It’s been one hell of a week, and for too many Shasta and Trinity County residents, it’s been a week in hell. May you find peace and healing.
Of course, it’s a particularly good idea to check with venues before venturing out this week. As I learn about cancellations due to the Carr Fire, I will post them here.
