Here is a Tuesday tid-bit for you. On September 1, I had assembled the calendar. Then, the weather turned brutally hot, so outdoor activities over the Labor Day Weekend was not really an option. In an attempt to be somewhat productive, I thought I would get a head start on the 2024 calendar. Then I reviewed the 2023 calendar layout, and it really was not to my liking. Back to square one. Seven of the originally planned photographs for the 2023 calendar were tossed aside and replaced.

The above photograph of the 4th of July parade in Susanville taken in 1905, was one that was scrapped. Back in the late 1800s and early 1900s there were occasions when the town did not acknowledge the 4th of July. Other times, the community would put on a grandiose celebration.
