Body, Mind, Spirit by Nancy Ballinger
The bedroom filled with candlelight and awe as the midwife skillfully attended to my precious first-born, Cassandra, who was giving birth. As my daughter labored through the night, I sat with her - as before an altar. There I witnessed in silent wonder, the miracle before me, as my grandson Ryan was born. Read More
Critter Care by Elizabeth Henderson
African Grey Parrots are highly intelligent, loyal, and long lived companions. They have been kept as pets for centuries and were prized by the Ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans. Though they may not be as common as dogs or cats, they make excellent pets. Their ability to mimic voices is astounding and they generally form a tight bond with their owners.

Fausto & Julia's Food For Thought
Jasmine Thai Cuisine, at 355 Morro Bay Boulevard, is just as attractive from the outside as from the inside, with its purple window dressings loosely draped from one end of the restaurant to the other. The slate tile floors, and wood tables and chairs are appealing. Daytime dining is a particular pleasure because of the natural light; the lights are low at night. Fausto and I say dim the lights and don the reading glasses; we prefer the ambiance of low lumens. Whether you are dining alone or have twelve in your party, the Jasmine Thai Cuisine owners will accommodate you comfortably. Read More

It is crucial to remember that millions of lives have been saved since the advent and worldwide utilization of immunizations is nothing short of miraculous. Read More
Memorial to Joe Giannini by Jack McCurdy
If there is one figure in Morro Bay's history who has been most instrumental in not only helping residents found the city and achieve the independence they desired, but who showed them by example how to protect the community from destructive change, it is Joe Giannini. Read More
Morro Musings by Janice Peters
This is my second column about how people chose to move to Morro Bay. It's interesting that many of the women are single and chose to come here for the quality of life, even though there aren't a whole lot of single men around. Guess we're either happy in our independence or like the challenge! Read More

Logan Budd did not have to go to the post office, stand in line, and pay a fee to get a passport. He did not cross a border into a foreign country. It just seems like it. Read More
