Things happen out of our control. Recently, my newish landlord would like me to vacant the premises I  think it is to accommodate his son’s family that occupy the downstairs, formerly Dr. Boomer’s office. It is has been bittersweet since this had my home for the past twenty-two years. However, I am optimistic that all will work for the best. While my personal belongings is a piece of cake so to speak, it is the archives–six file cabinets and some 30 bound volumes of local newspapers that I have to contend with. The latter, [the newspapers] I am looking for a future home. The files will eventually to go University Nevada, Reno.

I am open to all suggestions and I hope my future home will be easily found.  After all it would be a boost to my mental health and my blood pressure, so I can focus on writing daily posts to enlighten you, the reader.

P. S. Do please spread since the region’s history is vulnerable,  and I do not want to overlook anything.

This is a very brief Tuesday Tidbit. This is of the 1949 Native Daughters  Lassen County fair parade float.

Over the holidays, I did not feel that well, and I just put that down because I am not holiday season person. Needless, to say last week  on a trip to Urgent Care, my blood pressure was sky high, the numbers too frightening to share.I am on medication, but it will be awhile before the blood pressure drops to normal range and I can fully function.

While I always have at least two dozens drafts for future posts that   am working on, completing them might be a challenge. In the meantime so there are not interruptions I can glean some early posts from 2015-2018 era supplement any holes.

Thank your understanding.

It was on this date in 2015 that I launched this site. The daily postings were not inaugurated until April, since I was still learning the “how to” of the doing tasks. Early on I had a lot of naysayers, and still do, about this endeavor, so here is to perseverance.. Today, I am grateful  for those individuals after all these years who have supported this site. While we never know what the future holds, it is my intention to carry on to until February 2030.

On a quarterly basis, I ask you the reader, if there is something you would like to learn more about or maybe its something you heard, but question its validity. So here is an opportunity to participate. I will do my best to answer any questions. It should be noted, it may take awhile for the answer to appear as a post. The primary reason, many of the daily posts are done nearly a month in advance. So by the time you read this I am already working on posts for the middle of February, or at least I should be. Whatever the case may be, I look forward to hearing from you. Of course, it should be noted that paid subscribers requests receive priority. In addition, you can always send a request at any time.

December was a challenging month and so I have backlog of other tasks to contend with. Hopefully, by February it will be smoother sailing and the Tuesday Tidbits returns.

This is such a great photograph taken last fall, that I thought might be inspiring for the first day of the year, but alas malfunctions you did not receive notification on New Years Day..  For me I am looking forward 2026, since previous post was about Tanner Ranch, that consumed a lot of my energy in 2025, which I will repost.  Onward ho.

I hope to revive cemetery tours, I have an interesting one scoped out for Lassen Cemetery. I am also open to suggestions.

Lastly, I thank you for your patience about the daily notification glitch. I struggled for nearly week to resolve it. My knowledge of the inner workings of plugins and so forth has a lot to be desired. But we made it. I will blame it on the recent earthquakes, that changed the settings!

Tim

I am still working on the daily notification  glitch, I am hoping this will go through.
