While her family thought she was nuts to quit her job with the United States Postal Service, es- pecially since she was working in Hawaii, it was something Wheeler felt at 23 she needed to do now and not just dream about doing, she said. "I've wanted to do it since I was 19," Wheeler said. "At 17, I went to Italy and I knew then I wanted to travel more. It was the best expe- rience I've ever had. It was just incredible." Originally, she bought tickets for her and her best friend in No- vember and knew they would land in Glasgow, Scotland, but hadn't really planned the trip beyond that, Wheeler said. Her friend had to cancel, but she had met a man online who was in Edin- burgh. The two of them ended up deciding to go on the bicycle tour. Wheeler's traveling compan- ion, 24-year-old Ladislav Szil- vasi, was from Bratislava, Slova- kia, so they picked that as their final destination on the 11-coun- try tour. The trip took them from Scotland to England, Holland and Belgium before heading into Ger- many, the Czech Republic, Luxem- bourg, France, Austria, Hungry and Slovakia. "His journey ended there so I decided to end there," Wheeler said. "At times, it would be 11 p.m. and we had no food or were out of water or we couldn't see to be able to find a place to set up a tent and we didn't know where TRAVEL REDBLUFFHIGHGRAD CYCLES ACROSS EUROPE TEHAMA Fiber arts in gen- eral and weaving in particular will draw guests into the Marty Graffell Annex at the Tehama County Museum's 34th annual Jubilee on Saturday.

According to court documents, between April and June 2012, Ja- son B. Scarcello used a file-shar- ing program to download multi- ple movies depicting the sexual exploitation of children. Scarcello was arrested on July 25, 2012, af- ter agents executed a federal search warrant at his residence and discovered CDs and DVDs containing sexually explicit im- ages and videos of children. According to the search war- rant affidavit, suspicions about Scarcello first arose after inves- tigators determined that he had engaged in computer chats with a previously charged suspect in Kansas.

"Volunteers will be assembling as many quilt-tops as time and materials allow during the four- day run of the fair, each of which will be awarded to a service mem- ber or veteran via the Quilts of Valor Foundation," said Lynn Strom, a Home and Arts building volunteer and coordinator. "Al- though Quilts of Valor Foundation operates nationwide, the quilts assembled here will be award to men and women in our area." The goal is to comfort and heal those service members with a beautiful, community made quilt, Strom said. "The Home and Arts exhibit de- serves a little attention," Strom said. "We are encouraging peo- ple to enter the show and see the great things you can do with a sewing machine." The quits will be made at the event and open for anyone to come and enjoy. "We are hoping a lot of veterans will come in and see us," Strom said. "You can see the quits being made right there at the fair and see the finish product. It is some- thing unique." The quits will be 100 percent cotton, which will make them durable, Storm said. They will be pieced together by someone who has been touched by war. "The goal is to give returning service members, who have been injured or who have emotional trauma, a quilt," Strom said. " Quits are very loving, hand made things."
