Intentional Fires Begin 9/30/24 to 10/10/24
last updated: 9/6/24 bwwtahoe@protonmail.com – Barry 1-800-566-5872 leave message, after the seventh ring.
Intentional fires begin on 9/30/24 to 10/10/24. TREX, is intentionally burning 280 acres of conifers. On both sides of Trout and Cold Creek meadows! In the center of town! Next, to hundreds of homes and endanger, critical infrastructure! Between, Martin and 50 Hwy, Golden Bear and Cold Creek. Leaving, a everlasting, massive, burn site! Where once, old growth trees, and others, flourished!
This is where capitalism, crosses the line! And, I’m and eye witness! These agencies, have betrayed, their missions and values! Allowing, UNR students and Washoe Tribe, to burn out, Tahoe settlements! Leaving, a 280 acre, burn pit, of old growth ashes! A, splendid, recreational park! Lost, for a lifetime! Can our, local fire fighting, resources even handle, tens of homes, on fire at once? Nothing to be hysterical, over or churn, the city’s rumor mill. The city, may go bust, over this hit! And, all we get is! Oops, sorry!

Water, is life! Protect, the land! At this moment, trees and wildlife are abundant, thriving! Let’s not lose, what we have! I like, giving tours to this prized, creek side park! It’s my, front yard! And, it would, rip the heart, from my chest! Set my, world on fire! If we let, this happen! It will be, another 150 years, before Mother Nature, can do it again! It’s an, award winning, meadow! South Lake Tahoe’s, treasured, creek side park!
Our worlds, best water, is at risk! South Lake Tahoe, protect its source! This amazing, 280 acre gene bank, of species lining, these two tributaries, are in threat. Lost to, intentional fire? How does this, make us, any safer? It endangers us! Throwing out, all the rule books! Than, set intentional fires! Hundreds, of old growth trees, on fire! All at once! Blowing, in the wind! Our city, soon, becomes toast! In short, greed, wins! We, lose big time!
Neighbors, use your mentality, wake up to reality! Are we, under some kind of, spell? Save our own, South Lake Tahoe, Central Park! Stop it, from being, a burn pit! An, uncalled for! Unsightly, burnt meadow, ash sediment, and toxic slurry! Nature, destroyed, for a lifetime! Even though, this area, has always been, devoid of illegal activity! The city is, just to cheap, to post, no camping signs! LTCC, whole hillside, is schedule to be, burnt!
There is, no fire suppression, needed here, either! These planned fires, are too, close to homes and buildings! The closest property, to the fire, is only, across the street at Black Bart. About, 60 ft from, the 150 year old, six trunk tree! Which is no, margin of control, for these, wildfires! When, controlled by, inexperienced students and tribe, from, out of state! Even, if some, have history, here! We do, as well! With, mortgages to pay!
So, why do it? This bountiful, 280 acre park, provides a haven, to campers. So, in 2017 Homeland Security and Black Rock, devise this plan, to trick people. Into thinking, they were, dealing with South Lake Tahoe’s, illegal campers issue. Removing by fire, what allows it, to occur! When, it’s really just to, burn down, the old growth trees. In, hopes to, spread fires! To, old Tahoe settlements!
In the words of a great President and conservator, Theodore Roosevelt ” Nine-tenths of wisdom consists in being wise in time.” That’s why Teddy, gave that speech, while wounded! Why, Trump, raised his fist, instead of his, middle finger!
This unique project EIP # 00989 Trout Creek SEZ Restoration, Phase II (CTC) Restoration of SEZ floodplain and stream bank between Martin Dr. and Hwy 50. – In short, Black Rock, DHS and TREX use ancient methods! To burn, 280 acres of old growth trees. By two sensitive, creek banks. Cold Creek and Trout Creek. Between, houses and critical infrastructure.
Kokanee salmon, runs here, as well, as Taylor Creek! During, this exact time! They, will be swimming in both directions. From fires! Trees, crashing down, on them! Swallowing up soot and sediments, from our, intentional fires! Raging, on both sides, of both creeks.
Trout Creek, will surely, lose our recent, Kokanee salmon, spawn! Because, of this heinous, hit! Maybe this, their last trip! Have you ever tasted, unspoiled Kokanee salmon, um-um? Black Rock, has enough money, to destroy, them! Say good-by? What is Black Rock, doing? To, God’s gift, to Tahoe!
We need, to file, a preliminary injunction! That’s all! Grasp this, golden opportunity! Be a hero, to our community! Stop, another Park Fire! Call me, and leave a message! Or, just do it! Personal Injury Attorneys. Get in, the front end, of the greatest injury settlement, in Tahoe history! Get ready, to ponce, hard! How often, does one, get advance notice, of a huge accident, about to occur!
Last chance, to see! A two year, old million home, ignited by, that same six trunk tree. Just, a hop, skip and jump, from me! At, the park’s, sweet spot! Where, a beautiful central park with mountain beavers, begs to be! Where, there’s plenty of room, for a bench donated in your honor! And, for fire trucks, to park. Smack dab, in the middle, of a double crossing, crooked hit. Trout Creek and Cold Creek, will survive! Proudly, they will flow! If you have time, enjoy their, glory! Before, they’re spoiled! I’ll be, slaving, to save them! Who wants, lifetime scares, in their neighborhood?
Black Rock’s, 60 billion dollars, in real estate assets! Power, these equity, hits! They are wealth suckers, setting intentional fires! Is there, no end, to their, madness! Next, comes, flown in, PFAS, 3M fire retardant! Cause of the “Six Extinction”! If, we can’t, drink rainwater! Who can? I change, my bird bath, after rain storms. And, refresh it, with Tahoe’s world’s finest, treated, well water! It is better now, than drawing it, from the lake!
Intentional fires and pink PFAS, it stinks, stains and forever kills! It is in, our waters! It will, be raining, from the sky’s. Getting into, are noses and eyes. Abhorrent to, the world’s best water! Our wells and lakes, permanently destroyed! By, forever chemicals and zealous 3M and Black Rock, capitalists! Backed by DHS!
Black Rock’s, heavier bridge, to our dreams! Trout Creek Bike Bridge! There was, an inspection of the meadow. On August 11th & 12th, 2017 An, all hands on deck, meeting, maybe a hundred, mostly, fire and law enforcement folks. They, camped out, over night, at the college woods. Next, to the meadow and STPUD. Led by DHS and Black Rock. I wondered, is this, to protect the city, from a possible invasion?
Attendees, who, remembers, the leader? The one, who convinced you, this was right! Attack, this rot, from the top! This was a snake oil, salesman! You drank, his or hers, cool-aid, that weekend? May have, infected, your minds! Look, for the courage! Call, this out and come clean! To, our community, South Lake Tahoe! A big, fat, black eye, is coming, our way! If, you don’t!
For those hundreds, of affected homeowner, victims. Get, a free estimate from Zillow, of your property’s value, now! Ahead of this, potentially destructive, event! So to know, how much compensation, you’re afforded! Boost, your fire insurance. Cover these fires! You must, have your request, for insurance addendum, occur before, ten days, of the event! Be prepared, to evacuate again!
Eleven days, could be and eternity, sucking smoke! It has got, to go, somewhere! You may, want to be, somewhere else! Some, will stick it out! Wear, a mask! Defend, the home with garden hoses! Much, of the burn, is inaccessible, to fire trucks! I’m sure, they’ll do their best, on what’s left! I emailed, Lake Valley Fire District-Stephan! Lookusa.net, an easy look!
Black Rock, thrives on fires! Ecocide. Nature, completely destroyed! Nothing, left alive! Uninhabitable! A surprise attack, setting fires, dropping PFAS and destroying homes! Steal, homeowner’s, equity! Out, from under, them! Similar, early settlers call to! Burn, them out! Now, we are inflaming, the Washoe Tribe’s inner, revenge! Here is, the fuel. It’s, your turn, students! Top grades, goes, to the most efficient!
TREX’s cut down, their first tree! At the Washoe rock! Around, Oct. 23, 2023. Then, Oct. 26, 2023, I received, this shocking news! I spoke, with TREX, working on this project, at the meadow! I scolded, them. Who, vandalized, this mature tree? TREX arguments to me were these trees. Were not here, 150 years ago, so they need, to go? They cut one tree down at the Washoe rock. So not to scotch it, during their pending fires!
Eight foot tall, it had grown! Out, of this, Washoe holy, rock outcrop!. After a couple, of days. They brought it, back! Then stood it up, on a ledge. Overnight! Like a badge, of honor! The perfect, Christmas tree. Natives, use to, decorate it! With ornaments, on the 4th of July, Halloween and Christmas.That day! I decide, to set aside, my delightful retirement. To, fight this! The greatest heist and injury settlement, of all time! Black Rock’s, hit on us! A old growth, bomb fire! Or, we make it, a prosperous, central park! Where, everyone wins!
TREX claimed, they have meant with the Washoe’s leadership. They, agreed to turn the meadow. Back, to the way, it looked, 150 years ago! Just for kicks! I could not, believe my ears. I said, that’s sick! Who informed, locals? They, call it “restoration”! Only, problem is! One has, to wait 150 years! For, that restorative state to appear, again! The, desired end! Who, has that, kind of time! To, wait around, for that, to happen? While staring, at a burn pit, out my window? Where, in the skies! Eagles, Owls, Ospreys and Goshawks, used to soar!
They are going to use ancient methods, to burn conifers! This is extremely dangerous and untested! Obliterating, a healthy mature meadow. While, endangering lives? To create, a marsh environment. Full of, burnt, stumps! Mosquitoes, that take us, backwards in time! Scars for generations, to view! Stupid as, a burnt, stump!
Shockingly, on Sept. 30 to Oct. 10, 2024, Black Rock, DHS and these partners TREX – Washoe Tribe, U of N Reno and the Nature Conservancy will give participants. Experience, using intentional fire! Challenge, untrained professionals, to participate, in a class, to set intentional fires. To, old growth trees. In, our front and backyards! When, we are most, at risk! Why not, have UNR students, practice, this intentional fire class, in Nevada’s, old growth forest, first? Before setting, California’s, on fire!
Say goodbye to the mushrooms, from conifers, because this disrupts, the fragile balance, that goes on underground. Web, of life! Overlooked and underappreciated, mushrooms, the fruiting bodies of fungi and mycelium, play a crucial and multifaceted, role in maintaining, the health and vitality, of our meadow ecosystem. They perform nutrient cycling, to plant health and climate regulation. This projects, cuts off, their life support, making it uninhabitable.
Now, blessed with three wet years, in a row. Two El Nino’s and La Nina conditions, to follow. Tahoe, is our planet’s, last Goldilock zone! Or, we are just, incredibly lucky! In the face, of climate change. Nature, is raising water tables, around here! This seven year old. Fake fire suppression, end camping plan, is really the greatest heist in history. With a trail of misery. If we, don’t stop it! It will, stop, us!
Home owners and natives. Just, have to, live with it! A, new eye sore! Loss of privacy! Security! Income! Home values! Wildlife will, be leaving us! To, escape the fires! So, will natives and tourism! The world’s best water is here! Temporarily, in South Lake Tahoe! Protect, its source! How does this, make us, any safer? It, endangers us!
On 7/9/24, I met, with a TREX Intentional Fire Class, next to the college. I told them, they’re not welcome! The teacher said, it’s not, old growth trees. I got my degree, from Humboldt State University. Gathering piles of kindling. For those, fires to come! I ask them, to visit this site.
We are charging, Black Rock with, “Manager Malfeasance,” for manufacturing this South Tahoe catastrophe. Secretly, setting fires to old growth trees and neighbors. My site, is doing, their dirty work. Scaring us, out! Two home owners, between the fires to be and me. Just sold, their homes, to others! It’s, hear no, evil, see, no evil and speak, no evil! Ever since, that meeting! This is, pure evil! It can’t be, undone!
TRPA exhibited, in tahoeindepth.org : “Washoe Tribe hopes, to restore use of fire.” They, didn’t even use capital letters, in the title! When, I read it, on 7/9/24. Their hopes! Had long since, been realized! So has Black Rock’s, dreams of intentional fires! Many, need to come clean, here! Blow, some whistles, together! We, need you! Silence, is complicity! A complete betrayal, of public trust! TRPA’s erosion, from this burn and post-fire, will increase flooding, ash and sediment input. It will, negatively, impact Lake Tahoe! Who, want’s that?
There are far, too many assets, surrounding these, precious wildlife assets. Old growth tree neighborhoods, are the hardest fires, to put out! Look, at the, Park Fire. None, of which is, coming back! Including natives. A failed, hedge fund manager, nut job, rolls burning vehicle, down a riven. Is, a classic, Black Rock, hit job, on old growth forest and us! Differs in, sophistication, only! A hit, is still a hit! Until, they quit! Or, we win! Which, is it?
Life, pristine forests and equity, quickly lost! They are, having a class, in ecocide! So, creative of them. How’s about, a class on putting out, spreading fires? This group is not using, modern prescribed fire, methods. They are using, ancient methods! Like, they used, before settlers arrived! Or, fire science! Before houses or infrastructure existed! Extremely, dangerous methods! Like, I used, when I was four!
Sadistic, land grabbers, use these methods, today! I can’t, emphasis, enough! How, do they keep, the fires from spreading? Goes against Black Rock’s, goals! Didn’t, have to worry, than! One can, move, a teepee, pretty fast. Camp picture, Up and down! Not, so with homes, today!
They’re incentivizing TREX, to go against, their better conscientious. Who on earth! Would destroy, such nature? Answer, Black Rock! Using college students, from a different, state! This action, will not, make our community, more secure. We can pray, for wind and rain. Or, we can fight back, now! Black Rock, is ready to swoop and scoop!. The best deals, on burn outs!
This is not preserving life, Nature Conservancy. Your ecocide of 280 acre park, next to Lake Tahoe, threatens our existence. Both here, and in Nevada. Fires, out of control, climb mountains. It’s all updraft, from the creek up! Hard to fight. When heavily forested and populated. Nevada, has lost 20% of its land mass to fires, in the last 40 years. What’s next? Targeting, old growth neighborhoods. Bullseye, most profitable, income property!
Nature Conservancy, you betray, your own mission! To, preserved life! On 119,000,000 acres, so far! How, will you account, for a precious, 280 acre park, burnt down. For, Black Rock’s, insidious, fires! Taking, direct surprise attack! On our, most revered assets, wildlife and natives. Just, to make, a buck! Where is the seed, of equivalent benefit? Life, destroyed! Here’s their site, at livingwithfire.org/washoe-trex/
Let it be? Destroy our towns, most valuable assets? Imagine an army, of old growth, arsonist! TREX and UNR students, destroying, what’s left of, old growth forest, on earth! Pristine old growth trees, provide wind breaks! Prevent fires, from spreading! Provide sanctuary, to both wildlife and natives! They increase, our property values! Saved us, from the Caldor Fire. Materially, prevent fires!
TRPA exhibited, in tahoeindepth.org : “Washoe Tribe hopes, to restore use of fire.” They, didn’t even, capitalize, the title. Our, only warning! Intentional fire classes, set dates! Many, need to, come clean! Blow some, whistles, together! Please, don’t make us more, at risk of fires. That’s exactly, what you’re doing! It’s heinous.
Others, bow to, their power! Nature Conservancy and TREX said, your wish, is our command! Hence, old growth forests, are doomed! Extending the catastrophic Caldor Fire’s edge to Hwy 50. Years later, is a slap in the face, to firefighters and home owners who risk, their lives to stop it, where they did. We can still, see the scares. Fortunately, the City of South Tahoe was spared. It’s not the time, to force this on us again!
The Caldor Fire removed those neighboring harmful fuels for us. Natives and wildlife, have suffered greatly. Let’s, not be, the victims again! Watch, the healthiest meadow, on earth, burn up? This is why we have the wealthiest hedge fund managers. TREX said, we’re just burning, some meadow grass! Getting rid, of those, so called trees!
Lord, they know not what they do! Love thy neighbor. In my view, Black Rock with Homeland Security backing. Are forcing, our community, to accept, harmful measures, that threaten, our very existence!
When a relationship of such trust and confidence becomes clear that one party could overpower the other’s free will. Than, it is time, to prevent, federal undue influence. Over our jewel, of the Sierra’s. Stop, this insane, deal. This is ecocide! Not, unlike terrorism, by their own definition.
6 U.S.C. § 101 – U.S. Code – Unannotated Title 6. Domestic Security § 101.

Projects, like this, are not, worth the risk. Lets, be thankful. The fire ended. Where, it did! The evacuation, cost me my dog. After, being forced, from her home. Peaches, succumb from the horrific smoke. When winds, died at dust. While in Nevada, air was, overall very unhealthy.
Climbed in and grasp, her last breath! A bear, smelled the blood, that suddenly developed, from the corpse! Within minutes, empty the coolers, outside. Here, it comes again! Intentional death. And, destruction, just ahead!
I wore this outfit. To a fire, of my own making! Burning trash, on a windy day, not cool! I received, 3rd degree burns, over 22% of, my four year old, body! I can, hide the scares, with a tank top! Doctor’s, told me, than! If I had been, a girl! I would have died! The babysitter, Ilene Ball, rolled me, in a rug! Saved, my life! Burnt, her hands, 2nd degree, doing it!
May, explain my fear, of stupid fires! Please, never play with fire! No one, tells a fire, what to do! Not in Tahoe, please! Stay out, from under spells. Lorax, says, pretty, please! I’m on the side, home owners, natives and you! And, in middle, of the greatest heist and largest injury settlement, in history! Just, weeks away!
This forest service, industry trope. Saying, old growth forest, is bad. because it is not, new growth! Says, Mother Nature, the miracle of being! Got it, wrong! We’ll fix it, burn the old growth. Call it restoration.
Restore, mountain beavers! Make it a park, sanctuary and/or walk-in tent only campground like it struggles to be. Patrol it, control it, gather intelligence on gamblers, naturalist and neighbors! Earn money and friends, instead of enemies! After all our commerce, comes from nature! We save on bullets! Expand opportunities! Create jobs!
Black Rock’s, ecocide scheme. Is to, divide the city, right in half. Using military tactics, burn pits and scotched earth policies. The City is required to protect citizens, both individually and collectively. The 14th Amendment guarantees the right of all persons against action by the state which might deprive them of life, liberty, or property without due process of law or which might deny them equal protection of the law.
Look, what happened, to the Tahoe Keys. Evasive species, moved in, including mud snails, spreading to Taylor Creek and beyond. Now, algal blooms, kill our dogs!
Where once a lush meadow, shelter to birds and birds of prey, bears, mountain beavers, ducks, coyotes, chipmunks, squirrels, rabbits, raccoons, mountain lions and bobcats, plus many more. Driven from their homes. Out, with the old! In, with the new. Roust out, long term residents, after destroying, their equity.
Where is, the wildlife, going? Their creek side haven, has been burnt down. Life without them, won’t be the same. Instead, Let the beavers be! They will thin the trees. Keep the water table, high! Our problem is being without them for hundreds of years. https://wisdomvision.com/ideal-fix/ God, made beavers, for a reason!
Here’s 1999, a La Nina after a El Nino year, lush meadow with wildflowers.
My city, here is your chance to establish. A new mountain beaver, sanctuary! And, or campground, sorely needed!The habitat benefits to bio-diversity and to the environment are numerous. Stop killing them! Reverse climate change. Improve habitats and bio-diversity. Beavers, create more, sources of water, to draw from. This is our best chance. To curb species extinction. Add diversity. Boost the water cycle. And, solve the climate crisis.
Beavers cherish water, so much! They, save it up. And, they are, a big part, of the solution. So let them live and they’ll help us live. Together, working with beavers, we can save the planet, from climate change. Let’s put them to work! They recently restored the Colorado River flows to the Gulf of California while increasing habitats. To many, nearly extinct species. During the US Southwest current drought. https://www.martinezbeavers.org/wordpress/the-ecological-benefits-of-beavers/
https://www.sierrawildlife.org/benefits-of-beavers
Show, Black Rock, whose boss! Post three dozen, Mountain Beaver Sanctuary – “Day Use Only” signs at the, entrance of trails leading to the meadow. Illegal human activity, such as the dozen or so incidences of homeless encampments over 13 years, would cease. If that, really mattered.

Instead, let it be! Save 8 million dollars, take a couple, tiny steps. If the injunction is ever lifted to STPUD’s 5G antenna, the wildlife will, also vanish! So, will the, locals! Someone, somewhere keeps the switch off. Thank-you, long may, you live! https://wisdomvision.com/5g-harms/ Now, our medical insurance, will stay lower!
I have lived in South Tahoe for 32 years. I am proudest, of a perfect work attendance. (ie. Tahoe Queen, Caesar’s, Camp Concord – City of Concord, LOOK Home Inspection – proprietor , Lakeside Inn, Tahoe Keys Property Owners Assoc. and Lakeside Park Assoc. – Water Plant) Born in, the year of Dragon, possessing natural courage, tenacity, and intelligence. Often, displaying enthusiasm and confidence. This is, the year of!
Thirteen years, I’ve regularly walked, this lush forested, meadow. Often with, out of town visitors! Losing the wildlife, would be devastating. What is likely, to happen? A rush to sell homes and properties de-valuated their mission. This is no laughing matter. They’re driving down, our property’s values. They say, they will relocate, Meek’s Lumber, too.
Those who start these fires. Leave it up to, others to put out! With these ancient methods, we are apt, to have, ancient results! There goes, everything!
My house was built in 1956. The year, I burnt, myself! It has, an 8 x 5 picture window, pointed at, the lake! I fantasized, about a wind storm, that would level, the trees. Reveal my, lake view! It’s them, the old growth trees, that keep the winds, at bay. Now, these agencies, want to burn down, my wind and fire protection!
When you lose the trees. You lose, the ability to, relieve yourself, in private. Get out, from under storms. Creating fewer birds, flowers and more mosquitoes. Conifers use their needles, to keep warm, generate nutrients and hold in moisture. Raking them up, hurts the tree! These shade trees, grow grasses, mushrooms, wildflowers and provide wildlife habitats!
Post tragedy, a meadow walk, will show many ugly structures. Natives, will want to move, all at once! Never seen before STPUD and college buildings to the east, Hwy 50 traffic report straight ahead. Scenery changed by fire! A trail of old rundown houses, to the south and west.
One, has an old shiny metal roof, that glimmers through the trees. Once gone, it will be, blinding me. Like the headlights from Hwy 50. Now, we’ve lost views .Now, need to close our blinds. Homeland security, using 5G technology, can see through walls, unless they are metal. They can view, everything we do. With incredible detail. https://wisdomvision.com/5g-harms/
Ask the victims, of the Caldor Fire. What happen, to their property values. When the trees, around them were scorched and left scared, from fires. No, more fires, please! Natives, remember driving, on the opposite side of the road, during the evacuation?
Caldor, Evacuation!
Another, hit, Tahoe Keys ecological disaster, is only 3.5 miles away? We can’t afford, radical changes to our environment and property values. This could lead to, Tahoe greatest catastrophe, just when you think, it couldn’t get any crazier.
We will not, just step aside! Are they, looking, for their, worst nightmare? Verdict: Black Rock, No More! I have, found mine! And, in the middle. I, save communities, paint my house. Fix, Black Rock’s, hacks! And, dance to victory, with the USA! Got to stay, hopeful! Strength, is in, our numbers! Go home, Black Rock, Go Home! Is unfortunately, their motto! Up in smoke! Is no joke! We, don’t need no, stink-en, Black Rock, sniff-en, around, here! In conclusion kill this, wicked, fiendish, hit! Before, paradise is lost!
What Legal Claims Might We Bring Against DHS or its Agents?
People have bad encounters with DHS all the time. Some of those encounters might give rise to legal claims. What those claims might be depends on what DHS or its agents may have done and the relief we are seeking.
Federal Tort Claims Act
Our first claim may lie under the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA). The FTCA is a federal law that lets people sue the United States for the wrongful conduct of government employees that causes personal injury or property damage. If we wanted to sue the government for, say, negligence, we would sue under the FTCA.
We have to follow specific procedures under FTCA or we won’t be able to file a lawsuit. We first must file a written claim with DHS within two years of when our claim arises or else we are barred. Our claim needs to be complete and must include an amount for the damages we are seeking.
DHS then has six months to investigate our claim and possibly reach a settlement with us. If we don’t hear from DHS or are unable to settle with them within six months, then we may bring a lawsuit in federal district court.
There are limits on an FTCA claim. we present the case to a federal judge; we do not get a jury. The only damages the judge can award are compensatory damages (damages to compensate us for our actual losses). We cannot recover punitive damages (damages intended to punish the wrongdoer for outrageous conduct) or attorneys’ fees.

Notes and pics:
I was suddenly, surprised, by a Goshawk on 12/13/2023. I was at, a favorite spot, the Trout Creek horseshoe bend! Slated, to be burnt. It was perched on a big limb! Just above me! We watched, two circling Osprey’s, overhead together. What a moment, it was three, birds of prey, at the same time. Last Spring 2023, a film crew, was here making a movie!
Here are, some friends, I’m going, to miss the most!
