Sea salted butter & sea sat Carmel popcorn. Only. As far as I can tell. Their mainstay is cheese: not affected.

Right? The ordinance even specifies “front facade” is where murals are not allowed but interpretation was that any building side facing a street is a facade.

Mural, by Grace Nestor-Louie got said permission and turned out great! Would love to see this ordinance clarified though so no special permission is needed.

Just one of many atlases our Map Library was getting rid of a few years ago. I'm not sure how they ended up with so many non-English atlases, but I saved many of these to share with my cartography students.

Considering pulling my 10 yr old out of a bad aftercare situation & it hinges on whether they can safely make it .4 mi home & the barriers are a red light cars consistently run and a four lane 25 mph rd that drivers do at 35+. How many families are having to build their life around this?

Argh, forgot alt text: Photos show their tree canopy walk among 175 yr old stand of trees in this former golf course, buildings & research plots. Not shown: bog & river access, solar array, and a permeable pavement experiment.
