It snowed yesterday in Garden Valley and again this morning.  Never the less, I have official confirmation that spring has arrived.

In your neighborhood, you might depend on the calendar, the weatherman or even the Farmer’s Almanac.

In Garden Valley we have our own way of confirming the changes of the season.

To start with, the vegetation starts to come alive.  Trees start to bud out.  The pastures turn green and lush.  The deer and elk come down to the valley floor to nibble on the fresh sprouts.  Indeed, the elk are abundant right now.

For over 20 years, I have been able to count on a particular Garden Valley ritual to mark the change of seasons.  This morning marked the definitive proof that spring has arrived.  Yes, I have been watching for the signs for weeks.  I am happy to announce that Kenny moved his calves to the east pasture today. 

Spring is officially here!!!

If you have ever considered owning a piece of heaven on earth,  I just might be your Real Estate earth angel.  Mountain Shadows developers have decided to offer their remaining parcels at deeply discounted prices, dropping the listed amounts an average of 50%.

Mountain Shadows is a premier neighborhood in Garden Valley.  Average lot sizes are 2 acres, each having underground power, phone and water to the lot line.  The Mountain Shadows developers did an excellent job designing this neighborhood, taking advantage of the topography and vegetation resulting in privacy and views on every parcel.

Mountain shadows is an established neighborhood with a well designed infrastructure, affordable HOA fees and easy access.  Phases I and II and a portion of Phase III have been sold out and there are beautiful homes in the area.

Today’s prices start at $39,900.   Could Mountain Shadows have just established the market bottom?  I think so!

But don’t take my word for it.  Come and see for yourself.  It’s heaven on earth!

The following notice has been published by the Central District Health Department

H1N1 Flu Vaccine Available in Boise County October 28^th

      On Wednesday October 28, 2009 the Central District Health Department (CDHD) will set up two Point of Dispensing (POD) facilities in Boise County to administer H1N1 (swine) flu vaccine to Priority Group members only.  The two PODs will be open from 3:00 – 7:00 p.m. at each location:

·                     Boise Basin Library - 123 Montgomery St, Idaho City

·                     Crouch Community Hall - 342 Village Circle, Garden Valley

      Vaccine supply is extremely limited.  Not all those seeking vaccine will be able to get it.  Additional PODs will be scheduled as more vaccine becomes available.

      Priority Groups are based on guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP).  ACIP set forth guidelines for when vaccine is in short supply to target those individuals most susceptible to serious illness from the flu.  The groups include:

• Pregnant women,
• People who live with or care for children younger than 6 months of age,
• Health care and emergency medical services personnel with direct patient contact (i.e. diagnosing and treating patients with flu-like illness)
• Children 6 months to 4 years of age,
• Children 5 to 18 with chronic medical conditions, such as asthma, diabetes, lung, heart, liver or kidney disease, or are immune-compromised because of cancer treatment or HIV.

The process of going through the POD operation can be completed more quickly by downloading and filling out the Consent Form found on the CDHD website: www.cdhd.idaho.gov.

Additional questions can be directed to the CDHD Flu Hotline 321-2222 or by visiting the CDHD website: www.cdhd.idaho.gov.

Trunk or Treat

Saturday October 31st, 2009

6:00 - 8:00 PM

Garden Valley is a rural, mountainous community where there are few neighborhood that kids can Trick or Treat door to door.  Mom and Dad would have to drive their little goblins around the valley.  Local kids miss the interaction of Halloween celebrations in more urban neighborhoods.

Thus, the advent of Trunk or Treat, an easier, safer and more fun way for one and all to enjoy the Halloween festivities.   Adults challenge each other to come up with the scariest transformation of cars and trucks, turning downtown Crouch into a veritable “spook” parking lot.  Set up begins in the afternoon.  Festivities begin at 6:00 PM.  Bring lots of candy.  If you are really brave, you can sign up to be judge of the best car or truck costume.

Prizes will be donated by the Crouch Merc.
