    2/09 Genocide Has No Statute of Limitations
    GlennFrancoSimmons
    by GlennFrancoSimmons  8-12-2009   
     For a county that prides itself on championing so many "causes," there are few among its "enlightened beings" who realize even this basic detail. Such so-called "progressives" remain woefully and hypocritically indifferent. On the other side of the ideological spectrum are those who believe "it's time to move on." Their indifference is partly based upon a fear of losing land.

    Tribes Should Run Fort Humboldt
    GlennFrancoSimmons
    by GlennFrancoSimmons  8-11-2009   
     It's time to end using a death camp as a logging exhibit. Fort Humboldt's only relation to logging was use of the soldiers who "protected" peaceful Native Americans from the violent white "settlers" who stole their land that had vast tracks of ancient redwoods on them.

    Emerald Triangle Anything But 'Green'
    GlennFrancoSimmons
    by GlennFrancoSimmons  7-8-2009   
     Humboldt County in California is one of the most-corrupt locales. Its county seat, Eureka, is the 71st most-violent city in the United States -- and its population is LESS than 30,000. It is the armpit of California, and I caution anyone who is thinking of moving there are staying overnight there: DO NOT DO IT. It is unsafe. The illicit trade of marijuana has a lot to do with this county's corruption.

    Humboldt Creamery Produces Great Products, Including Organic

     While Humboldt Creamery has been utterly mismanaged by the locals in Humboldt County, it is up for sale and we can only hope true professionals buy it and manage it properly, unlike the inbred mismanagers who ruined a cooperative.

     In the summer's warmth, there is nothing like the pleasant aroma of a redwood forest. In some old-growth groves, redwood sorrel forms a carpet.

    Creamery Offers Best Oragnic Milk, Ice Cream
    GlennFrancoSimmons
    by GlennFrancoSimmons  3-17-2009   
     I have no financial or familial interest in Humboldt Creamery, but it offers the best in organic and non-organic milk and ice cream. If you travel to Humboldt County, be sure to visit the redwoods. Best times for that are spring, summer and fall. However, around June and July, it's often foggy around the coast, but check out Ferndale. If you do visit the redwoods, it often gets up to the 80s-100s in the summer, but it's beautiful.

    Michael Guerriero's Brilliantly Vivid Serigraphs Are Masterpieces To Be Treasured
    GlennFrancoSimmons
    by GlennFrancoSimmons  2-16-2009   
     Tonight's golden light-illuminated sky reminded me of Michael Guerriero's unequaled serigraphs. The strikingly beautiful pink hues cast against puffy white clouds amid a beautifully blue backdrop of increasing twilight served as a pleasant reminder of the first Michael Guerriero serigraph that captivated me in the early 1980s in the now-defunct Candystick Art Gallery in Ferndale. His words are a humble understatement, which is just another tribute to this gifted artist. For the record, one of my other two favorite artists is Larry Eifert, who used to live in Humboldt County. When he left Ferndale, it signaled the fact that Ferndale was beginning to lose its status as the creative haven of the North Coast. Now, I believe, Eureka has more art galleries than Ferndale. Although Ferndale's art galleries are a phantom of what they once were, and although I have walked out on several horrific plays the Ferndale Rep should have been too embarrassed to insult its rural (and th

    Del Norte County's Titans

     Although this site is not one of the best I've seen, it has some interesting facets about Del Norte's redwoods, which are often forgotten because most people think of Humboldt County's Avenue of the Giants, yet in Del Norte, you will see what I believe are the biggest redwoods in volume and height.

     The wind-swept Elk River area provides magnificent views of ospreys diving for fish in Elk River Slough. There are seals, and a beautiful and unspoiled dune environment. You can also kayak or canoe in the slough or Humboldt Bay.
