Pit gates open for rac - ers at 8 a.m. April 19, with practice starting at 9 a.m. The track will be open for practice until 7 p.m. Prac - tice will be split up in time periods for different bikes sizes and skill levels to allow plenty of time for everyone to get some good track time in.

In Red Bluff, the spring coats everything with a blanket of green that beauti - fies the ground for a blink of an eye before the brutal heat sets in. Every- where you travel, you sim- ply feel good by the pres- ence of the beautiful grass, wild flowers and you can begin to hear the birds singing again. Word has gotten out that I will be moving. When my youngest child graduates in June 2015, our whole family is relo - cating and beginning new lives and new adventures and we are pretty excited about it. In the meantime, I want to soak up every - thing about our area and really take in the things that set Tehama County apart from other places. It's like a bucket list of sorts. To see, do and ex - perience as much as I can and talk about it here, in my column, because it re- minds everyone of what is right with where we live and my internet reach may encourage a few more visitors to the area. I have managed to com - plete a few things off of my bucket list of quintessen- tial Tehama County expe- riences already. Last year I was a judge for the ro- deo parade, I preformed on the State Theatre stage and of course, I have writ- ten for the Daily News. I am building a list of other opportunities to join in on other events and if you have any suggestions, con - nections or ideas, let me know. It will be fun to partici- pate and share my experi- ence in my column. These past weeks have been about driving. Tour- ing and hiking the north state, Tehama County and beyond. I recently spent a day in the Dunsmuir, McCloud, Mt. Shasta area seeing breathtak - ing sights and enjoying amazing goodies at the lo- cal eateries. I toured the mountains through Las- sen and Chester and found an amaz- ing dog boutique where I bought a Yak's milk treat for my dogs that I am pretty sure is actu - ally made of doggie crack they loved it so much. A week ago, I dragged one of my besties on a hike to the top of Hogs - back. The view was amaz- ing, the lush green and the laziness of the live- stock. This past week- end we went to Hog Lake and I was fine until I saw the snake. Ughhhhhhh. Nonetheless, the rocks up above the lake are amaz - ing and it reminds me of what much of our area must have looked like prior to the rocks being removed for grazing. Af - ter the snake debacle, the bestie and I headed to Manton to drive through the wineries and the fire devastation that looks like nuclear winter despite the time that has gone by. We shared a Choco Taco at the general store and laughed and talked about old times while driving my mom's car that I restored, a vintage Mercedes 450SL — the U Matter Mobile. Spring is fleeting in Te - hama County. I encour- age you to get out and see the beauty. We take a lot of where we live for granted because we live here. Knowing that I am leaving gives me an ap - preciation for the beauty. It makes me want to sa- vor the sights, the sounds, the smells and the activ- ities. You don't have to have one foot out of the county to have the same clarity. Hike up Hogsback, drive to the wineries, par - ticipate in the local activi- ties. Renew your spirit by doing things in your own back yard. Faydra Rector, MA is a mental health administra - tor, author, public speaker, educator and life coach who lives in Red Bluff.
