Rio Nido Magic by Elena Chronis — February 2020
February is upon us:
Its amazing how time flies! Its February already. How did that happen? January was a very wet and rainy month with some strong showers and wind that really packed a punch.
February is the month for lovers and is my favorite month out of the year. If you are making plans for V-Day dinner out be sure to get your reservations in asap! Happy Valentines Day!
New Business in Town:
Our little hamlet has a new biz in town... Postal Outlet Plus moved from Guerneville to Rio Nido last month. They offer a wide range of services including mail boxes, fax, email, notary services, Fed-Ex etc. Super nice people and convenient for those of us that don't want to drive into Guerneville! They actually moved into RN's original post office space at the start of Canyon 7 next to the RN Fountain in Rio Nido. Lets give them a warm welcome!
MAC Meetings:
The MAC meetings need your attendance! The next meeting is scheduled for February 20th in Monte Rio. https://sonomacounty.ca.gov/River-Municipal-Advisory-Council/Calendar/MAC-Meeting-February-20-2020 Google "River Mac" for, MORE details. We need RN locals to attend if we want change and much needed services.
Update on RN Post Office:
Please be patient......FRN is awaiting a formal meeting to be held in the very near future with the powers that be. Stay tuned...….
Sweetwater Springs:
FRN is looking for someone to be on the Sweetwater Springs Committtee to represent RN. If you are interested contact: frn@RioNido.net
Abandoned Cars & RV's:
It seems that every winter we are faced with an influx of people abandoning their broke down delapidated RV's and jalopies. This creates a blight on our bourgeoning Community and is unacceptable. They have to move to another spot every 72 hours and cant stay in the same spot. Please be diligent and call the CHP at 707 588-1400 to have RV's and abandoned vehicles tagged and towed. Every call makes a difference and moves the process along more expeditiously! - Thank you!
In Talks:
The talk around town is that we are in discussions about having a possible EB Charging Station in the future so keep reading our Column for updates.
RN Pet of the Month:
Many of you know Jesse James the Rotty. He has resided in RN his entire life and most recently just turned 11 years young. He is a sweet and docile boy who loves his life here in RN. He is fiercely protective of his humans and property. He loves his pack of canine siblings which include: Stavros Baron the Shepard, Roxanna Jezebel the Schipperke, Minka Minx the Chihuahua and Lollipop Lolita the baby Chihuahua. Lets wish Jesse a Happy Birthday!
