Probably the most prominent feature in or around Oroville is Table Mountain. It’s much more prominent than the dam. In fact, it’s hard to miss it. You just look over thata way and there it is – big flat mountain that looks like somebody sliced off the top portion, probably about halfway down. We heard…
Return to the Highway After an unspectacular breakfast at Coldfoot, we bailed back into the van to continue our trip on the Dalton Highway. There was a lot of catching up on things, people telling how they spent the evening, how they slept, and how they did not see the Northern Lights. Our comment that…
That even sounds nice, doesn’t it? Paradise Flume Trail. That’s been on our agenda since we moved to Oroville in March, and we finally made there last Wednesday.

And this is Sophie, seal lynx Balinese. This is Sophie at four weeks old, what I like to call “the bewildered jellybean…
Dangerous fugitive Puddin, aka “Wild Child” lurking in his secret hideout, reportedly under a neighbor’s deck. The fugitive was brought to justice and taken into custody with the aid of food, water, a chemical compound, and a lot of pleading. Puddin was interviewed by this reporter in the detention facility, commonly known and “Diane’s House.”…
