Trust me.  Get out the mosquito repellant, because West Nile positive mosquitoes are in our neighborhood.  While the rest of the town was distracted about how best insure bears breaking into our homes, we let WNV-positive mosquitoes in through the back door. Prepare to start shaking violently.  Patience may be a virtue, but West Nile creates patients heading for the valley.

The trustees who supported getting rid of the Donut House are Ken Zornes, Ron Norris, Patrick Martchink, and Carlie Bangs.  I don't think any of them have lived here longer than a decade.  They probably think Winchell's is a tasty equivalent.  Maybe we should have a San Juan-style rally and ask for their removal.

Lon's father Lynn proposed Estes Park's landmark "Giant Slide" in 1969.  Today, he would have been chased out of town or recalled Lon actually passed away in Sun City, Arizona, back in November 2018, but only now is family publicizing his death locally.  Took over "Fun City" from his father Lynn, and spearheaded the Estes Park Health Club (now the Brewery) and  "Lonigans" on West Elkhorn.  Services will be held in the Stanley Music Room on Friday, August 2.

Perhaps the bread mold spells out "Eat Me", but I would stay far, far away.  I would also point out that "Good" is two steps above "Marginal".  But enjoy that slice of salmonella.

wearing the leathery brown hat in this photo, would be kind enough to identify himself in the comments section, I have a couple of questions for him.  Nothing too inflammatory, just wondering if he is in the League or just participated in the Rooftop Rodeo as a supporter of voting rights.

I can finally stop keeping track.  They just forgot to name a candidate.  Oh right, their candidate is "not Cody Rex Walker".  They are mailing out postcards to all registered voters prior to the election.  And Eric Blackhurst has told them not to include his name on any mailings.  I don't even attend the meetings or have folks on the inside, and this is patently obvious.  Tom Gootz got a dressing down, so the recall group is looking for someone to blame on the opposing side.  I don't know anyone with Tom Gootz' rancor and undisguised enmity for town officials, but maybe they can dress up a sheep in wolf's clothing and sling arrows at it.

Did you know that Mr. John Bostron and Rebecca Urquhart, Esquire, live right next to one another?  Did you know that both Mr. John Bostron and Rebecca Urquhart, Esquire, signed the recall petition, in fact, signed BOTH recall petitions?  Would Google Maps lie? John Bostron lives at 1886 Fall River Road, Rebecca Urquhart at 1955 Homestead Lane.  Wonder  which one has the sex doll? Looks like they share a property line, maybe a fence they exchange pleasantries over.  No, it couldn't be that John Bostron is taking his advice from Rebecca Urquhart.  Could it?

I'll just go ahead an update the eprecall-2019 site for them, since they are obviously not going to update their list of candidates, since they never fielded any.  Eric Wilson Blackhurst, housing authority board, town realtor, pro-development, pro-workforce housing, pro-density, pro-change. Didn't like all the money spent on bearproof containers in town, though, and criticized the League of Women Voters, but I'm sure that won't come up at the "candidate (singular)" forum.  Strange bedfellows, and all that... so much depends upon a red wheel barrow glazed with rain water beside the all-white League of Women Voters (With thanks to William Carlos Williams)

updated their website.  No, just joking.  It's the same information as from June 20, 2019.  The eprecall-2019 team treats their website as a stone tablet.  Never to be changed.  Ho-hum. Oh, John Bostron released a "bombshell" today.  You remember John Bostron, the 43-year-old who signed both recall petitions, right?  I'm not sure what information he will be releasing about Todd Jirsa, but stick around, it will probably be something along the lines of the current mayor once planning to open a ski hill and zip lines on the old Elkhorn Lodge property, all in broad daylight.

And you know what that means:  No update to the eprecall-2019 website to indicate who their candidates are.  It much be fun to sit in on the recall group's strategy planning meetings, with Tom Gootz threatening to rape everyone and Decca Bravehart screaming down every female who dares to speak when they don't have the floor, renaming them Offred or Ofglen.  Man, are these folks Jehovah Witnesses praying for Armageddon, or do they just see the end of the world in every warm day and every business opening its doors to new customers?

And the proposed water rate increase will pass unanimously. I'm looking forward to the time when Estes Park completes the loop.  That loop being the loop where the trustees actually do something beyond listening.  Maybe they are listening to other (more) people.  I doubt if anyone has sent them emails demanding an increase in water rates.  Maybe they are listening to staff, who are listening to outside consultants.  Generally, trustees hear voices they didn't know existed when the run for re-election.  We lost two incumbents last cycle, and gained three new trustees.  I wonder why?  Are the three new trustees listening?  Of course they are.  Are they making any changes based on that input?  Only if that input comes from individuals they agree with.  Being a trustee means making tough decisions, like denying people the right to vote on things like the Loop because the common rabble is passionate and stupid.  That was a decision made not by the majority, but by a group of pi

At least according to the eprecall-2019 website.  No update since the deadline for filing on June 20, 2019.  I might just start using this as wallpaper.  All of you folks who signed the petition, do any of you have any web designing background?  You might want to take over this recumbent, near-catatonic website.

Smokin Dave's is one step above unacceptable?  Will that make the golfers any less anxious to grab a wormy-q after finishing a round?  Oh, and by the way, Friday, July 5 and still no update on the recall-2019 candidates running in the special election, blah, blah.

 Earthquakes in Southern California, but nothing shaking for eprecall-2019 supporters.  If not for Ann Finley (who signed the recall petition after it was notarized, thus disqualifying herself - Way to go, LWV!!), no one would know about even the mere existence of Eric Blackhurst from the recall-2019 website.  People everywhere want to know:  Why does the eprecall-2019 site never get updated?  Is the webmaster hibernating?  Every day, something new is added to the Cody Rex Walker website.  Is this an indication of good governance versus "oh hell, we'll get around to it sometime" angry knee-jerk revenge recalls?

And the eprecall-2019 website is gathering dust and cobwebs.  I wonder if their supporters will ever learn who their candidate(s) are?

And I think you already know what I'm about to say:  Update your website.  Download version 2.0.  Say hello to my little friend Eric Blackhurst.  He is your candidate, you know.
