The woman greeted us ok until we mentioned we were from California. Face fall, "oh." Was her reaction. Once I told her we had family here, always up here, finally moved to our favourite city, etc, etc, did she look at us least somewhat welcoming. Then she said go to the website for info and gave us tourist sheets. I especially wanted to know how to volunteer at the Chamber/Visitor centre but she took that thought right out of me. I know Californians are coming in droves, I get that but the attitude there shows a negative, not welcoming air to potential homeowners, new business owners, new tax payers, landlords, etc. I'm embarrassed for the Chamber and kind of sad...

I also wondered recently whether Federal budget cuts would take their toll here. I stopped in today to buy a Lifetime Senior National Parks pass. It was only $80 and the friendly guy at the counter was more than happy to run the transaction. While I was waiting, I couldn't help but admire the huge selection of area "outdoors" books, maps, and gifts. It's also a nice information desk for an area that has a lot to offer.

It is an office that has an information desk and a small gift shop, similar to a chamber of commerce. Some of the maps and brochures are free. They sell mostly books about the national forests, as well as some clothing, mugs, and teddy bears. The office was empty when I arrived, but a gentleman came out and greeted me. He said they are the U.S. Forest Service, with is a branch of the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture). He kindly explained that they are different from the National Parks System (NPS), which is a branch of the U.S. Department of the Interior, but they do have national parks information here, as a courtesy. He must get these questions a lot, as many tourists pass through here. I asked him about this, and he said their busy season begins now. I also saw the fire advisory sign out front, so I asked him why they are now called "wild fires". When I was a child in the 70's, they were called "forest fires", and Smokey Bear used to give warnings: "only YOU can prevent forest fires". He explained that they sometimes also have grass fires on their lands, so they changed the term. I also asked where their district's boundaries are, and he said they control the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest along the California-Nevada border, from the Dog Valley northwest of Reno, to Alpine County in California, an area about 15 miles wide and 100 miles long. I said I would look the U.S. Forest Service up online to learn more about them, and the employee kindly gave me a brochure which explains everything. They have maps and other tourist information outside, as well as a boot cleaner by the door. Parking was easy, right in front.

Well, this review is for the Public Works Street Maintenance Dept. They really do get on problems if you just let them know what it is and it's a real hazard. Example, there was a huge pot hole in the neighborhood that need fixing. I called in and it was fixed in a day. But my latest call was for a big pile of glass in the street that was causing a real hazard. Called in at 8am and by 8:15 (15 min later) there was a sweeper running up the street cleaning up the glass .... dang 15 min response time! Now, that service .... that would never happen in a big city like LA or SF.

I went here today, Tuesday, May 28, 2019. I was planning to go to Carson City Parks & Recreation,…read morebut my GPS led me here, so I went in to ask for the location. I was very happy. It was a nice office with two sets of doors in the entryway; and with a large, modern waiting room, complete with a fish tank. When I told the employee who came to the front desk I was looking for Parks & Recreation, she jokingly said "you're close!". She then pulled out a laminated map to show me where it was. They must have people get lost like this a lot, lol! The office I was seeking was a few hundred feet away. I thanked her as she was very nice. When I told her my GPS led me here, she laughed and said the opposite is true when people input Public Works' address. They end up going to Parks & Recreation. I then asked her about the Public Works open house which they had a few weeks ago (see my Yelp tip posted here or this pic: https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/carson-city-public-works-carson-city?select=GZl7-D04tab1QjDIvmJrug&utm_campaign=www_photo_share_popup&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_source=(direct) ). It was held on a Saturday with all kinds of family activities and the Bus Boy Mobile Cuisine on site. I had planned to add it to the Yelp events, but I didn't have time. I also wanted to go, but again, I just couldn't make it. I asked if they would have it next year, and she said definitely yes. They had held in in September 2017 for the first time, but people complained it was too hot. Then they didn't have last year. For 2019, they moved it up to May, and it went really well. I promise I will add this to the Yelp events next year. I am looking forward to going. As I was about to leave, I noticed there were also a ton of freebies on the counter, like refrigerator magnets, fans, pens, and paper rulers. I asked if I could take some, and she said that is what they're for! She explained voluntarily that they had two types of pens, and I could have one of each! She also asked me if I had gotten my free voucher for landfill disposal. I said I didn't need one, but was glad she offered it I thanked her. As I left, I noticed there was a wall of business cards for many of the employees. I took a pic of these for Yelp. I had a great experience here and will be sure to return if necessary!

Not only is it a great place for students to come for a quiet place to study, it is also perfect for anyone looking to use the computers or have a quiet space to work or read. They have free wifi, printing and copying that are only 10 cents a page. They also have fantastic rooms in the back where you can study with a group, or if you just want a private space to be alone and quiet to concentrate. These rooms are such a plus! Where else can you go to use free wifi, but also have a private area all to yourself? In these economic times, money is scarce, renting movies can be $3-$5! But at the library, you can rent three movies at once for FREE! Not to mention, their late fees for books are very low so if you forget to return a book for a few days you wont be paying big bucks. Check it out! As a lover of books and quiet places, I highly recommend.

I should have stopped by Payless ShoeSource, as they are closing nationally and have good deals, but I didn't have time. I have been here many time over the past four plus years. This plaza is located at the southwest corner of US Route 395 and Topsy Lane, just past Clear Creek Plaza and the Carson City limit. It is technically in Douglas County, but has a Carson City postal address, as it is served by that post office. It has two entrances on US Route 395, one entrance on Topsy Lane, and a back entrance on Vista Grande Boulevard (by Costco). It is also right next to Clear Creek Plaza to the north, on Topsy Lane. This shopping center has a variety of useful and somewhat higher-end stores than the neighboring Clear Creek Plaza. The stores are: Armed Forces Career Center AT&T Bank of America Bed Bath & Beyond Best Buy Bike Habitat Boot Barn China Jade Horse Cost Plus World Market Dollar Tree EyeZone Nevada Famous Footwear Farmer's Insurance GameStop GNC In-N-Out Burger Jamba Juice La Salsa Grill Marshalls Mattress Firm Maurices Michaels Panda Express Payless ShoeSource (going out of business soon) Petco Pier One Imports Play It Again Sports Qdoba Mexican Eats Roger's Carpet One Floor & Home Round Table Pizza Senior Care Plus Sierra Sewing, Quilting, & Vacuums Starbucks (with drive-thru) TeamClips The UPS Store Ulta Beauty Verizon Wireless There used to be a Claire's, Quiznos, and Styles for Less here, but they closed. I love coming here as I always feel safe and have plenty of stores to choose from. I have always found there to be plenty of parking. It is a clean and well-maintained plaza, with just a few vacancies. The views from this plaza are also spectacular, as you can see the mountains on the west end and hills and desert on the east end.

I had wanted to go to Stewart Indian School for years and finally made it out there today with my…read morehusband. I am so glad we went! The school is in the peaceful, open space of the high desert, surrounded by blooming sage brush and towering cottonwood trees. On our visit, we stopped in the gift shop which was filled with amazing souvenirs and stunning handmade pieces of Native American art. The Native American lady who was a volunteer there had once been a student at the school and had a lot of interesting information to share, both positive and negative. She also wrote her own book about her experience which I bought and she signed for me. In the main museum, another volunteer gave us a tour which we learned a lot from! For instance many of the Native American people who were kidnapped and forced to attend this school came from the Southwest as well as Nevada. The grounds are beautiful. Most of the buildings are made of the colorful stones native to Nevada. Local Students learned how to cut and chisel the stones from the Hopi of the Southwest. They taught their classmates how to build the buildings. Today, the school is a place for Pow wows and for the public to learn about Native American cultures. I urge everyone to come check out this important historical place. The Native American cemetery just across the street is where the famous basketmaker, Datsolalee is buried.
