

On Tattoo You

What? No stun guns and samurai swords in the Walnut Creek location? I feel so cheated.

All kidding aside, I feel it is a good thing to see body art going more mainstream. If having a tattoo studio in Walnut Creek helps continue to erase the stigma of people with tattoos being of a criminal nature, I am all for it. I hope they succeed.
