Jenny Sanchez-Maya and Sam Truax step off the red carpet during the homecoming festivities at last Friday night’s Carpinteria High School football game. Sanchez had just been crowned Homecoming Queen when she took the arm of Mr. Warrior contestwinner Truax. The football team fell to Fillmore High School 28-24 that night, but the loss didn’t dampen homecoming spirits. Students followed up the game with the annual homecoming dance the next night. For more photos of Mr. Warrior and the homecoming court, see pages 16-17. For more on the football game, see page 19.

A Summerland house was reduced to ash on the evening of Oct. 18, but the five fire agencies that rushed to the blaze successfully protected the rest of the neighborhood despite 65 mile-per-hour winds. “It was nothing short of a miracle that the crews from all agencies were able to keep this enormous fire contained to just one structure,” reported Grace Donnelly of CSFPD. ANNE SCOTT No one was home at the time of the house fire, and This three-story home on Whitney Avenue there were no injuries. In near Valencia Road burned down in a blaze an unlikely turn of events, on the night of Oct. 18. firefighters from CarpinteriaSummerland Fire Protection District happened to be across the street from the home at 2404 Whitney when the fire broke out. The crew had been called out to investigate power surges and confirm that the older house wasn’t at risk. “One of our firemen then noticed a structure fire directly across the street at 2404 Whitney and the crew quickly began the initial attack,” said Donnelly.

The fire destroyed the three-story home and sent sparks flying throughout the hillside neighborhood. Embers from a large jacaranda tree in the front of the home flew across the street and ignited vegetation in the front yard of the home where firefighters had earlier checked on the electrical system. Crews knocked down the front yard fire. The cause of the house fire is under investigation.

A 62-year-old Santa Barbara man died after a single vehicle car accident on Highway 101 just north of Santa Claus Lane on Oct. 20. The fatal collision occurred around 8 p.m. on the shoulder of the southbound lanes. Witnesses said that the man’s white Subaru had been weaving through traffic before the accident. Eventually the car went off the highway and down an embankment before catching fire. Because the car was lodged in brush, the doors couldn’t be open and the driver was trapped. Firefighters arrived, extinguished the fire and removed the man from the car. He succumbed to his injuries onsite. The cause of the collision is under investigation.

The Tree Advisory Board acts as an advisory to the City Council, City Manager, and City Staff and meets quarterly to discuss and administer all street tree matters.

School District seeks bus drivers

BY CHRISTIAN BEAMISH

Wendy Stevens, longtime Transportation Supervisor for the Carpinteria Unified School District, will be leaving her post in a month for a transportation job with the Ventura Unified School District, according to Brian Sarvis, Interim Superintendent at CUSD. While Stevens will certainly be missed in Carpinteria, her departure points to the difficulty the district has had in recruiting new school bus drivers in recent years. Vacancies in the drivers’ pool forced Stevens to step in and pick up a route, with a predictable impact on her ability to supervise other drivers.

CUSD School Board President Andy Sheaffer acknowledged that Stevens “can’t do her job effectively while driving,” but noted that the district’s hometo-school mandate means, “we have to provide transportation services to our students.” These services extend to Gobernador Canyon and Rincon on the east end of the district, and as far as Summerland to the west. Students requiring special services are also bussed to Santa Barbara.

“We spend more money on transportation

than we’re funded for,” Sheaffer said. The board has “discussed trying to cut back (on expenses),” Sheaffer noted, “but it’s not possible due to the mandate.”

Sarvis also noted that school transportation expenses have an effect on the district’s budget, but he added, “We expect to be successful in finding good, qualified people to become drivers.”

Despite purchasing three new buses in the last two years, having to hire drivers from transportation contractors such as Student Transportation of America, Inc., forces the district to pay more than it would if qualified drivers were hired locally.

To that end, the district is actively seeking drivers as well as a new Transportation Supervisor, who will also need to drive one of the routes. “Maybe there is a retired guy out there,” Sheaffer said, “who has the qualifications to drive a bus four or five hours a day.” He continued, “That would be good for the district… good for everybody.”

California Avocado Festival Celebrating 30 Years with the Carpinteria Community

The California Avocado Festival’s all volunteer Board of Directors and Board President, Gary Dobbins, wish to thank the citizens of the Community of Carpinteria for bestowing upon our festival guests the Carpinteria Charm The City and it’s community members all help us create a venue for participating Non-Profit groups and local business owners to raise funds for their respective initiatives.

In addition, the revenue generated from the city’s bed tax and sales tax during the festival weekend helps keep our city’s coffers full, which in turn helps the city maintain our one-of-a-kind home.

Other hard workers who deserve recognition include our Public Works Department, the Sheriff Department, S.M.A.R.T. and its employ ees, and our Security team for creating a safe environment for our guests and community members to enjoy, as well as the CVCC volunteers that staff our Beer Booths which generate over $5,000 per year in scholarship funds through the tips alone.

This festival would not be possible without the generous support of our sponsors, including over 20 that are classified as in-kind donations.

As a non-profit festival, we rely on the support of our sponsors and community members. So after 30 years of success, we would like to thank you for your contributions.

Obituary

Beverly J. Todd 6/17/1933 - 10/21/2016

Beverly J. Todd, loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister and aunt, passed peacefully surrounded by her three daughters on Oct. 21, 2016 in Santa Barbara, Calif. at the age of 83.

Beverly is predeceased by her loving husband of 50 years, Jesse Todd, her parents, Milton and Dorothy VandeVort, and step-daughter, Brenda Kay Feist (Dave).

She is survived by a son, Michael Todd (Debbie) of Tacoma, Wash. and daughters, Patricia Clem and Terrie Thurston,

both of Carpinteria, Calif.; and Elizabeth Inman (Michael) of Sumner, Wash.; two sisters, Bette Arndt and Myrna Schneider; a brother, Charles VandeVort; 11 grandchildren, 13 great-grandchildren, numerous nieces and nephews; and three sisters-in-law and a brother-in-law who considered Beverly a cherished “sister” rather than a sister-in-law.

Beverly spent most of her years growing up in Tacoma, Wash. where she met and married Jesse in 1956, and in 2010 she moved to Santa Barbara. She had an infectious smile, a giving heart and a love of family gatherings. Beverly had a passion for animals, enjoyed cooking, gardening, genealogy, camping and cross country traveling with her soulmate Jesse and their beloved dog Ginger. She will be laid to rest with Jesse in Sumner, Wash. followed by a celebration of her life in early December. The family would like to thank all the caregivers at the Alto Lucero Transitional Care facility in Santa Barbara, and all the Visiting Nurse & Hospice Care staff for their loving care and support. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the Visiting Nurse and Hospice Care Foundation in Santa Barbara, (vnhcsb. org), or the Tacoma Humane Society in memory of Beverly.

Council passes pot regulations ahead of Prop 64

By Lea Boyd Anticipating the passage of Proposition 64, the Carpinteria City Council voted 4-1 on Oct. 24 for an emergency ordinance to restrict the recreational use and personal cultivation of marijuana that would become legal on Nov. 9.

The city’s restrictions add to those detailed in the state proposition—the Control, Regulate and Tax Adult Use of Marijuana Act (AUMA)—and apply exclusively to personal marijuana growing and use. Each residence will be allowed up to six marijuana plants under the terms of the AUMA. Commercial legalization is not expected to take effect until 2018 when the state has a structure in place for taxing and licensing.

City Manager Dave Durflinger described the city’s restrictions, which will only take effect if a majority of voters approve Prop 64, as a “light touch.” He said, “We don’t want to create a large regulatory structure.”

The council also passed the first reading of new code that will replace the emergency ordinance upon implementation. Most of the city’s additional regulation is aimed at restricting marijuana access by youth. Plants would need to be grown in the backyard and hidden from public view. The legal age to grow and use marijuana would be 21, per state law.

New regulations would preclude cultivation or use within 600 feet of a school, daycare center or youth center in order to reduce the potential for nuisances that impact children. Carpinteria High School

staff and residents near local nurseries have complained to the city about odors and crime potential generated by marijuana cultivation in greenhouses just outside city limits.

Marijuana cultivation would be prohibited in apartments and condominiums under the new city regulations due to the limited outdoor space associated with these types of residences. Without room for a buffer between neighbors, there is greater potential for negative impacts on nearby residents. That restriction alone will preclude cultivation in a significant portion of Carpinteria.

Mayor Gregg Carty, who had advocated for restrictions that would discourage underage marijuana use, said he supported city staff’s proposed regulations, which he characterized as “pretty light.”

Councilman Al Clark voted against the ordinances, citing a desire for a more scientific basis to identify nuisances related to marijuana growing or use. He said, “I think the public nuisance thing at this point is too subjective.” Clark noted that in Denver, where voters approved recreational marijuana use in 2012, air quality measurements and a threshold of multiple complaints are used to qualify a nuisance.

Violations to the city’s marijuana regulations could result in fines of $100 for the first violation and up to $500 for subsequent violations. Penalties for violating provisions of the AUMA range from community service and drug counseling to imprisonment and fines for major offenses.

Prop 64 says...

CITY OF CARPINTERIA 5775 CARPINTERIA AVENUE, CARPINTERIA, CA 93013 (805) 684-5405 PUBLIC NOTICE VACANCY ON COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) COMMITTEE POSITION: Committee Member NUMBER AND TERM OF VACANCY: Three, 4-year terms from 12/1/2016 to 12/1/2020 MEETING FREQUENCY: The committee meets on an as needed basis at City Hall, 5775 Carpinteria Avenue, Carpinteria.

Applications are available at the City Clerk’s Office, City Hall or may be downloaded from the City’s website and navigating to the City Clerk’s page at www.carpinteria.ca.us. Applications must be submitted no later than November 22, 2016, to the City Clerk’s Office at 5775 Carpinteria Avenue. For additional information, please contact the City Clerk at (805) 684-5405, ext. 403.

Proposition 64, the Control, Regulate and Tax Adult Use of Marijuana Act (AUMA), is on the Nov. 8 ballot. If the state proposition passes, it will immediately allow personal use and cultivation of marijuana with several restrictions. The major restrictions are as follows: • No person under 21 years of age may engage in any activities related to use and cultivation of marijuana, including possession of marijuana.

• No person may provide or give marijuana to a person under 21 years of age.

• No person may cultivate, process or possess more than six living marijuana plants within a single residence or upon the grounds of the residence at one time.

• The living marijuana plants and any marijuana produced from the plants in excess of 28.5 grams (1 ounce) must be kept within the person’s private residence or grounds of the residence, must be kept in a locked space, and must not be visible by normal unaided vision from a public place.

• No person may smoke or ingest marijuana or marijuana products in any public place.

• No person may smoke marijuana or marijuana products in a location where smoking tobacco is prohibited.

• No person may smoke marijuana or marijuana products within 1,000 feet of a school, daycare center, or youth center while children are present, except in or upon the grounds of a private residence if such smoking is not detectable by others on the grounds of the school, day care center or youth center when children are present.

• No person may possess, smoke or ingest marijuana or marijuana products in or upon the grounds of a school, day care center, or youth center while children are present.

City of Carpinteria adds...

The Carpinteria City Council voted to implement an emergency ordinance and passed the first reading of a city code change to further restrict personal marijuana use and cultivation to address concerns specific to Carpinteria.

These ordinances will only be implemented if Proposition 64 passes.

• Outdoor and indoor cultivation will be prohibited within 600 feet of schools, daycare centers and youth centers.

• Outdoor cultivation will be restricted to rear yards and there can be no exterior evidence of cultivation from a public place.

• Outdoor cultivation must be located within building setbacks to provide a buffer for neighbors.

• Outdoor cultivation will be prohibited in condominiums or apartments due to lack of buffer potential in small yards or patios.

• Outdoor cultivation will be prohibited in the common areas of condominiums or apartments.

• Areas used for cultivation must comply with all applicable building standards.

Firefighters save the day

On the evening of Tuesday, Oct. 18, the CSFD responded to a fire in Summerland that threatened the existence of our beautiful community. Their coordinated effort with firefighters from Montecito, Santa Barbara City, Santa Barbara County and Ventura County fire departments saved Summerland. In daunting winds creating incredibly adverse conditions, the fire was contained to a single home. Our entire community was spared a great tragedy.

It is time to build a new, seismically safe and efficient station for our firefighters in Summerland. The recent study by Citygate Associates recommended that the firemen be moved out of the existing station to temporary quarters immediately because of the unsafe and inadequate condition of our facility. Our community must come together to provide stations for our firefighters that are up to current building codes. This will enhance our community’s safety, property values and quality of life. Our firemen deserve the proper tools to do their work. Thank you again firefighters!

Bunting for water board

My wife and I have lived in Carpinteria for over 31 years. During the years we have been here, we have grown to love and cherish this wonderful city. It was only a short time after getting settled into life in Carpinteria that we became aware of how precious water is in Carpinteria Valley and the challenges the city was facing in obtaining and keeping water for the use of everyone living and visiting here.

I met Steve Bunting and came to know him as a man who deeply cares about our way of life here. He is a man who understands our water issues and will protect Carpinteria citizens and their water needs. Steve is smart, level headed and does his homework in regards to water issues. I am writing to tell people that I will be voting for Steve Bunting for a seat on the Carpinteria Valley Water Board in the election on Nov. 8. I am confident that Steve will serve our community with the keen insights and unselfish commitment that he has always shown for the city of Carpinteria, that he dearly loves.

Rogelio also volunteered hundreds of hours for Saint Joseph’s Church with social and religious programs.

Rogelio’s education and experience is impressive! Rogelio Delgado is the right candidate for the community. I have seen his effort and determination in his campaign. He is always moving forward.

His dream is to represent each child in the school district and be his or her voice on the board. Parents, teachers, students have the right to express their concerns.

Rogelio Delgado is the board member who will listen to you in school board meetings, coffee shops, parks. He would show up at schools to see how teachers teach and what students learn. Rogelio Delgado needs your vote, and you need his leadership.

Please continue supporting those pivotal organizations. We all have one goal: our children’s education!

Our community knows Gary as a dedicated public servant, skilled at the intricacies of the budget process, a proven manager of our Superior Court of 300 employees and an expert in cost-intensive capital projects and facilities planning. I believe, as do many others, Gary is the most qualified candidate to run for school board in decades. But Gary is much more than the former successful Superior Court Executive Officer.

Gary has never sought public recognition for his efforts. But in this election it is important our community knows what Gary has done for our schools—not with slogans or mottos, but with actual handson support. Whether Gary is driving a van for the varsity golf team, making a generous contribution to the girls softball program, serving on the Measure U committee or sponsoring a Teacher Appreciation lunch, he has been there for CUSD. He has “walked the walk” for our school district. Gary’s focus has been on how he could help our diverse student body, support the teachers and staff and what he could do to make a positive contribution to our district. Gary has the respect of teachers and staff because they know he has proven he is interested in their and the students’ welfare.

Gary is approachable, a good listener and an independent thinker. He would be proactive in solving CUSD issues after careful analysis whether in curriculum, labor, facilities or the budget. He believes in a collaborative approach, a philosophy that is much needed at CUSD at this time.

Please join me to bring a new vision and a new direction to our district by electing Gary Blair to our school board.

Disappointed in city’s dumped furniture response

As a resident of Carpinteria all my life, three weeks ago I came home from a short trip to find someone had dumped a sofa and chair across from our house on the curb. Whoever did this could have called Harrison & Sons for a pickup. I called the city and was told that it was our responsibility. However, the city did come

out to put cones around the dumped items—but that was all that was done.

We pay our taxes and take care of our yard, plus take care of the parkway that is between the curb and sidewalk that is city property. Why is it our responsibility to pick up someone else’s trash when it’s left on the city streets? I am more than disappointed in the city’s response to this incident. What would Carpinteria Beautiful think? Does this encourage more dumping and neighbors putting free stuff in their front yards, because of poor reaction by the city?

Rogelio’s her man for A vote for the Delgado-Blair ticket school board A change in the Carpinteria School

Please vote Nov. 8. Two seats are available in the school board race. Rogelio Delgado considers it a great honor and privilege to run for a seat. The board needs his leadership and bilingualism. No other board member can offer the same. Rogelio brings his teaching experience and tough real estate negotiating skills to his candidacy as well.

Delgado asks for your vote to represent your child from kindergarten to high school with the proper academic curriculum. Delgado is your common man, caring about families, well known in the community and always going the extra mile guiding people thorough daily life problems and tribulations.

Ask the Candidates

Question: The City Council recently approved another step toward the development of a small inn and restaurant on Linden Avenue at the Amtrak Station parking lot. The city stands to raise significant revenues through the lease and bed tax collected from an inn, but some concerns have been raised about new development during a drought and the role of city government in commercial enterprise. How do you feel about developing an inn in that location?

Wade Nomura

Carpinteria City Council

If the City of Carpinteria were a body, its hardworking departments would be the hands while the City Council would be the decision-making brain. In this year’s election, Carpinterians will votein two councilmembers from among the three candidates competing for the seats. Wade Nomura and Fred Shaw have served for four years and hope to serve another four. Bob Franco has thrown his hat in the ring in pursuit of a seat as well.

Ask the Candidates continues this week with a Q&A aimed at helping readers make an informed decision on Election Day. To see earlier installments of Ask the Candidates, visit coastalview.com.

The possibility of developing an inn at Linden and the Amtrak Station has been around for some time now. The original station was demolished years ago, and many considered it a major part of Carpinteria’s history. The lofts on Palm Avenue are examples of the theme that reflects this same era. With the City owning the property, an option has been presented to develop this site as a hotel in the theme of the original station. The recent acquisition of the property along the south side of the railroad tracks has created an opportunity to have parking relocated to the beach side of the tracks, which will favor the beachgoers.

Though there is a potential to raise significant revenues and an amenity that would benefit the City, there are also concerns regarding this project. Water is one of the issues as we add another year of limited rainfall. The complexities on how the city will not create competition being the landlord of this inn, is another concern. The City is not in a position to enter into commercial enterprise and should never be in a position to compete with other hotel businesses within the City.

The City has invested in a feasibility study to evaluate the potential of this project, with the next step being to address issues such as water consumption and unfair commercial enterprise. Overall, I like the concept, however, I could not support the project if the mentioned issues are not addressed and resolved.

Bob “Budge” Franco

The train station development plan takes me back to a happy time. As children we used to love to play at the train depot and watch the trains go by. I was saddened when it was torn down because we lost a piece of our history.

When this new plan was announced I was sort of excited because it brought back many wonderful childhood memories.

I envisioned it as an eclectic downtown hub where people can meet and children can play. A hotel and restaurant is just the right fit for that area. I can see people arriving by train, staying at the hotel and walking to the beach or downtown.

But that was then, this is now. How can we build such a project with limited sources of water? We are already asking our community to conserve more and more, which is affecting the quality of our lives, so to construct such a project at this time is just wrong. The fact that just one councilman voted no indicates to me just how out of touch some councilmen are because there is just no water to support this untimely project and to spend thousands of dollars for a feasibility study is not in our best interest. Until we develop permanent, affordable sources of water, projects such as these should be deferred, and a building moratorium put in place until we can reduce the unsustainable strain to our groundwater. Historically, California has always used its groundwater to survive, never to expand.

Fred Shaw

I believe we need to proceed cautiously but also prepare for the future.

The City now owns the property on both sides of the railroad tracks from Linden to Holly, purchased at a favorable price. One conceptual plan, possibly including an inn, could create an extension of the boardwalk path currently between Tomol Park and the State Beach campground. Also, a new railroad under-crossing at Holly for pedestrians and cyclists would make beach and school routes safer.

These improvements would require financing, mostly through general fund dollars and leveraged grants. Leveraged grants have been key elements in the development of the Seal Fountain, El Carro Park and the new bridge over Carpinteria Creek. Private and public partnerships are often used by city planners to provide or enhance amenities that serve residents and visitors, such as the Friends of the Library building. Council will be mindful of any impacts on current businesses.

The City has no interest in running a commercial enterprise.

Yes, we are in a serious drought. Hopefully this will be remedied by nature and new water capturing methods in the future so this is a good time to study city enhancements at the conceptual level. All building must be scrutinized with water availability as a key factor, and that will be the case with this project. In fact there are many approval steps with significant public input throughout the process.

I will continue to listen to your ideas and suggestions to find solutions for the issues affecting our beautiful city.

Question: CVWD has been called two water districts in one. About half its water is sold to agricultural customers at a reduced rate, while the other half is used by residential and commercial customers. The expense required to meet drinking water standards is largely borne by the municipal customers. Balancing the two customer bases and their separate rate structures has been controversial at times. Do you think it is important to maintain reduced rates for ag customers? Why or why not?

Carpinteria Valley Water District

Water is always a hot topic in Carpinteria, and it has grown even hotter as drought years pile up and each predicted El Niño disappoints. This year voters will choose two directors for the Carpinteria Valley Water District. Three candidates, including incumbent Polly Holcombe, vie for two seats—Holcombe’s and that of retiring longtime director June Van Wingerden.

Coastal View News’ Ask the Candidates continues for the fourth week with candidate opinions on how to best manage water in Carpinteria. For earlier installments of the series, visit coastalview.com.

Polly Holcombe

Yes. Rates are set in accordance with cost of serving water to a class of user. Ag customers pay a larger fixed charge because their meters are typically larger, but pay a lower unit of water charge than other classes of water users.

This ag per unit water charge rate is less than residential or commercial water rates because they don’t pay for drinking water treatment related cost. The reason

for this is because they don’t need treated drinking water to irrigate their crops, which goes back to the two distinct water districts being under one and the need to maintain a balance.

Ag customers have a high sensitivity to rates because they use so much water, nearly half of annual district water sales.

In 1993 after the last drought when rates were increased to pay for the State Water project, we lost about 1000 AF of ag sales because either farmers left town or drilled their own wells. Those lost revenues had to be generated from the rest of the remaining rate payers. During rate setting the district staff, along with myself, work diligently within constraints of the Prop 218 law to set rates in a fair and balanced approach.

Question: The relationship between the school board and the teachers union recently slipped to its lowest level in decades—maybe ever. Contract negotiations have been locked in impasse for months, and only through mediation is a resolution now close. The board’s late August decision to release Superintendent Micheline Miglis drew the ire of many teachers who praised Miglis’ leadership.

What would you do to mend the relationship with teachers?

Editor’s note: The school board ratified a tentative contract agreement between the district and the teachers union on Oct. 25. For details, see story on page 13.

Gary Blair

Carpinteria Unified School District

Decisions that affect kids provoke high passion and strong opinions. As a result, school board members can be lauded as champions or criticized as villains. This year’s three candidates for school board are fresh faces to the challenges now facing the CUSD. Incumbents Terry Hickey Banks, a boardmember since 1995, and Alicia Jacobsen, who was appointed to replace Boardmember Alison Livett a year ago, are not seeking re-election.

Ask the Candidates launched on Oct. 6 with an introduction to each candidate followed weekly by a three-part Q&A. Past installments of Ask the Candidates are available at coastalview.com.

Case Van Wingerden

The residential water use customer in the Carpinteria Valley Water District expects fairly priced, safe and dependable water for their domestic use.

The growers in the Carpinteria Valley Water district that rely on the district for their irrigation water, instead of their own agricultural water wells, need affordable irrigation water in order to remain viable. Keeping our growers in the valley is the only way to sustain the

Maureen Foley Claffey

Rogelio Delgado

The relationship between the school board on one hand, and the union and teachers on the other hand, has been defined primarily by the annual collective bargaining process which has been hard fought. This is not how the relationship between the board and our teachers should be defined.

The first order of business is to carefully recruit and hire a new superintendent. The new hire will need to possess a broad set of skills, which includes being a team builder, an excellent communicator, and someone who treats everyone with equal dignity and respect. This includes teachers, employees, board members, parents, students and community members. The attitude and personality of the superintendent are critically important to re-shaping the relationship.

I will advocate the creation of a Labor Management Committee (LMC) to discuss issues and concerns throughout the year which are not items that are negotiated through the collective bargaining process. I created a LMC when I was the Chief Administrator of the Superior Court and it worked exceptionally well to maintain a harmonious relationship between union representatives and management representatives. It was an effective communications device that brought people together to discuss issues such as operations and facilities. The LMC discussed such topics as training, implementation of new software systems, internal transfers, impacts of new legislation, etc. It was also very effective in dispelling rumors.

The LMC brings people together instead of dividing them. I have a new vision to re-define the board-teacher relationship by moving it in this new direction.

Unless there is an immediate change in philosophy between the board and the union, Carpinteria is going to continue down the road towards fiscal mismanagement. Right now, due to the legal fees, the buyout, interim superintendent salary and a search for a new superintendent, the district is leaking hundreds of thousands of dollars, unnecessarily.

A new era of truth and reconciliation is called for, and I bring the required skills to the job at hand.

As a candidate running independently, not endorsed by the teacher’s union, I can bridge the divide. I am not beholden to the union, when it comes to making decisions that are right for students, teachers, and the community at large.

All the parties involved, and especially teachers, want respect, empathy and support. My husband, James Claffey, teaches at Santa Barbara High School. At the end of his long day lecturing, planning, grading and counseling students, he does not talk to me about his pay stub. He talks about the challenges of teaching a suicidal or homeless student. I saw the same need for appreciation when my mom, Mary Foley, taught at Summerland and Main schools. At the same time, I saw my dad, Paul Foley, work tirelessly, as an unpaid volunteer, on the CUSD school board, sacrificing hours to help steer the schools through rough financial waters.

The problem is a fundamental lack of cooperation and I will work with teachers, the union and other board members, altogether, to bring that back.

It is a fact that there has been tension between the union and the school board over the years. Transparency is what the community deserves in every decision made by the board, except items protected by law. It seems that a contract agreement has been reached between the union and the district. There is every expectation that it will be ratified at the Oct. 25 board meeting. This should provide some breathing in regard to historically contentious negotiations around compensation and benefits.

The board’s impromptu release of Superintendent Micheline Miglis, citing differences in vision and philosophy, changed the landscape at CUSD. In less than a month the school board has returned the district to the same unproductive posture it previously supported. The best opportunity to change the relationship to a positive one is to change the composition of the board.

The team of Rogelio Delgado and Gary Blair are deeply committed to this goal.

We are active listeners who will work collaboratively with all stakeholders.

agricultural culture and heritage of the Carpinteria Valley.

It is the responsibility of the Carpinteria Valley Water District’s board and management to make sure that the domestic water use, and agricultural water use, is priced fairly. This goal has been met by the district board and management both in the past and present when appropriate.

Domestic, commercial and agricultural users of district water, and growers that rely on their own agriculture wells for irrigation water, are expected to plan their water needs in a responsible and sustainable manner.

We all share the same water basin, so we need to work together to protect this incredible resource for present and future generations.

Steve Bunting

at all times and at a fair price. I don’t know anyone who thinks the price of water should go up, but it seems to be inevitable that it will always be more expensive. Working with farmers to help maintain and upgrade our infrastructure should be a priority. There are hundreds of wells in Carpinteria Valley, and only a small percent of them belong to the water district. Working with all elements of the community, not pitting one group against the other, is how I believe the Water Board should operate.

Election Day is Tuesday, November 8

Water rights are enshrined in law and it is important to work with farmers to protect our common interests.

As a district we should work with customers to ensure an adequate, high quality supply of water

Lou Grant Auction celebrates longtime director Photos by Annette sAmArin

Ellen Stoddard is in the midst of her 28th year as director of Lou Grant Parent-Child Workshop and has announced that this year will be her last. As such, the annual auction and garden party held on Oct. 23 meant more than ever to the parents, family and other school supporters in attendance.

Relied upon to raise a significant portion of the school’s annual operating budget, the auction always requires hundreds of parent hours to execute. This year’s returned its longtime home, a Padaro Lane estate where guests mixed and mingled on a grassy lawn with the ocean lapping at the shore a stone’s throw away. Highlights included a fierce live auction battle for a quilt handmade by Stoddard that the Olvera family ended with a $3,000 bid. A $5,000 scholarship drive goal was surpassed in short order when bid numbers shot up in support of families with limited means and a total of $8,000 was raised.

Teachers and district finally reach contract agreement

By Lea Boyd

After months of bitter negotiations, Carpinteria Unified School District and its teachers union have reached a tentative contract agreement that spreads a 4 percent salary raise over three years with additional boosts dependent on property tax revenues. Following ratification by the teachers union, the Board of Education ratified the agreement at its Oct. 25 meeting.

“The board had it right all along,” announced Interim Superintendent Brian Sarvis at the meeting. “(Boardmembers) knew what the budget could bear and what the budget could not.”

By arriving at a three-year agreement, the district ends an annual cycle of acrimonious negotiations that dead-ended in impasse last summer for the first time in decades. Impasse is a legal phase of bargaining in which both sides acknowledge that no middle ground can be found.

After that point, the two sides entered a fact-finding phase, which culminated in a three-person panel made up of a district representative, a union representative and a “neutral party” offering a recommendation after examining the facts presented by each side.

Union President Jay Hotchner said that the contract represents “further sacrifice by district employees.” He said that teachers agreed to accept the district’s “hyper-conservative narrative” in order to avoid the impact a district-wide strike would have had on teaching, learning and the community.

One major victory for staff, Hotchner

said, was the inclusion of a long-sought safety article in the teacher contract. The additional salary increase that would come if property tax revenues exceed expectations is also a win, Hotchner said, because the district regularly projects less property tax income than it receives.

Sarvis said that by spreading the raise over three years—1 percent in April 2016, 2 percent in April 2017 and 1 percent in April 2018—the district will be able to make advance budgetary adjustments in order to maintain the 10 percent reserve dictated by board policy.

The fact-finding session started on Sept. 27 and continued through the night until 2:30 on morning of Sept. 28. The school district waited to ratify the agreement until the result of the teachers’ vote was announced.

Boardmember Michelle Robertson presented a statement at this week’s meeting.

She said that the community had unfortunately been dragged into the struggle between the district and the union over the last year. Though each side had the best of intentions, both sides could have modeled civility better for the good of the students, she said. Now that a deal has been reached, she hopes trust can be rebuilt between the district and its staff, and that everyone can focus on doing what’s best for students.

Concrete repair to continue on Linden The third phase of concrete repair on Linden Avenue was approved by the City Council on the evening of Oct. 24. Triggered by damage done by the shallow root systems of tipuana trees, the third phase will remove trees and repair warped and cracked sidewalks and curbs at 606, 865 and 790 Linden Ave. The $43,900 cost of repairs will be paid for with Measure A funds. Ginko biloba trees will replace the tipuanas.

“We’ll keep bringing these phases to you until we work our way through it,” Public Works Director Charlie Ebeling told the council.

Then during halftime of the homecoming football game on Oct. 21, Jenny Sanchez-Maya was crowned the 2016 Homecoming Queen.

Truax competed against a surplus of talent on the stage at Carpinteria Middle School, where eight local teens sought the title of Mr. Warrior. Judges chose just one Mr. Warrior from a diverse array of contestants—each nominated by a sports team or extracurricular club and challenged to complete both a talent and interview portion of the event.

Truax’s impressive high school resume includes participation in tennis, cross country, Improv Club, Junior Statesmen of America, Swing Club, Muses, Choir, Yearbook and Spanish Club. According to his Mr. Warrior bio, “In ten years, Sam pictures himself working in some kind of math related job with fluency in three languages.”

Preheat your grill on medium high heat (400 to 450 degrees) for about 10 minutes.

Rams shoot down Owls

BY ASSISTANT COACH DAVE SOTO

Cate’s football team won its third consecutive game on Oct. 22 when it took down Laguna Blanca, 42-8. The Cate scoring started early, as senior Henry Dawson took the first pass of the game to the end zone on his first interception. The Rams found the end zone again when sophomore Jack Deardorff connected with junior Will Bowlin for a scoring pass. Deardorff capped the first half with a nice scramble and a 20-yard toss to junior Ryder Dinning. Senior Pierce Lundt caught a 27-yard throw from Deardorff in the third quarter. The Rams final two scores came on a three-yard run from Lundt and 30-yard run from sophomore Drew Anastasio.

The Cate defense was lights out all game, with junior Luke Beckmen, sophomore Carson Williams and senior Chase McCaw making big plays on the afternoon.

Senior Mateo Luca-Lion had a fumble recovery, and junior Andy McCarg had an interception.

This was a nice Family Weekend win for us. We played well when we had to, and I’m proud of the energy we showed in the second half. Hopefully we can ride that momentum into our final regular season game next week.

The Rams head to Ojai to take on Thacher on Saturday, Oct. 29 with kick-off at 3 p.m.

Warriors fall in final minutes to Fillmore

Last Friday’s homecoming football game ended in heartbreak for the Warriors, who maintained a lead through most of the battle but fell to Fillmore High School 28-24 in the last quarter. CHS lit up the scoreboard first with a Vance Keiser touchdown, and consistently stepped ahead after Fillmore’s two score-tying touchdowns.

Warrior scorers were Keiser, Jacob Garside, Mikey Garibay and Brian Garcia. But the win slipped through the Warriors’ fingers in the final moments when Fillmore’s George Tarango scored on a pass by Christian Cisneros.

Sophomore Vance Keiser notched the night’s first touchdown along with passing for 107 on the night.

In singles, Kathryn Blair beat the Rams number-three player. In doubles, the Warriors other point came from Athena Cuellar/ Josie Gordon who were down 1-4, 0-40; but came back to win 7-5. “Overall, we had some absolutely amazing points by all of our players (on both teams),” said Carpinteria coach Charles Bryant. “Cate is a very strong and deep team and just does not make too many mistakes, and that showed today.” Carpinteria finishes the season 9-10 overall and 0-8 in the league.

But Malibu scored four in the third quarter to Carpinteria’s zero to build an 11-5 lead. The Warriors shut down the Sharks themselves in the final quarter, but the two goals they tallied weren’t enough to catch Malibu during the home defeat.

The most aesthetically driven CVN

A TRAINER’S JOURNAL ROB BURKE Remember when looking good came without effort? Remember when feeling good was the shallow result of looking good? For those who will join me in reminiscing about the decade known as our 20s, I can remember being guaranteed a body that would defy gravity—and I didn’t have to work at it.

From a scientific standpoint, the reality is that we are nothing more than groupings of carbon molecules degrading until half-lives becomes exponentially incalculable one decade at a time.

So at what point in our lives are we nothing more than the carbonic walking dead marching into aesthetic inferiority?

When do we accept our demise and stop trying to turn back the hands of time? Is it when I’m standing in an elevator comparing my carbon molecules to those of a skateboard-toting zygote?

We all want to ensure that our lives are productive and fruitful, and you can call me shallow with bouts of vapid insecurity, but I want to look good too. Heck, I’ve even chosen a profession where I’m making a living off of the proverbial Fountain of Youth, known as the gym—I drink from it and bathe in it daily. I could have been like Juan Ponce de Leon who gave up his search for eternal youth when he found Florida, but for me, landing in Carpinteria and supporting our community from a wellness perspective only makes me want to do more like counter the effects of gravity by lifting heavy objects.

I know my purpose in life; I am to provide the tools to create a vital community, to keep us all moving and contributing to a society in a positive and exemplary way.

Those of us in our 50s and beyond should be seen as examples of vibrancy rather than future consumers of walkers and life insurance. I want my existence to be judged from an age-agnostic position at the top of the gold medal pedestal. I want to relate more to the movie “Cocoon,” rather than “The Golden Girls.” (Ha ha, you youngsters have no memory of “Cocoon” because, um, well, you weren’t born yet. But if you picture a bunch of us oldsters running marathons, hiking the Pacific Trail, swimming in open water or power-lifting three times our weight, then you get the idea of how we plan to conquer our way to the aesthetically driven elite.)

That reminds me. You might recall that

I’m participating in a little competition at my gym called “The Most Aesthetically Pleasing.” This column actually inspired the goals of the competition: three guys representing our respective generations, working toward being judged and subsequently declared the “Most Aesthetically Pleasing” person in the gym. But despite the ego-centric title, our real and much bigger goal is to get into amazing condition to show that regardless of the generations we represent, we are all equal in our ability to maximize our appearance and wellness.

To be judged the “Most Aesthetically Pleasing” at the ripe old age of 55, I begin by working out. I lift weights. I teach and take spinning classes. I run. I stand more than I sit. I don’ just stay active; I am in a constant state of pushing my body beyond its limits! Extreme cellular breakdown resulting from high-intensity training actually leads to necessary conditions like improved bone density, cardio vascular efficiency and perhaps the greatest contributor to aesthetic superiority: a reduction to the body’s stress mechanisms resulting from a pinball-machine-like explosion of free radicals. These free radicals contribute to signaling DNA markers to begin producing cancer cells.

They show up on the skin as fissures and folds caused by sun damage. They contribute to micro-tears in the arterial walls, allowing cholesterol to stick and gather and begin the effects of circulatory inflammation.

Despite the shallow tenor of this topic, there is a serious side. We are at war with inflamation! This is a battle we can win while appearing healthy and youthful.

On Oct. 23, I joined a dozen or so people from my gym fighting the good fight to aesthetic fitness and ongoing wellness.

We participated in a program designed to reduce inflammation and promote superior health starting with a structured full-body “cleanse.” Now, mind you, I am the world’s biggest skeptic when it comes to systemic cleanses or supplements that purport to annihilate villainous invaders responsible for disease. But my participation was an easy sell once I saw what this program did for one of my clients, and after some research, I’m eager to see if I can report any positive effects to you in future columns.

Stay tuned for more and my complete and unbiased review as I continue my quest for the “Most Aesthetically Pleasing.”

Reckless

It’s a Gift That Gives Both Ways Consider a Gift Annuity

On Oct. 12 at approximately 11:30 p.m., a Sheriff’s deputy on uniformed patrol in a marked vehicle was conducting a premises check of a shopping plaza on Casitas Pass Road and observed a man driving a Lexus sedan at a high rate of speed through the parking lot, “with wanton disregard for any pedestrians in the area.” The deputy noted that there were “a moderate number of transients walking around as well as late night shoppers” at the grocery and drug stores. The man parked his vehicle, got out and had to use the planter boxes and the wall of the building to steady himself. As the man entered the grocery store the deputy announced himself, but had to tell the man to stop three times.

When the deputy made contact with the man he smelled an “overwhelming odor of alcohol,” and observed several empty bottles of Samuel Adams beer in the front and back seats of the man’s vehicle. The deputy conducted a field sobriety test and arrested the man for drunk and reckless driving based on his observations. The man refused to provide breath or blood samples to the deputy, who then requested a blood draw search warrant via email from the Honorable Judge Hill of Santa Barbara Superior Court. The warrant was authorized and the man transported to the Carpinteria Substation before being booked in to Santa Barbara County Jail. A dog was in the man’s car and was taken to the Carpinteria Animal Control yard.

On Oct. 13 at approximately 11:40 p.m., deputies were dispatched to a residence on Ogan Road to investigate a disturbance. En route, county dispatch informed the deputies that the caller stated that the man involved in the disturbance was threatening to kill her and that he had a gun. Upon arriving, the deputies observed a male subject several houses away standing next to a Ford Mustang and determined that that he was involved in the disturbance. Based on the nature of the call, deputies searched the man for weapons but did not find any. When a deputy contacted the woman who was involved in the disturbance, she offered her cell phone for the deputy to review the text messages that she had received from the man. After reviewing several messages regarding their relationship “or lack thereof,” the deputy determined that there were no threatening messages from the man, and that the woman had been “rambling for several hours over the same subjects.”

The deputy then spoke with the man again and while speaking with him, noticed that the front license plate of

his vehicle did not match the rear plate.

Based on a report from the DMV, the front, personalized plate was the one assigned to the vehicle, while the rear plate belonged to a Toyota that was designated non-operational. The man stated that his mother had recently purchased the vehicle from a towing company in Santa Barbara, but could not clarify where the rear plate had come from. “Based on the evidence and statements,” the deputy noted, “I suspected (name withheld) placed the rear license plate on the vehicle to defraud the DMV of registration fees as well as to elude detection by law enforcement.” The man was then arrested and booked in to Santa Barbara County Jail.

Cocaine and an 18-pack

On Oct. 15 at approximately 3:25 a.m., Sheriff’s deputies in a marked patrol vehicle observed a Mercedes Benz parked in the lot of Viola Fields on Carpinteria Avenue. After placing the Sheriff’s vehicle’s spotlight on the parked car, a deputy approached the Mercedes and a male subject rolled down the window. A strong odor of marijuana emanated from the parked car and the deputy saw an 18-pack of Modelo cans of beer on the backseat. A young woman was in the passenger seat. Due to the smell of marijuana and the beer, and the fact that both subjects were 18 years old (but not 21), the deputy advised the male driver that he was going to search the vehicle, and asked him if he was going to find anything illegal inside. The man said he had cocaine in the center console.

Placing the man in handcuffs and then searching him, the deputy found a rolled $100 bill in his pocket and asked him if that was what he used to snort cocaine.

The man said that it was. The deputy found approximately one gram of cocaine in the vehicle. Deputies left the man’s car at his request, then transported him to Santa Barbara County Jail. The woman was intoxicated, but deputies allowed her to call a cousin who came and “took custody of her.”

A girl’s bike

A 67-year-old man took a bike belonging to a 17-year-old girl while she was visiting her sister inside a coffee shop on Linden Avenue on Oct. 16. She told her family that her bike had been taken, but

they did not make a police report. The following day, at approximately 4:45 p.m., the man brought the bike to the coffee shop on Linden Avenue, returned it to the girl and asked her for $5 for having cleaned it. The girl’s father confronted the man and “explained his disapproval of (name withheld’s) actions,” a deputy noted. The man explained to the girl’s father that he had taken the bike (which had not been locked) to prevent another man from stealing it. The girl’s father told the man to stay away from his daughters and called law enforcement. A deputy reported that the girl’s father was not concerned about the bicycle, but that his main concern was with the man’s bizarre behavior and preventing him from having further contact with his daughter.

The deputy then interviewed the man who had taken the bike. A records check revealed that the man was on Santa Barbara County Probation for possession of a dirk/dagger. No illegal items were found after a search of the man and his belongings. The man told the deputy that he lived in the Santa Barbara Harbor, but described a current transient lifestyle where he stays with various people in Carpinteria, though he could not provide any addresses of where he said that he stays. He also said that he had taken the bike the previous evening to prevent a known drug addict from taking it, and that he had only been joking when he asked for $5 for having cleaned the bike.

The deputy told the man that he was not to have any further contact with the girl under any circumstances, and the man replied that he wouldn’t recognize the girl if he saw her again anyway. Additionally, the deputy advised the man that his “best practice (would be) to avoid any contact with teenage girls and their bicycles or other property.” The deputy also noted that “The incident will be documented due to (the man’s) probation status and the suspicious nature of his behavior.”

CHRIS & LISA CULLEN I freely admit that I have been confused about all the different kinds of “marigolds”—that is, until today. Perhaps you too suffer from this malady.

There is a perennial Mexican days of ancient Rome when the use of safmarigold that is currently quite popular fron (the powdered stigmas of the exotic in low water gardens.

_________________________________ ORDINANCE NO. 712

AN URGENCY ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARPINTERIA, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING THE MUNICIPAL CODE BY ADDING CHAPTER 8.14, CULTIVATION OF NONMEDICAL MARIJUANA WHEREAS, Proposition 64, the Control, Regulate, and Tax Adult Use of Marijuana Act (“AUMA”), includes allowances for personal use and cultivation of nonmedical marijuana; and WHEREAS, if the AUMA is adopted by voters at the election of November 8, 2016, allowances for personal use and cultivation of nonmedical marijuana will go into effect immediately and such activities will be allowed by state law in the City of Carpinteria; and WHEREAS, the AUMA allows local governments, which includes the City of Carpinteria, to prohibit and/or regulate outdoor cultivation of nonmedical marijuana and regulate indoor cultivation of nonmedical marijuana; and WHEREAS, on October 10, 2016, the City Council considered a report on the AUMA that included information about potential impacts to the City from legalization of nonmedical marijuana and options for regulating cultivation of nonmedical marijuana for personal use, among other things; and WHEREAS, California Government Code Section 36937 provides that an urgency ordinance for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health or safety, containing a declaration of the facts constituting the urgency, and passed by a four-fifths vote of the city council, may take effect immediately; and WHEREAS, the City began receiving complaints on or about September 16, 2016 from area residents and Carpinteria High School staff about negative impacts related to marijuana cultivation operations occurring in the vicinity of the City, including complaints that marijuana odors were inundating the High School, safety concerns related to criminal activities and use of weapons to protect cultivation sites, and negative impacts on property values; and WHEREAS, if personal cultivation becomes widespread throughout the City, it is likely to present significant risks to public health and safety by creating and intensifying the same nuisance and safety issues complained about by area residents, if not reasonably regulated; and WHEREAS, standard ordinance adoption procedures require at least two public hearings and adoption at a regular meeting, while the City Council does not hold its next regular meeting until November 14; and WHEREAS, the potential negative impacts of nonmedical marijuana on City residents came to the City’s attention too late to adopt an ordinance that would take effect prior to the potential adoption of the AUMA by standard procedures; and WHEREAS, after deliberation, the City Council determined that should the AUMA become law and allowances for personal use and cultivation of nonmedical marijuana be established, that the public peace, health and safety in the City of Carpinteria would be at risk due to the potential for persons under the age of 21 attempting to gain access to marijuana at private homes and residential properties and the potential for the creation of public nuisances.

A whale of a good time

cVn

unpredictable wilderness chuck graham It was a real toss-up for who was more animated: the five hungry humpback whales lunge feeding off Pismo Beach, or Central California photographer and veteran kayak guide Vince Shay shooting them from his kayak. That was really saying something though, considering that Shay is about 5-foot, 6-inches, 165 pounds and several hundred tons of ravenous Cetacea were just 50-feet away.

To be honest I couldn’t help but get caught up in the feeding frenzy of massive humpbacks and hundreds of harbor porpoises, bellowing California sea lions, puppy-faced harbor seals and raucous seabirds circling around us. It was intoxicating while watching and photographing from the seat of a kayak a colossal bait ball being pursued by a good chunk of the local food chain.

“They’re coming back around again!” hollered an ebullient Shay. “It will go quiet and then they always come back.

You just have to show some patience.”

Shay would certainly know. He and wife Emily have owned Avila Beach Paddlesports since 2010, and the humpbacks first arrived in 2012, but went on hiatus and returned in greater numbers in 2015 and 2016, splitting time between Avila and Pismo Beach.

A longtime photographer, Shay surprisingly didn’t take a shot of the four humpbacks that fed only 50-feet from the Avila Pier in 2012. He did photograph, however, during the summer of 2015 when 17 humpbacks fed just 50-yards from shore with Shay spending many long hours on the lens while on board his kayak.

Shay thought of using a motorboat to get his shots as others were doing, but he opted for more intimate encounters from a kayak to avoid altering behavior and to let the marine mammals come to him if they chose. Shay studied the wildlife and their tendencies when a bait ball gathered. It was a strategy he was already familiar with from leading beginners on sit-on-top-kayak tours along the Central Coast frequented by harbor seals, sea lions, southern sea otters and dolphins just north of the Avila Pier.

“I look for signs,” continued Shay, who is also an excellent standup paddler. “It’s all about the bait and the birds for me. I stay in one central location and hope to get lucky.”

Shay works with a Canon 7D Mark I and Mark II and the flexibility of the Canon 100 – 400mm zoom lens. It is risky business every time he pulls his gear out of his Pelican case with a lens cloth always at the ready, but Shay is confident the humpbacks know where he is.

“I truly believe these animals are intelligent enough to know exactly where a boat or a kayaker is,” he said.

That’s not to say Shay hasn’t had his fair share of close encounters. He’s had humpbacks so close he could touch and smell them. He recalled one memorable encounter where a school of anchovies rose just beneath his boat. He had only a few seconds to put his gear away.

“I drew my feet in and my lens,” said Shay. “I got ready for impact for I knew

A humpback whale grabs an enormous mouthful of water. It will filter the water out through its baleen and enjoy a big gulp of baitfish.

Waterman Vince Shay steadies his lens while a bus-sized whale flips him the tail. the whale was going to lunge feed really close to me. It did! I could have touched it!

It wasn’t as violent as it seems. The feeding is relatively gentle creating a vortex of water down and not out.”

During the day I spent with Shay, we paddled over a mile offshore from Shell Beach, spending about five hours on glassy waters photographing five humpbacks off the Pismo Beach Pier. We counted multiple spouts, plumes of ocean mist wafting skyward. We watched for the dark, rippling water signifying the growing bait ball, while various seabirds like Heermann’s gulls and black-vented shearwaters swarmed all around us. At times the whales pushed the bait ball around us in a big loop with the rest of the food chain in hot pursuit.

Then, without warning, the lunge feeding commenced in unison with several humpbacks exploding out of the water simultaneously. All I could hear was our shutters going off before it was silent again and the ocean was calm.

Stop Your Pain & Numbness From

CVN goes Hawaiian

Duane and Janis Felender agree that the highlight of their recent trip to the Big Island of Hawaii was the epic viewing of lava flowing from the active Kilauea volcano. Along with 40 other exhilarated passengers and the Coastal View News, they could feel the heat as the lava sizzled into the sea less than 20 feet from the Lava One power catamaran. On Hawaii to attend a dear friend’s wedding, the Felenders also snorkeled with the turtles in Puako and elsewhere, visited Waipio Valley Overlook and hiked Pololu Valley to the black sand beach and back up (which nearly did them in). They caught mahi mahi and ono, enjoyed views of the Kohala Coast on horseback and visited Waimea Farmer’s Markets multiple times during their two-week stay with sister Tracey and hubby Jim, who have lived on Hawaii since 2010. All the green and rain they saw, and the sweet white pineapple they discovered, was a shot in the arm before returning home to Carpinteria.

Reef pass reading in Tahiti

There is only one major road on the island of Mo’orea in Tahiti. Built on the narrow belt of level ground that lies between lagoons and steep volcanic mountains, the two-lane road has a speed limit of 25 mph, which seems excessive in some places according to Mike Millan, who recently visited with a copy of CVN. Much of Mo’orea is uninhabited and uninhabitable due to the island’s steep sided peaks, although two or three valleys pierce the island. Exploring the half-mile wide lagoon and barrier reef by kayak, Millan appreciated the natural beauty of the light blue water, the surf booming on the reef and the open Pacific beyond.
