Political grafitti
Oct. 8, 2017
Although they seldom stay up for long, there has been a tradition of citizens voicing their opinions on civic issues via the Post Office bulletin board. In the example above, a notice from the City regarding a public hearing for a conditional use permit for a residential treatment facility has gained comments from two different sources:
"Why in the middle of the day? when people are at work!"
"Someone getting paid for this to go through!!! 'Truth'"
the "LOCAL" newspaper
Someone please call the Museum of Misplaced Quotation Marks!
This issue of The East County News includes an ad from Value Ford in Elma with the promise:
"Buy a new or used vehicle for $4000 or more and receive a new tactical or hunting shotgun, AR styled rifle, or pistol (Mossberg, Colt, or Ruger)."

Although McCleary merely had a semi-eclipse, it remained an amazing event.

Golden Rule Store
This vacant lot on Main Street was once the site of the Golden Rule Store operated by Anthony (1908-1960) and Azizeh (1915-2001) Souda otherwise known as Tony and Z.Z. The wooden structure was still standing until the mid-1960s. The empty building on the left was originally the Timbear Cafe, constructed ca. 1957.
Plum Crazy!
It can get kind of messy walking under the plum tree at Beerbower Park this time of year.
BC Haze turns McCleary into Los Angeles
Haze from the British Columbia forest fires combined with 101 degree heat. View from 6th and Pine St.
BC Haze gets worse
The British Columbia forest fire haze can now be felt in our lungs. Temps are in the 90s.
McCleary Cemetery and McCleary Community Center
There is something poetic and oddly comforting about these two community facilities being next to each other.
Why did the chicken cross 5th Street?
