This is a popular spot where the
Middle Fork of the American River
and the North Fork come together.
And, its not far from Auburn. Water
levels here are more consistent since
its controlled upstream by Lake
Clementine.
Getting there: From I-80, take Highway 49 South toward Cool. Go 2.8
miles and find a place to park near
the bridge. There will be trails from
the parking areas to the river.
Local tips: There can be many people
here during the hot days of summer,
but there is a lot of beach area to
accommodate them.

Getting there: From I-80, take Laino Road exit, turn onto
Texas Hill road. Take this all the way down to North Fork
Campground. The entrance to the trail for the waterfalls is at
the back of the campground. Ask any camper where it is.
Local tips: Kids not recommended. Wear good shoes as the
trail is rough and even the most experienced hikers slip. And
dont wear sunglasses in the pools, waterfalls can easily claim
them.

Placer Nevada
Junior Golf Tour
PGAGolf Pros, Phil Green and Jason Harrington
at Placer Nevada Junior Golf Tour, have the willfulness to spread the love of golf to kids through a
fun instructional program.PNJGTs primary focus
isdeveloping golf skills from the very beginner to the
advanced golfer. They develop the individual child to
become a golfer, but not on the competitive side.The
kids traveled the course on a Sunday without a score
card in hand. And to give the more novice players
a chance, a best ball is played so the kids can move
through the holes with their group.
There are several competitive junior golf programs
that the Director Green wanted kids to fall in love
with the game instead of the competitive aspect. Golf
can be a stressful game and thats why PNJGT sets
their intentions on just having fun.Its a great atmosphere for the kids to be involved in because golfers
meet new friends while picking up new skills.An
average of 20 to 25 golfers participate on Sundays for
nine holes of golf at either of the three courses, Auburn Valley Golf Course, Black Oak Golf Course, and
Darkhorse Golf Club. Each hole is modified where
greens are set up 100 yards to the pin, making it less
daunting than the hole standard 300 yards.
Players are given instruction at Home On The Green
range and golf course instruction. Each seasonal session costs about $150. There are opportunities to play
all year long with the four different PNJGT seasons,
which has attracted youth golfers to take part in the
program from Truckee in the winter months.

Creatures
of habit
WRITTeN By TOM ORTIZ PHOTOS By TOM ORTIZ
The most special dogs (or cats) are the ones that
we develop a special rapport with.
RAPPORT: (noun) A close and harmonious
relationship in which the people or groups concerned understand each others feelings or ideas
and communicate well.
We develop a wonderful relationship with our
pets when we find a way to communicate with
our hearts. youve seen it. your dog simply
looks in your eyes, and stares at you, patiently
waiting for you to look back. Sometimes, your
dog wants a treat. Other times, your dog sees
you crying and puts his head in your lap to offer
consolation. In each circumstance, there is an
exchange of intelligence.
We dont always understand just how intelligent our pets are. Many folks talk baby talk
to their pets, and are satisfied with the simple
companionship of master and child. Others, talk
to them as if they are equals. In most cases, the
animals respond with equal, or even superior,
intelligence.
As you build respect and trust, animals reveal
many things, including emotions that you didnt
know were possible. One of my clients lost a
beautiful dog, named Crocker due to cancer this
last year. I came to the house to sit with the
other dog, Scooter, about a week after Crockers
death. It was the first time that I had come to
this home when there was just one dog, rather
than two. When I walked into the room, Scooter
sadly walked up to me. I knelt down. He put his
head on my shoulders, and cried for the longest
32
time. Knowing the dog, I knew he was trying to tell me about everything that had
happened. I cried with him.
Often, there are gaps between what one or the other are trying to convey and
understand. Some dogs learn tricks easily, while others seem to be impossible to
train. Ive learned that each dog has their own frequency of understanding.
As a professional dog sitter, I visit with many different types of dogs and cats. To
be successful, Ive had to be confident in my manner with these animals, as well
as be respectful of their territory. I also have to be clear that I am no push-over.
After a visit with my clients pets (which is usually for a week at a time), my clients
ask me, What did you do to my dog? They behave, now! My answer is simple:
Im a drill sergeant. Dogs are creatures of habit, and respond well to consistent
rules of conduct. I dont allow dogs to jump on me, and I dont allow random
barking. If the doorbell rings, and the dog barks, I respond with a simple ,thank
you, check the door, and acknowledge the dog for trying to warn me of a potential intruder (i.e. mailman, salesman, axe murderer, etc.). And thats the end of it.
When I take the dogs for walks, I insist that they heel. At every crosswalk, I have
them sit and wait for the command to allow them to cross the street with me.
you dont have to be mean, to be strict. I talk with dogs, as I would with anyone
else. There is a certain honesty in talking with dogs intelligently. I dont talk down
to them. There is a playfulness in our conversations. I ask them if they would
like to go out and look at the squirrels, or if they enjoyed the meal I prepared for
them. There is also the physical interaction. I play fetch, I rub their bellies.
Training a dog is not magic. It is simply a matter of supporting consistent behavior
that puts an animal in comfortable, secure place. With proper training, and positive encouragement, pets develop good behavior, as well as quality social skills.

Auburn at 6 p.m. learn more
at CanyonKeepers.org
If you have time, wander along the path, but if 3 or so miles is enough for you,
look for a fork in the road on your left headed uphill to the east. The hotter it gets
the more snakes you may find sunning themselves on the hot dirt of the path; be
aware. At the top of the hill you will find the loveliest pond with a grinding rock
begging you take a seat and enjoy the song of the red-wing blackbirds that call
this area home. Follow the pond to the north that brings you back to the signed
intersection of Ranch Road Trail and Olmstead loop. Turn right to return to the
parking area.
Take plenty of water. Much of this trail is exposed to the sun so a hat and sunscreen
will make the hike more comfortable. This short hike is only one of a dozen trails in
the area. These are multi-use trails so if you do wander there is usually a friendly
equestrian, runner or mountain biker to get you pointed in the right direction.

Leftovers
Fritata
1 zucchini
1 small yellow squash
Everyone has that one meal where you need to use everything in the
fridge before it goes bad. I know that before I go grocery shopping,
I like to have an almost bare fridge. My main go-to recipe for when
I am running low on food is my Leftovers Frittata. I take any veggie
or meat that I need to use up and throw it in a delightful crust less
quiche. No one would be able to tell that there was little thought put
into it. No matter what you throw in, it is almost always good. Serve
as a fancy brunch dish with mimosas or as a last-minute dinner.
Either way this dish is bound to impress and satisfy.

Chocolate Bailys
Irish Cream Cupcakes
yields 24 cupcakes
Occasionally I get a craving for a dessert so decadent that only something with chocolate, chocolate,
and more chocolate will satisfy.
Cupcakes are an easy treat to satisfy any craving and I absolutely love making them. They are less
hassle than baking an entire cake, you get a perfect ratio of frosting to cake, and as an additional
bonus you feel a lot less guilty eating three cupcakes than eating three whole pieces of cake. Plus
they are a simple and just plain cute dessert. Any dessert you can eat with your hands is a bonus in
my book. I decided to make Chocolate Baileys Irish Cream Cupcake and they were divine. The extra
sweet liquor frosting was perfectly paired with the bittersweet chocolate cake. It was a very rich
dessert and one was definitely enough. I made them special for my mother-in-laws birthday and
they were a hit with the entire family.
Cupcakes:

Arnold has said that PlacerGrown has had the crop-to-table outlook
since the beginning of Placer Countys strong agricultural farming industry. She added that its a way of life, its how you live when referring to
the abundant availability of eating either from your own garden, shopping
at a fruit stand, or at the farmers markets.
Arnold said there has seen a slight change with this years summer
vegetables as some have hit the stands a bit early.Cucumbers and stone
fruits popped up at Roseville Farmers Market in May. This year will be an
exceptional year for stone fruits like apricots and peaches that will rotate
varieties as they ripe over the summer.

Two comedians headline aT auburns sTaTe TheaTre

Talk about multiple personalities! Justin Rupple flies through
impersonations faster than you can say James earl Jones.
He is a talented comedian. A talent for which he was well-rewarded during a recent appearance on Dana Carveys First
Impressions television show. Rupple snagged the winning
number of votes and earned $10,000.
UPcomInG ShoWS
Justin Rupple
And about Dana Carvey? He was great, Rupple said. He just wants to make other
people shine. He continues to do that for comics every day and Im eternally grateful
for it.
Rupple is also an actor. He recently finished filming Operation Chromite with liam
Neeson, who he also impersonates, although not during filming.
I dont know how a comedian lands that job, but Ill take it, Rupple said.
Neeson did come up with new impersonations for Rupple to do. Anybody but him,
Rupple said. The rule was that I wasnt allowed to impersonate him because if I did
an Irish accent it would affect his American accent in the film.
He has won two national comedy competitions and was a finalist in two international
festivals.
Standup comedy is his favorite.
Nothing beats a live audience, he said.
you can feel peoples happiness actually
radiate. It feels like youre on a rollercoaster
with all of your friends and at the end its
just as exhilarating.
And each standup performance is unique.
Because it will never happen like that
again, he said. you have to be present and
enjoy it for the moment.

Jamie
Kaler
Being a new dad
only adds to the
mounds of material
of this noteworthy
comedian, host,
voiceover artist and radio personality.
Jamie Kaler is also a former U.S. Navy lieutenant.
Now, thats something you wont hear many
comedians say.
He is best known for his starring role as Mike on
the TBS show My Boys and as host of America:
Facts vs. Fiction on the American Heroes Channel.
Kaler has also appeared on Friends, Will and
Grace, How I Met Your Mother, Parenthood,
and King of Queens, as well as feature films and
commercials. He is the spokesman for the current
Ford Motor Company commercial campaign.
Kaler had his own radio show called Kaler on
SiriusXM, and is a contributing lifestyle writer for
Disneys Babble.com.
His standup act sometimes follows a theme along
the line of why we push to keep up with social
media. Why are we trying so hard to get all this
done, he said. It wont be remembered in three
generations anyway.
His jokes appeal to people who are family people,
he said. Who have one night out a month, have a
babysitter . Those are the people who I reward.
Kaler knows a lot about these families. He and his
wife have two little ones. He joked that hes taking
more standup gigs solely to get away from the
kids.
But as many comedians who have honed their
comic skills, Kaler appeals to many. And hes an
interactive comedian.
I kind of go where the audience goes, he said. I
make sure everyone has a good night.
By that, Kaler said every show is a little different,
but with the same premise: How to be happy in
life.

The modern
muscle car
Driving Impressions
We wouldnt enter the Chevy SS in an Australian V8 Supercar
race, but the Aussie and visiting Detroit engineers did a trueblue fair dinkum job in building a chassis thats a cut above
the standard. Its not easy to get cornering balance out of a
rear-wheel-drive car with a big heavy engine in front (although
Cadillac engineers did it, without Australian help, in the CTS-V).
Final Word
If you want a 21st century muscle car, and youre not a MoPar
man, the Chevy SS is all there is. Thats not bad. But go for the
manual transmission, and work with it. Stay true to the dream.

Meadow Vista
The MVCC board decided that the community center should not go into debt and would
be built as donations were received, this is
the reason it took so long for MVCC to be
able to open at least this one room today.
Several fundraising projects were initiated,
including the ongoing sale of engraved brick
pavers and park benches. Several annual
fundraising events were instituted to benefit
the Community Center fund, including Oktoberfest, the Kids Fishing Derby, a Classic Car
Show, and a runners marathon. It is hopeful
by opening this room the rest of the project
will move along at an accelerated pace, so
the community may be able to enjoy the
whole building in he very near future.
2000s - Architect Richard Wyatt completed
the exterior design and floor plan. On July 1,
2005, construction began on the Meadow
Vista Community Center. The former MVCC
Chairman, Michael Phillips, is hired to be the
general contractor and board member Erv
Morgenthal is elected to replace him.
2010s - Erv Morgenthal passed way and
Fred Eichenhofer took over the chairmanship
of the MVCC board. Newer board members
now include Mark Barbier, Craig Bradford,
David Lease, and Bob Suddjian.
May 22, 2016 - Grand Opening/Open
House .. of the North Wing, also known as
the Youth Room, of the Meadow Vista Community Center was dedicated and named in
honor of long time board members of MVCC
Bruce and Celia Broadwell. It will now be
known as the Broadwell Room

Cherries are a classic summer favorite and fit for all taste buds, whether you prefer the
burst of tartness or a sudden pop of sweetness. While both varieties are famously known
in Michigan, home to the National Cherry Festival and the worlds largest cherry pie,
California has a reputation for producing cherries, especially the sweet varietal.
Cherries have the highest antioxidant level of any fruit, which boosts memory and
helps slow down the skins aging process. Tart cherries are a natural source of melatonin, known for promoting a better nights sleep, whereas sweet cherries boast a good
amount of potassium, which can balance the fluid in our bodies and help offset high
blood pressure. In fact, one cup of sweet cherries contains a similar amount of potassium as a small banana. eating approximately two cups of cherries a day, either tart or
sweet, can lower uric acid and diminish swelling, inflammation and tenderness, which is
often associated with joint pain.
FLAVOR PAIRINGS
Cherries are a delicious and unique addition to main courses, pairing well with flavors
such as sage, chives, verbena and black pepper when cooked with pork, beef or game.
To bring out the cherrys flavor in sweeter dishes, add dairy products like sweet cream
ricotta cheese and mascarpone, or teaspoon of pure almond extract to the mixture.
Courtney McDonalds Fresh Cherry Crostata with Honey yogurt is a tasty dessert for any
summer gathering. (See recipe.)
