Tour sheds light on Bear Ranch land exchange
Dear Editor:
Recently, a friend and I took advantage of one of the Bear Ranch land exchange tours being offered to the public of the new proposed trails and trailhead at what is now called the Buck Creek Ranch.

Nullification maintains balance of power
Dear Editor:
In last week's DCI, Hank Lohmeyer reported that I said during the recent GOP debate that if elected my top goal would be "support of law enforcement." Mr. Lohmeyer failed to emphasize that the specific context of my support would be relative to the sheriff standing between a citizen and a rogue federal agency or agent who oversteps its or his authority.
