Unfortunately I can't seem to conjure one up this time. My perception may be off as I can't imagine that there are no funny stories floating around the Tehama County area. The past few days when our fire fighters were fighting a major grass fire burned a big area near Sale Lane on two sides of Antelope Boulevard's sand slough bridge. A number of families gathered items and left the area. Tehama County Fire Department workers worked hard and heavy to prevent the continuing fire. This kind of happening can sometimes blot out our joyous experiences. Life is like an atmospheric experience. The signals say a big storm is brewing, we tense up, and we prepare for the worst only to find out that there is a rainbow at the end of what we thought was complete trouble. We worry for naught, our energies are depleted and our projects defeated. Sometimes our second-guessing keeps us from enjoying the moment or even glimpsing the rainbow in the heavens. The pace of most people's lives seems to allow busyness to snatch away the rainbow moments before one is aware of their value. It may be that we need to leam to take a deep breath, survey our surroundings and put on the proverbial "happy face." Too many of us are waiting to relax when we retire; the danger is that we just may forget how to relax..

Words seem truly inadequate to express the gratitude that we feel and the healing strength that you have given us. We are overwhelmed by the love, support and generosity that we have received from family, friends, youth, local businesses and the entire community. Although we are full of grief and sorrow, we simultaneously feel blessed by the love and support that has been showered upon us. All of you have deeply touched our hearts. Alvin, Debbie & Tori Garcia
