CRIME SPREE MARS SALON SECURITYBy Genevieve A Suzuki

Looking at Pizazz Hair and Nail Salon from Jackson Drive itrsquos hard to believe it had been the target of two burglaries planned by a sophis-ticated trio of thieves Flanked by a sedate group of small businesses the unassuming storefront doesnrsquot exactly scream big money to would-be criminals

Nevertheless Bryon Upham 36 Barron McNulty 28 and Cierra Correo 27 hatched a fairly elaborate scheme to steal thousands of dollars of salon and spa products from 27 San Diego salons spas and beauty supply businesses to resell online through Amazoncom and eBay The thefts occurred between April and October last year

A few stores were hit more than once ndash Pizazz was one of those unlucky victims Pizazz owner Nancy Losek suspects the thieves had been the ones to break the lock to her front door early last year before returning to fi nish what they started months later

The Lake Murray Playground Project is entering its fi nal phases presenting the public with important dates to remember and a chance for volunteers to get their hands dirty

The Lake Murray Playground Project has been a three-year effort to rebuild the deteriorating playground at Lake Murray Countless volunteers and donors have stepped up including one of the Projectrsquos largest donors to date The San Diego Half Marathon committed $25000 to the project in April The donation brings Lake Murray Playground Projectrsquos donations to more than $210000

79TH DISTRICT MAY BE A RACE BETWEEN DEMOCRATSBy Michael Stetz

With the June 5 primary election right around the corner few races are as contested and interesting as the one for the 79th District Assembly seat

Six candidates are vying for the open seat ndash four of whom are Democrats which is no surprise given that the district is so strong in that party registration

The big question is will a Republican even make it to the November ballot For the fi rst time itrsquos an open race which means voters donrsquot have to vote by party affi liation

The top two fi nishers will battle in November and they both could be Democrats Traditionally a Republican was guaranteed a shot thanks to separate primaries

LATE NIGHT HEROICSSan Carlos Father and Son are More than Just Good NeighborsBy Michael Stetz

A good nightrsquos sleep is a luxury a super-hero can ill afford Not that Todd Cameron and his son Gary would ever consider them-selves heroes much less of the super variety

The Camerons immediately dismiss any reference to heroics when discussing the fi re that claimed their neighborrsquos home They just say they did whatever anyone else when seeing a neighborrsquos house on fi re

It was 1 am in late March when Todd was awakened by a noise across his street in his San Carlos neighborhood At fi rst he thought someone was breaking into his car Instead he looked out at the corner of Jackson Drive and Boulder Lake Avenue and saw a house on fi re without a single emergency vehicle in sight

See PIZAZZ page 11See HEROES page 8

Pizazz Hair and Nail Salon on Jackson Drive was one of 27 salons around San Diego to lose thousands of dollars to burglars whose operation comprised selling stolen high-end salon products on Amazoncom and eBay

Lake Murray Part 2In 1926 the Cuyamaca

Water Company sold the lake and its surrounding property to the La Mesa-Lemon Grove-Spring Valley District It is now called the Helix Water District The City of San Diego purchased the reservoir from Helix in 1961 From the time of the inception of the earthen dam in 1895 it has been a popular destination 1930s there were speed boat races in addition to duck hunting and fi shing at the lake A man who walked at the lake told me that he and his friend participated in the races and even built their own boat He showed a photo of the two of them in the boat that looked partly woodenpartly metal He told me that movie stars from Hollywood came south to race

In 1950 the City of San Diego built the Alvarado Filtra-tion Plant next to the reservoir The original capacity of the plant was 60 million gallons of fi ltered water per day In the 1970s it expanded its capacity to 120 million gallons per day In the mid-1990s the fi ltration plant Lake Murray provided processed and drinking water to more than 400000 San Diegans An upgraded eight-phase project was implemented to meet water quality standards in 1993 and was slated to fi nish in 2010

In the late 1970s hydrilla was discovered at the lake It is a noxious weed (as designated by the state and federal govern-ments) It is thought that it was brought to the United States for use in aquariums and it proliferated Hydrilla is an invasive plant that was found in Lake Murray It can grow so big that it can interfere with

CELEBRATING 50 YEARS Business began in a La Mesa garageBy Pam Crooks

In 1962 two Explorer Scouts developed an innovative backpack in their La Mesa garage to try and raise money for a 16mm camera to fi lm their outdoor adventures Those backpacks were so well-designed that the young entrepreneurs were soon overwhelmed with orders forgetting all about that 16mm camera

Thatrsquos where John Meadrsquos dad and uncle come into the picture As outdoor enthusiasts they decided to buy one of the specialized packs and were impressed by the quality of the work and interest it was gener-ating So they bought the company That was in 1970 We know it today as Adventure 16 Outdoor and Travel Outfi tters With fi ve stores in San

BIRD LOVERS FLOCK TO MTRP BIRDING BASICS By Cynthia Robertson

Winona Sollock knows San Diego County birds so well she really should be known as the Bird Lady Sollock who lives next to Kumeyaay Lake in Santee is the local bird expert at Mission Trails Regional Park

For the last seven years Sollock has taught a free Birding Basics class at the Visitorsrsquo Center When she moved to Santee nearly 11 years ago she discovered the park right away and knew she wanted to volunteer

ldquoIt was a turning point in my life when I discov-ered this park right next to my condordquo she said

Sollock started by taking the Trail Guide class and working three days a week Just three years later she was named Volunteer of the Year

Birding has been in her blood since she was

very young She knows the birds of MTRP by name recognizing them by sight sound and behavior

People who attend Sollockrsquos class learn fi ve simple techniques in how to identify birds seen around the park and any other place in the county ldquoThe more people I have in the class the betterrdquo she said ldquoThat way they get to share their own storiesrdquo

Sollock who is completely self-taught in birding said that the class was most rewarding for people who donrsquot know anything at all about the birds ldquoI put the class at ease by sharing my own backgroundrdquo she said

One of the most rewarding experiences shersquos had was meeting a 9-year-old boy who wanted more than anything to learn all he could about birds During the Birding Basics class he learned about the parkrsquos Nestbox Project which aims to provide nesting opportunities for cavity-nesting birds breeding in the park and public education on the life cycle of native birds

The boy then asked his parents to let him participate in the project for his birthday

ldquoI was blown away that he wanted to come to the class and then having his mother sign him up for the Nestbox Projectrdquo she said

Watching birds is a hobby like no other according to Sollock ldquoDo you know why the Kill-deer is called that Itrsquos because thatrsquos what it sounds like theyrsquore saying with their call Yoursquoll also recognize Killdeer by the way they pretend that they have hurt their wing just to get preda-torsrsquo attention away from the nestrdquo she said

Sollock loves to tell tales of the friendships she has struck up with birds however precocious they may be One of her favorite stories is about a young male Cooperrsquos Hawk that used to frequent her yard The hawk had gotten used to the song-birds that fed on the seed which Sollock threw on the ground every day

True to Cooperrsquos Hawk tradition the young hawk was kicked out of the next by his parents shortly after fl edgling But the hawk didnrsquot want to

hunt for his own food even though there were birds all around so he went after the quail that Sollock had in special pens

ldquoI would scramble up the boulder in my yard and scold himrdquo she said

Another time she had heard a strange-sounding dove or quail call out in her yard Curious as to what was going on Sollock stepped outside to check on things All of a sudden birds of every kind stormed up all around her startled away Habit taught her to stand still and wait for the calm Out of the corner of her eye she saw something scary a Peregrine Falcon fl ying straight at a sparrow in a bush near her

ldquoIf Irsquod moved an inch either way that bird could have broken a bone in my face I found out later that those guys fl y up to 90 miles an hour He had his eye on that bird and nothing was going to get in the wayrdquo she said

The strange-sounding dove call had actually been the falcon The bird had learned that its prey could be tricked into trusting that the horizon was clear with the comforting ldquocoordquo of doves or quails

No matter that she yells good-naturedly at some of her more aggressive avian friends ndash Sollock loves all of them Within minutes she can identify birds living within the park She knows California Thrashers from their snipping sound in the valley just outside the view deck at the Visitorrsquos Center She is familiar with the thrushes that fl y in from the riparian area to the Toyon shrubs scattered about the Center In Oak Canyon she has spotted a Blue Grosbeak Sollock has also seen an abun-dance of Woodpeckers and Flickers throughout the riverbed

Most recently Sollock has spotted a pair of Golden Eagles making their home in the Mast Boulevard staging area ldquoI love it when I fi nd someone elserdquo she says referring to her feathered friends

PATRICK HENRY STUDENT EARNS DISTINGUISHED HONORSBy Michael Stetz

Ballet dancer Melanie Poolos is used to being on stage But usually her only requirement is to dance not talk so having to do an interview for the Distinguished Young Womanrsquos contest was a bit concerning

ldquoTalking in front of people thatrsquos a new experience for merdquo said the Patrick Henry High School 11th grader

Looks like Poolos may need to get accustomed to making public speeches

The Del Cerro 17-year-old wound up winning the April 1 competition at the University of San Diego and will represent San Diego in the upcoming state-wide competition this summer in Bakersfield If she wins the state competi-tion therersquos a shot at the national title

ldquoShe has always been a winnerrdquo said school counselor Louis Richard ldquoMelanie is an academic high achiever getting outstanding marks in our most rigorous college level class and honors classes hellip In addition she is a phenomenal athlete dedicated to dance with an attitude of humility and an endearing smilerdquo

Poolos isnrsquot letting her win go to her head She was surprised she won given she had never even heard of the contest before entering and considered her venture more of a learning experience than anything else

Participants are judged on talent scholastics self-expression fitness and how they perform in an interview In all 25 young women took part Poolos rocked the talent portion winning best overall

She of course danced Her only concerns were the interview and self-expression segments which she must also have aced given her top honors The interview was pretty intense she said She was asked questions about contro-versial issues such as abortion gay marriage and the presidential election

Letterfrom the Editor

Last month Gov Jerry Brown announced that California is facing a $157 billion budget defi cit Unsurprisingly among the most threat-ened departments is education

The San Diego Unifi ed School District grap-pling with its own budgetary shortfall issued 1600 layoff notices to teachers counselors and school nurses Whether you think the answer lies

within the governorrsquos proposed tax hike or schools trustee Scott Barnettrsquos call for the district to rescind the layoff notices and declare itself insolvent whatrsquos clear is our children are in desperate need for someone to step up to the plate for them Increased class sizes a lack of supplies and frustrated teachers are just a few ugly truths of public education

This particular issue has hit my family hard My husband a tenured public school music teacher has received his second pink slip since he became a teacher in 2000 While some may dismiss music as an extracurricular activity I think the arts should be part of our core curriculum

By now yoursquove probably read at least one article discussing the correla-tion between music and high performing students Research has shown that music helps augment the skills necessary for learning math and science Wersquore always comparing ourselves to China and its academic all-stars Well guess what the Chinese have built into their curriculum Music

Math English and science arenrsquot always everyonersquos immediate favorites We need to fi gure out a way to engage our students enough to make them want to stay in school to get good enough grades to go on to college Ensuring them a well-rounded education is a step in the right direction

Peer pressure is usually portrayed as a negative but good peer pressure exists as well When I was in high school my friends and fellow band geeks gave me a hard time when I slacked off Thanks to them and my music scholar-ship I was able to become the fi rst college graduate in my family And many of the students with whom I was in youth symphony are now doctors architects teachers attorneys and business professionals

In May I helped my husband chaperone his Knox Middle School orchestra and band students at the Lincoln Cluster Concert in southeast San Diego I was surprised at how many of them didnrsquot know the proper etiquette for a symphonic concert I was even more surprised to have to be the adult scolding them for talking in the middle of the other school groupsrsquo performances

ldquoA lot of these kids have never been to these kinds of concertsrdquo my husband explained after I complained Unfortunately if music programs are cut from school electives many of these students will never get to attend those kinds of concerts which is a sad commentary on todayrsquos society

We like to pride ourselves on being America the land of opportunity but the reality is opportunity seems to have become only available for those who can afford it

NATHAN FLETCHER FOR MAYOR

San Diego has a real choice in the June 5 primary election for mayor We believe that choice is clear ndash Nathan Fletcher is the best choice to lead San Diego into the future

In the race for mayor San Diegans have been exposed to a barrage of tele-vision commercials and direct mail hit pieces On one side is an extreme right candidate who has excelled at playing political games and regurgitating old battles on the extreme left is a career politician with few ideas and locked in with labor unions In the center is Nathan Fletcher someone we believe is a tested trusted and independent voice who will work with all San Diegans to solve problems and move our city forward

As an example mayoral candi-date Carl DeMaio recently published a laundry list of what he called ldquoOver

$130 million in Wasteful Spending at City Hallrdquo Wait a minute Doesnrsquot DeMaio work at City Hall Hasnrsquot he been at City Hall for almost four years to solve these problems Carl also talks about ldquoOne Manrdquo as though by electing him mayor this ldquoOne Manrdquo can solve all of San Diegorsquos problems The truth is it takes a lot more than ldquoOne Manrdquo to run a City It takes leadership and collaboration

Herersquos some reality As a current member of the Cityrsquos legislative body (City Council) DeMaio needs only four (4) of his colleagues to join him in rooting out the wasteful city spending he points out took place during his tenure on the City Council All he needs to do is work with four colleagues and get them to support him in rooting out waste The question is this Why didnrsquot he address these problems as a councilmember Fact is if DeMaio were elected mayor he would no longer have a vote on the Council ndash he would now need fi ve (5) votes from the Council to push through his agenda If he couldnrsquot get four votes while a member of the Council what makes him think he can get fi ve votes as mayor

The reality is this DeMaio has had ample opportunity to fi x the problems he is a part of at City Hall ndash and the truth is he has failed

Democratic candidate Bob Filner touts his many years in politics as the reason he should be San Diegorsquos next mayor In fact Filner talks about working on San Diegorsquos problems for 40-plus years Our question is why canrsquot Filner point to anything he has been able to fi x in 40-plus years The truth is that Filner is a career politician who is beholden to special interests

San Diego deserves better We need a mayor who can work with all sides and then make the tough decisions to lead our city forward We believe that person is Nathan Fletcher and we urge your support and vote Fletcher for mayor of San Diego

SAN CARLOS AREA COUNCILBy John F Pilch SCAC President

The San Carlos Area Council (SCAC) has not scheduled a meeting in June in accord with our new schedule In addition we will not meet in July since the Fourth of July holiday falls on our usual meeting date We are considering a meeting for Aug 1 to get an update on the San Diego County Water Authority (SDCWA) projects in Mission Trails Regional Park and

San Carlos which are scheduled to begin in August More information will be available in the next edition of the Mission Times Courier

In the interim you can review the proposed project on power point slides at the San Diego County Water Authority website at wwwsdcwaorgmission-trails-lake-murray-pipeline-relining

Many thanks to Craig Balben SDCWA public affairs representative and his cohorts Brent Fountain and Karen Henry for the information about this project Fountain is the engineer for the Pipeline 4 Relining and Karen is the Project Manager for the Lake Murray Control Valve Installation of this valve will allow the SDCWA to remove the unsightly vent behind Keils The relining of Pipeline 4 will necessitate Jackson Drive being torn up again with a 60-foot-by-20-foot portal in front of Keils Traffic will be re-routed to the bank side of Jackson with one lane in each direction The proposed Control Valve instal-lation is on the east side of Lake Murray and means Baltimore Drive will be partially closed during the 18-plus months of construction

Jack Campagna the owner of the vacant lot on Navajo Road and Cowles Mtn Boulevard did not respond to our attempts to contact him to speak at our meeting about his plans for the property He has not yet given his presenta-tion about possible uses for the property at the Navajo Community Planners Inc (NCPI) meeting Wersquoll continue our attempts to schedule him for our next meeting

HOW TO SELL YOUR HOME WITHOUT AN AGENTldquoItrsquos a strong possibility that a Republican could be the odd man outrdquo

said local political analyst John Dadian Another wild card Because the 79th District is newly drawn some voters may go to the voting booth expecting to cast their ballots for past representatives who are no longer within their voting area he said ldquoA lot of people will be confusedrdquo he said

All the candidates say they are revving up their engines as the race enters its fi nal weeks Many believe itrsquos going to be a nail-biter given the changes and the crowded fi eld ldquoWersquove got a good race goingrdquo said Democratic candidate Rudy Ramirez a two-time Chula Vista City Councilman and local businessman

ldquoYes it is tough to callrdquo said candidate Sid Voorakkara a non-profi t director and community leader and also a Democrat The size and diversity of the 79th District makes campaigning a challenge said several candidates The district includes Le Mesa and Lemon Grove Bonita and parts of National City Chula Vista San Diego and Spring Valley Walking it likely means blisters aplenty But everyone said they are up for the challenge and are campaigning aggressively even in neighborhoods that are strange to them

A number of the candidates have strong roots and substantial name recognition in particular communities within the district but may be virtually unknown in other neighborhoods ldquoEverybody has a level of infl uence some-whererdquo said Shirley Weber a Democrat and former San Diego school board member ldquoBut I still go everywhere I donrsquot assume anythingrdquo The diversity is also a challenge but a good one Weber said People come from all sorts of different economic and educational backgrounds ldquoIt makes it exciting and challengingrdquo said Weber

Voorakkara fi nds the diversity of the district enthralling as well ldquoYou become exposed to all of these different culturesrdquo But he said he fi nds common themes of concern wherever he goes ldquoPotholes and jobsrdquo Voorakkara said While this race has attracted a number of experienced candidates one Demo-crat Pat Washington takes issue with that as being a positive for the district

ldquoThat we have this embarrassment of riches is a misconceptionrdquo she saidThatrsquos because she believes many of her opponents have been in the game

and are beholden to special interests and other outside infl uences A longtime community activist and educator shersquos never run for political offi ce ldquoIrsquom a true outsiderrdquo she said She said given the Democratic edge in the district two Democrats will inevitable win the June primary

But money for her is a problem The latest campaign fi gures show her just having $4716 on hand Voorakkara had the most with $113000 Ramirez trailed with $72000 and Weber had $68000 The next fi nancial fi lings come May 22 so the fi gures will certainly change Weber thinks two Democrats winning is anything but a lock The district is 43 percent Democrat and 29 percent Republican with the remaining either undeclared or aligned with another party So two Democrat candidates could have problems mustering enough votes to defeat a strong Republican candidate Washington has done the math ndash and she knows what shersquos talking about ldquoI used to be a mathemati-cianrdquo she joked Mary England one of the two Republican candidates believes Weber has a point but only if people vote by party lines Since this is an open race ldquovoters will have an opportunity they havenrsquot had beforerdquo she said They can vote for whomever they please said England who is president and CEO of the La Mesa Chamber of Commerce and a Lemon Grove city councilmember

The campaign has been exciting because itrsquos refreshingly new she said ldquoItrsquos not the same old same oldrdquo she said noting that itrsquos a new district itrsquos an open primary and therersquos no incumbent ldquoI call it the perfect stormrdquo she said

Matt Mendoza is the other Republican in the race He could make it tough on England who has local and state Republican Party support by siphoning Republican votes However that shakes out could also help create a two-Demo-cratic candidate November race Mendoza has run in two previous Assembly races losing both times in the Republican primaries He got 136 percent of the vote in 2000 in the 77th District race and 29 percent of the vote in 2002 in the 78th District contest A manager in the aerospace industry he also calls himself and ldquooutsiderrdquo and is banking on independents soured by the current two parties to bolster his showing

Even if a Republican manages to make it to November chances are the magic ends there political experts says Allan Hoffenblum the publisher of the California Target Book which analyzes state races fi gures ultimately the 79th is a safe seat for the Democrats

For a Republican to win it would be ldquoa major upsetrdquo he said

He woke his son 17-year-old son and the two hustled over ldquoThe garage was pretty much fully engulfedrdquo Todd said ldquoI was surprised no one was there yet given the fl amesrdquo They arrived at the same time as San Diego Police offi cer Diana Hodges But that was the extent of the calvary at this point Someone came rushing out of the house saying there was a disabled person inside and she needed help to get out

So Todd and Gary took action and charged in alongside Hodges ldquoIt just seemed like the normal thing to dordquo Gary said ldquoSomeone needed helprdquo ldquoIrsquom extremely proud of himrdquo said Todd of his son ldquoThere was no hesitationrdquo Not everyone reacts the same way According to Todd a fi refi ghter who came to the scene later and debriefed them after the chaos said yoursquod be surprised Most people just watch Todd found that to be surprising

ldquoI thought that any other person would do the same thingrdquo he saidIt was unquestionably a hectic few moments Gary dressed in shorts and a

sweatshirt earlier had to run back to his house to get shoes Because Todd 47 had fallen asleep while working on his laptop he was fully dressed

The fi re moved from the garage and into the house Dining room and kitchen windows had blown out In fact it was through a kitchen window that the Camerons and Hodges entered the house

Luckily Hodges had a fl ashlight because the power was already outThey eventually made it into the bedroom of the woman who was para-

lyzed from the neck down There was only one way to get her out of the house They had to carry her

But the victim was heavy and the clock was defi nitely ticking Worse by that time they didnrsquot know the fi rersquos location Was it upstairs in the attic Was it closing in Smoke drifted into the hot room

A family member and the would-be rescuers tried to move the woman whose size complicated the effort

ldquoAll of us were strugglingrdquo Todd saidThe woman couldnrsquot move of course given her condition Lifting a solid

weight isnrsquot as diffi cult as this A human body isnrsquot a solid weight As Todd put it ldquoa person fl ops and bendsrdquo

Struggling the four of them fi nally got her from the bed and to the fl oor They managed to then get her on a dresser near the window They nudged her through the window through to the outside of the house

ldquoIt was surprising how diffi cult it was to move a personrdquo Gary saidTheyrsquore not certain how long it took to rescue the woman ndash maybe fi ve

10 minutes When they got her outside they found a folding table which they used to hoist her to safety

By then fi re crews arrived and began putting out the fl amesBoth Todd and Gary are active in scouting as members of the San Carlos

Boy Scout Troop 959 Gary a senior at Mt Carmel High School is working to become an Eagle Scout

The scouting involvement helped Todd noted ldquoIt teaches you how to help othersrdquo he said ldquoIt instills a sense of good moralsrdquo

Indeed herersquos Garyrsquos take on his role ldquoIrsquom no hero I was simply doing what Irsquom supposed to dordquo

Both had problems getting any rest that night as adrenaline rushed through their systems ldquoI got up and watched TVrdquo Gary recalled

Unfortunately there is yet to be a happy ending to this hero story The victim of the fi re Lily Bandak is a photographer who specialized in capturing important fi gures in the Middle East and the United States Shersquos now home-less and lost much of her work as well the customized van she used to get around According to a Channel 10 report ldquoShe was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1984 and her lifelong passion came to standstill In 1992 through the assistance of a federal program Bandak designed a special camera mount for her wheelchair that made it possible to photograph againrdquo

Bandak was also quoted as saying when it came to being saved from the fi re ldquoI have some great neighborsrdquo Yes she does

ldquoThe first time the alarm went off and we got a callrdquo said Losek whose salon has been open since December 2003 ldquoThey pulled the lock out but the alarm went off and they leftrdquo

On June 10 Pizazz was hit again That time the burglars actually entered the salon and stole thousands of dollars of Dermologica and hair products Dermologica a high-end skin care line features products that retail anywhere from $30 to $100

ldquoI had never seen so much broken glassrdquo said Losek who wasnrsquot happy with law enforcementrsquos response to the first burglary

ldquoTherersquos such a shortage of policerdquo said Losek who sat in her car for a while before the police showed up She was then told that a shift change made it hard for them to do any significant work on the case When the officers on the second shift arrived they told her there was nothing they could do ldquoThey were nice but they didnrsquot do anythingrdquo

Dissatisfied with the lack of progress Losek called City Hall and the police station She finally emailed City Councilmember Marti Emeraldrsquos office ldquoI felt like I was given this paperwork to keep me busy like when your mom takes you to Dennyrsquosrdquo she said

San Diego Police Department community relations officer Edward Zwibel eventually went to the salon to speak to Losek and advised her to push on She continued to call the police until she discovered they had organized a task force for the salon robberies Losek also became obsessed with trying to put together the pieces of the puzzle ldquoIrsquod hear of a salon or a lead and I would callrdquo she said ldquoI was lucky - the San Diego Police at least responded Some salons never got a call back from their police departments From what I understand theyrsquore just so understaffedrdquo

Then on Oct 5 the thieves returned to Losekrsquos salon This time thanks to cameras she had installed all over the salon Losek had video of the theft

The video shows a black Camaro pulling up outside the salon seconds before a man kneels down breaking into the glass front door and loading a trash can full of Dermologica products The theft occurred in less than two minutes

Losek admits to watching the video over and over again ldquoI canrsquot even begin to tell you what it was likerdquo she said ldquoIt was kind of cathartic too because it made me understand why and howrdquo

She got the call in late October that the police had made an arrest One of the suspects had been recognized in her video

The burglars actually had an office set up in their North Park apartment said Losek ldquoThey were very organized They had two monitors and a board with all of the orders to be filled The police were so amazed at how sophisticated it was hellip They even had a bath set up so they could wash all the prices offrdquo

In addition to the stolen products the police found methamphetamine in the apartment Upham pled guilty to four counts of receiving stolen property and single counts each of burglary possession of methamphetamine and conspiracy to possess stolen property McNulty pled guilty to four counts each of burglary and forgery and to receiving stolen property and conspiracy to possess stolen property Correo pled guilty to one count of receiving stolen property

Upham and McNulty were expected to be sentenced in May to seven years in county jail while Correo has been sentenced to 210 days in county jail

Losek believes Correo was likely the brains of the operation because whoever planned the thefts had knowledge of beauty products ldquoIt was really specificrdquo Losek said For example in addition to the Dermologica and hair products taken from the various salons the thieves also stole OPI products which sell for $7-$10 from Nail Time amp Spa on Lake Murray ldquoThey knew what they were doing Thatrsquos what made me think she was involvedrdquo she said

The first burglary cost Losek at least $12000 The second theft cost $3000 including product loss and the cost of repairing doors and boosting security Losek and her associates have also changed the way they do business Shelves arenrsquot stocked as deep everything is locked up every night and product boxes on display are full of rocks ldquoItrsquos a real pain in the neck but we have to do itrdquo said Losek ldquoI know from the other salons they have to do it toordquo

The burglaries affected Losek more than just financially ndash she said she has lost her sense of security a loss she was able to express to Correo after Correorsquos sentencing hearing ldquoI said to her lsquoHave you any idea what yoursquove done to usrsquo I told her how she took away our safety our security I asked her if she had any idea what itrsquos like to wake up to be told that your alarm went off She said nordquo said Losek Losek also told Correo that it had taken her between 40 to 60 hours to fill out the paperwork on the case ldquoThatrsquos 40 to 60 hours of my life I will never get backrdquo said Losek ldquoI have 17 people who work here Shersquos taken away their safety and security We also service the elderly and they donrsquot feel the securityrdquo

ldquoIt was just really scary You just feel totally violated and all your safety is just taken awayrdquo said aesthetician Sommer Aliava who works out of Mira Day Spa which is part of the Pizazz salon ldquoYoursquore anticipating that theyrsquore going to come backrdquo

ldquoI told [Correo] lsquoYoursquore getting an opportunity I hope you take advantage of itrsquo Shersquos only 27 Shersquos obviously very smart - to set up an operation like this I just shook her hand and walked away and then got pissed off again because it was $22 to park I said lsquoIs it ever going to end Irsquom still paying for this thingrsquordquo

ldquoPrdquo IS FOR PUBCAKESMisty Birchall Opens Up About the Magicof Beer and CupcakesBy Annie Lane

Misty Birchall has come a long way since she stood in her parentsrsquo kitchen baking banana bread from a Sesame Street recipe

ldquoI donrsquot even know how old I wasmdashmaybe 7 or 8 with my momrdquo said Birchall of her earliest cooking memory ldquoWe had a Sesame Street cookbook and ldquoBrdquo was for banana bread The next was sugar cookies from the ldquoSrdquo bookrdquo

Fast forward 20-plus years and Birchall now fi nds herself using more adult ingredients in her dessert recipesmdashnamely beer

As the owner of PubCakes Birchall has expanded on the average cupcake by adding carefully chosen craft beers as a main ingredientmdashalong with anything from apple pie fi lling to bits of bacon She said she was inspired by the idea after baking a Guinness chocolate cake for a friend and using the left-over batter to make cupcakes

ldquoI went online to see if anybody else was doing thisrdquo said Birchall 29 who opened PubCakes a little more than three years ago ldquoI just started doing research with beermdashnot just drinking it I learned how to pair itrdquo

The concept is simple Because every cupcake is made with a particular craft brew the dessert is meant to be enjoyed with the same or similar beer The fl avor of each added garnish frosting or fi lling is meant to enhance the entire experience

At fi rst however the going was tough Family and friends showed their support with a $1500 contribution to the businessmdasha fraction of the $50000 shersquos currently trying to raise to open her own storefront She now shares space

with Treehouse Coffee Co on El Cajon Boulevard but said shersquos starting to outgrow the space

To pay the bills while the business got up and running Birchall juggled hours between her former job as an accountant while going to night school and baking

ldquoAt one time I was baking at night from 10 pm to 4 am and deliv-ering (the cupcakes) the next morningrdquo Birchall said

Shersquos been able to get some sleep since Kaitlin Jaime 25 joined the business A trained pastry chef Jaime brings what Birchall calls the ldquotechnical elementrdquo to the business

ldquoShe and I actually have the same paletterdquo Birchall said ldquoWe taste food the same way Itrsquos very rarerdquo

She added with a laugh ldquoItrsquos a lot more fun to drink with someone than it is to drink alonerdquo

And drink they doldquoWe pick random beers drink the beer and talk about what we taste what

we want to accentuate and contrastrdquo Birchall saidItrsquos through this kind of deliberate process that the cupcakes on PubCakes

rotating and ever-expanding menu are born including Birchallrsquos personal favoritemdashThe Hamiltonrsquos Wrecked Ya

A special release cupcake The Hamilton was made with a Green Flash Brewing Co Palate Wrecker cake a jalapeno lime curd fi lling and topped with a coconut lime frosting and candied jalapenos

ldquoThat one was really really uniquerdquo Birchall said ldquoItrsquos not a cupcake we can offer on a regular basis because itrsquos really labor intensive The magic behind that cupcake was really enjoying the beerrdquo

Despite her tasty triumphs Birchall is the fi rst to admit when things donrsquot go as planned in the invention department One such Oktoberfest-inspired cupcake didnrsquot make the grade because well it tasted too much like beer

ldquoBeer doesnrsquot taste good as a cupcakemdashit wasnrsquotrsquo sweet enoughrdquo said Birchall searching her Facebook page for the name or a picture of the malted mishap ldquoI donrsquot know if I have any proof of it because it was so very badrdquo

Right now however itrsquos a different kind of failure that Birchall is trying to overcome the disappointment of falling drastically short on a fundraising deadline that would have meant the expansion of PubCakes into its very own storefront Instead shersquos left writing refunds to those supporters who made pledges

But the six years Birchall spent in the Navy not only provided her with handy management skills but an ever-present sense of determination

ldquoI try to treat every failure as a learning experiencerdquo she said ldquoYou have to take something positive from your failurerdquo

And PubCakes she said is here to stay

FASCINATING FELINE FACT FORUMBy Sari Reis

More than 33 percent of Americans have at least one cat living with them so I decided to share some interesting facts about cats in this monthrsquos column

Cats have been domesticated for more than 8000 years and currently there are more than 864 million cats living in US households The largest domesticated cat is the Maine Coon weighing in at up to 24 pounds The oldest cat on record lived to be 37

Anatomically cats are amazing creatures Their whiskers are used to judge whether an opening is large enough for them to crawl through Thatrsquos how they manage to get into those very small spaces Just as we humans have unique finger-prints felines have a unique nose print and their noses can smell 14 times better than ours They can see in the dark much better than we can but cannot

see directly below their noses and without suffi-cient taurine in their diet they can go blind Their ears are capable of hearing ultrasonic sounds and their sense of hearing is much more powerful than ours or even our canine friends

Most cats have five toes on their front paws and four on their back with the exception of poly-dactyl cats who have extra toes Feline paws have scent glands that along with the ones around their face and tail area are used to mark their territory That is why they rub their paws faces and back sides against people furniture etc

Athletically cats excel When running they can reach speeds up to 30 miles an hour and they are also able to jump up to five times their own height Cats love high places and although they can easily climb up trees they are unable to climb down because their claws point in the opposite direction hence the calls to the fire department to get cats out of trees Although cats are known for always landing on their feet they can only do this if they have sufficient time to turn their bodies in the correct position

Most cats sleep close to 16 hours a day and 30 percent of their waking hours are spent grooming This fastidiousness results in about 173 grams of cat hair ingested per year No wonder they get fur balls

Although we seldom hear about it cats are a lot smarter than they are given credit for They can be toilet trained taught to walk on a leash and to do several tricks Cats are also great communicators In fact they developed a ldquolanguagerdquo to communicate with people and have over one hundred different vocalizations The challenge is learning what each meow means

Most importantly a male and female pair of unaltered cats can produce 420000 offspring in just seven years and female cats can have their first litter at just five months of age Since pet overpop-ulation results in 4-5 million cats and dogs eutha-nized each year please have your kitties spayed and neutered

BILL REGULATING PET GROOMERS ADVANCES IN STATE SENATE

San Diego Sen Juan Vargasrsquos measure creating a voluntary certification program for the pet grooming industry was approved by the state Senate Appropria-tions Committee The bill called ldquoLucyrsquos Lawrdquo was submitted to prevent injuries and fatalities to pets resulting from visits to the pet groomer

ldquoProfessionalizing the pet grooming industry is a necessary step toward ensuring that groomers are properly trained and pets are protected from harmrdquo said Vargas ldquoThrough this certification program pet owners can be confident that their pets are in good handsrdquo Vargas authored Senate Bill 969 after learning about Lucy a small Yorkshire terrier mix who sustained multiple injuries during a routine trip to the groomer Among these injuries were a detached retina a severed ligament in her leg and lacerations to five of her eight nipples

There have been thousands of life-threatening injuries to pets over the years due to negligent and undertrained pet groomers who use improper techniques when grooming animals according to Vargas Injuries from these negligent acts range from severe lacerations due to incorrect usage of grooming tools toe injuries broken bones caused by the animal being dropped eye injuries and in the most severe of cases death

The bill creates the California Pet Grooming Council and allows for voluntary certification of pet groomers and pet bathers and brushers Senate Bill 969 also establishes the require-ments necessary to obtain a certificate as a pet groomer or pet bather and brusher and set forth the duties and obli-gations of a certified pet groomer or pet bather and brusher

PLAZA DE PANAMA PROJECTWORTHY OF OUR SUPPORT

Balboa Park is one of the San Diego regionrsquos most treasured assets It is the nationrsquos largest urban cultural park enjoyed by thousands of visi-tors each year Those of us who are lucky to live in this great region get to experience the museums performing arts venues beautiful gardens and the San Diego Zoo year-round but Balboa Park is also one of our most popular tourist attractions

In preparation for the Centennial Celebration in 2015 the City of San Diego is considering a plan to restore the heart of Balboa Park the Plaza de Panama to a pedestrian plaza free from vehicles Championed by San Diego Mayor Jerry Sanders and local philanthropist and Qualcomm Founder Irwin Jacobs this plan will remove all vehicles from the Plaza de Panama West El Prado and the Plaza de California by diverting cars traveling across the Cabrillo Bridge onto a new Centennial Bridge which wraps around to a new parking structure behind the Spreckels Organ Pavilion The parking structure and improvements would provide a net increase of 267 new parking spaces near the cultural center of Balboa Park The top of the parking structure will be fully landscaped as a park providing more usable public gathering space

When visionary leaders set the land aside in 1868 San Diego was a small town with fewer than 3000 residents Nearly 50 years later in 1915 Balboa Park was on the world stage for an interna-tional exposition to coincide with the opening of the Panama Canal The citizens of San Diego hosted an international crowd at the Panama-California Exposition when thousands of people walked under the archway through the Plaza de California down El Prado and into the stunningly beautiful Plaza de Panama at Balboa Park

San Diegorsquos population in 1915 was about 40000 which meant the entire community was involved with the Panama-California Exposition making it a great source of civic pride After the Expo the community came together to ensure the temporary buildings constructed for the event were retained and used for civic purposes Fast forward 20 years when San Diego again hosted the world

for the California Pacifi c International Exposition in 1935 The Plaza de Panama (although it was temporarily given a different name) was once again utilized as a central gathering place during the second Expo It was after each Expo that cars began routinely driving through the Plaza de Panama and along El Prado Soon the Plaza was fi lled with parking spaces as it is today The east end of the Prado was not closed to auto traffi c until 1973

One of the most signifi cant legacies of the 1915 Expo the beautiful California building with its iconic 200rsquo tower is passed by thousands of cars every day as they whizz through the ceremo-nial plaza where President Franklin Roosevelt was welcomed when he came to the Expo on October 2 1935 Today visitors from around the world gaze in awe at the buildingrsquos sculpted faccedilade designed by the same artists who created the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC Enjoyment of the architecture is hampered by the confl ict between vehicle traffi c and pedestrians

The Plaza de Panama Project offers the best vision for returning Balboa Park to its roots while accommodating the realities of a modern society Imagine sitting at a table on the perimeter of the Plaza people-watching and contemplating the view of new refl ecting pools El Cid and the House of Hospitality or strolling unimpeded on El Prado from the arches of the California Building to the Rose Garden across Park Boulevard (We invite you to watch the visual simulation at wwwPlazadeP-anamaorg)

We believe the proposed plan to restore Balboa Parkrsquos Plaza de Panama to a pedestrian plaza is an opportunity for our generation to restore this gift for generations to come We are grateful to the generosity of the Jacobs Family and other philanthropists who are making this possible at no cost to taxpayers and just in time for the Centennial Celebration in 2015

No matter what part of the San Diego region you call home Balboa Park is a treasure for all of us We urge you to express your support for restoring Balboa Parkrsquos Plaza de Panama to the people by contacting local elected offi cials at the City of San Diego The City of San Diego City Council is expected to take action on this proposal in July 2012

ldquoIrsquom very proud of herrdquo she saidLike her daughter she had never heard of the contest which actually

dates back 54 years Started in Mobile Ala itrsquos the largest and oldest national scholarship contest for young women according to its website

At one time it was called the ldquoAmerican Junior Missrdquo contest but the name was changed in 2010 so it wouldnrsquot be confused with pageants More than 700000 young women have taken part in the program since its inception

The college money is a big motivator for Poolos She won $750 in the most recent contest At the state level $45000 in scholarship money will be avail-able Last yearrsquos winner received $15000

Poolos has yet to decide on a college she wants to attend She plans to major in engineering and minor in dance While her parents have been saving for her college any windfall from the contest ldquowould definitely helprdquo she said

In the community of Del Cerro

water exchanges that are piped in and out of the lake The Water Department decided to close water activities on the reservoir but the lake road was still used by the community There were several meetings with the public in the late 1980s and it was revealed that a fence was going to be built around the lake property We were told that we would always have access to the lake road for walking running biking and skating It later became clear that we would not always have access to the lake road when a large chain link fence began to be installed When we were told that there could be a fee to use the road an uproar ensued After many months of council meetings the fence and turnstiles were fi nally removed with the help of Councilmember Judy McCarty

In 1994 local residents formed the Friends of Lake Murray Our goal was to preserve the well-being of the lake and its outdoor activities It was also the year that hydrilla was offi cially eradicated Then in 1995 ndash the 100-year anniversary of the earthen dam ndash City Lakes Manager Jim Brown proposed a public celebration to commemorate the day The Friends worked with the water department to organize the event Lake staff gave tours over the dam the plant and the wonderful Spanish domed building all day Dignitaries McCarty La Mesa Mayor Art Madrid Congresswoman Susan Davis were among water and city offi cials who spoke at the occasion Friends sold Lake Murray hats and T-shirts and made hundreds if not thousands of cookies for snacks It was estimated that more than 600 people visited the party that day

After Sept 11 2001 things got tighter at the fi ltration plant There was fear someone might try to do harm to our water supply and the dam So instead of the public using the onsite training facility we were told we could no longer have our meetings there It was diffi cult to fi nd available space for our sometimes numerous attendees Several members of St Dunstanrsquos Episcopal Church suggested that we see if their room was possible for us to use The price was and remains right and we have been having meetings there ever since There is much more that could be written about the beginning of Lake Murray and the years since

Duck hunting stopped in 1961Our speaker at the June 21 Friends of Lake Murray meeting will

be journalist and true-crime writer Caitlin Rother who resigned from the San Diego Union-Tribune in September 2006 to author books full time She is working on her eighth book Her fi rst book Poisoned Love was about the story she covered in the Kristin Rossum murder trialWhile at the UT Rother wrote high-profi le accounts such as the Heavenrsquos Gate Cult and the City Councilrsquos possible involvement with Stripper-gate I asked Rother to bring some of her books to our meeting

Friends of Lake Murray meets at St Dunstanrsquos Episcopal Church on the corner of Park Ridge Boulevard and Wandermere Drive at 5 pm For more information about this program call Barbara at (619) 463-9706

Diego and Los Angeles 85 employees and annual sales of $13 million the companyrsquos corporate head-quarters is on Alvarado Road in Mission ValleyGrantville in an easily recognizable building adja-cent to Interstate 8

Sitting down recently with John Mead company president and a La Mesa resident he elab-orated on the companyrsquos origins

Adventure 16 began as a goal of some young Explorer Scouts whose leaders were involved in river-running in the early 60s Together they set out to make 16mm adventure fi lms for a lecture series In the process their passion turned to making back-packs A garage in La Mesa became a workshop to develop a revolutionary pack design that allowed much of the packrsquos weight to be carried comfortably on the hips By the late 60s the hobby had become a business These young entrepreneurs were busy inventing and selling innovative top-of-the-line products including the fi rst two-layer dome tent specifi cally engineered for backpackersrsquo needs

In 1970 Mic Mead (Johnrsquos uncle) an avid customer and active outdoorsman bought and incor-porated the company Throughout the 70s growth and innovation was steady Mic focused on designing and improving production effi ciency Among other things he designed the fi rst baffl ed down parka and pioneered the use of aluminum alloy tent poles for an optimal strength-to-weight combination

After opening retail outlets and distributing products nationwide Adventure 16 led the industry in introducing the Lifetime Guarantee on all prod-ucts bearing its name

To differentiate themselves from other sporting goods stores Adventure 16 has narrowed their focus to backpacking mountaineering rock climbing and adventure travel--for all levels of expertise And they only carry the highest quality products for these pursuits

ldquoWhen yoursquore out there six to 10 miles from a trail head you need equipment you can depend onrdquo explains Mead Hersquos a regular user of the equip-ment himself strives to hire people with an interest or experience in these areas and encourages all of his employees to go out there and do these things

Another aspect of the business is a wholesale

division representing 13 of all sales specializing in accessories for backpacking camping climbing and adventure travel to outdoor specialty companies all over the world Meade feels they are successful in this area because theyrsquore also retailers they under-stand problems retailers face

Adventure 16 has been headquartered in Mission Valley since 1977 The top fl oor serves as one of their stores middle fl oor their corporate offi ces while the bottom fl oor is their warehousedistribution center

The Mission Valley store is the second largest store in the system sales-wise although their LA store is three times larger Other stores are located in Solana Beach Oceanside West Los Angeles and Tarzana

So what about the economic climate the last few years

ldquoWersquove defi nitely had our challenges and wersquove learned a lotrdquo answers Mead ldquoWe took some risks in the early part of the decade by expanding and taking on debt The recession hit us hard starting in 2005

ldquoAt times itrsquos been really diffi cult to see the forest for the treesrdquo he adds Wersquore not out of the woods yethellip but wersquore in a clearing We can now see the mountaintoprdquo This said while sitting in an offi ce in Mission Valley that looks like the inside of a cabin in Wyoming One can tell he lives and breathes this stuff But that has proven to be an advantage With the recent challenges Mead has discovered some unique opportunities for his business

ldquoWhen the stress of daily life looms large

people look to daily recreation for strength and solitude Backpacking had been on the decline but thatrsquos starting to turn More and more people are looking for opportunities for outings they can do in a day like hiking or mountain-bikingrdquo

Adventure 16 is perfectly positioned to take advantage of this change ldquoWe sell things to get people off the beaten pathrdquo

ldquoPeople are also looking to support their local businesses Itrsquos hard for people to get their arms around national or world events But people want to be a part of something they can believe in and have a way to relate to other people They want to take care of their home community So that works for us too This is our headquarters this is our home Wersquore a San Diego originalrdquo

One way Adventure 16 creates a sense of community is with special events Every month they have something going on in their stores telling people how to get out there where to go and who to go with whether itrsquos a free movie night wine and cheese event or an introduction to a wilderness basics course Their philanthropy is in keeping with their core philosophy Mead created the ldquoDonate-A-Pack Foundationrdquo which provides gear to organizations who take at-risk kids into the wilderness Most of the equipment is donated by their customers so itrsquos also a way of recycling But the main thing theyrsquore trying to do is to get kids outdoors and engaged in recreational opportunities that will enrich their lives Mead is a big proponent of scouting not just because this is how his company began but because he believes they have the best outdoor programs for youth in the country

ldquoWhen we help get kids into the mountains we know they gain an up-close and personal apprecia-tion for nature We hope that they in turn will moti-vate the next generation to conserve and protect the wildernessrdquo

You know hersquos not just thinking about the future of his business when he hands you his favorite quote by John Muir Like I said he really lives and breathes this stuff

ldquoClimb the mountains and get their good tidings Naturersquos peace will fl ow into you as sunshine fl ows into trees The winds will blow their own freshness into you and the storms their energy while cares will drop off like autumn leavesrdquo -John Muir 1898

Lake Murray Part 2In 1926 the Cuyamaca

Water Company sold the lake and its surrounding property to the La Mesa-Lemon Grove-Spring Valley District It is now called the Helix Water District The City of San Diego purchased the reservoir from Helix in 1961 From the time of the inception of the earthen dam in 1895 it has been a popular destination 1930s there were speed boat races in addition to duck hunting and fi shing at the lake A man who walked at the lake told me that he and his friend participated in the races and even built their own boat He showed a photo of the two of them in the boat that looked partly woodenpartly metal He told me that movie stars from Hollywood came south to race

In 1950 the City of San Diego built the Alvarado Filtra-tion Plant next to the reservoir The original capacity of the plant was 60 million gallons of fi ltered water per day In the 1970s it expanded its capacity to 120 million gallons per day In the mid-1990s the fi ltration plant Lake Murray provided processed and drinking water to more than 400000 San Diegans An upgraded eight-phase project was implemented to meet water quality standards in 1993 and was slated to fi nish in 2010

In the late 1970s hydrilla was discovered at the lake It is a noxious weed (as designated by the state and federal govern-ments) It is thought that it was brought to the United States for use in aquariums and it proliferated Hydrilla is an invasive plant that was found in Lake Murray It can grow so big that it can interfere with

Dear Ask the Cop We are going on a much-needed cruise in a few weeks

and feel a bit worried about leaving our home What can we do to keep our house from being broken into

Cruising for Security

Dear CruisingBelieve it or not summer is upon us again and itrsquos a

great time to brush up on our vacation skills Everyone does their diligence regarding crime where theyrsquore going to visit but often our residence is neglected shut and left There are a number of things we can do to help ensure we return to our castle well fed well travelled and hopefully less stressed

In the age of technology we encourage everyone to use the internet to stop delivery on their US Mail and news-

paper It takes fi ve minutes and you can even donate your daily paper to a worthy cause should you choose or have them waiting for you upon your return

We ask you if you havenrsquot already as common prac-tice to padlock your side gates Prevent access to your yard and ensure your motion fl ood lights are working and bulbs are operable Lock your windows and rear yard doors even upstairs Yoursquoll be amazed how fast the house can cool down when you return and open it up Leave the television or a radio on in the house and a light or two lit Check with a trusted neighbor and provide them with your trip details a point of contact here in town and a key if you know them well Let them know who might visit your house to water the plants feed a pet etc When they see a strange person or vehicle they can call us at our non-emergency number of (619) 531-2000

Reach out to the police division where you live and have our fantastic Retired Senior Volunteer Patrol (RSVP) members do a ldquovacation house checkrdquo at your address Theyrsquoll ensure it is still secure and check on it while yoursquore away Often times they fi nd forgotten open doors gates and windows or unsecure areas after a housekeeper mainte-nance or landscape person leaves absentmindedly

Consider your neighborhood watch program and let them know yoursquoll be away on your cruise If you donrsquot have one reach out to your police division and start one when you return While these ideas seem simple we often over-look an aspect and return either lucky at having dodged a bullet or feeling violated when we fi nd our castle in sham-bles Yoursquod rather sit on the cruise ship dine and party while feeling secure with the safety of your residence As your Police Offi cers wersquod rather see you return safely and soundly to a crime-free home Enjoy

CELEBRATING 50 YEARS Business began in a La Mesa garageBy Pam Crooks

In 1962 two Explorer Scouts developed an innovative backpack in their La Mesa garage to try and raise money for a 16mm camera to fi lm their outdoor adventures Those backpacks were so well-designed that the young entrepreneurs were soon overwhelmed with orders forgetting all about that 16mm camera

Thatrsquos where John Meadrsquos dad and uncle come into the picture As outdoor enthusiasts they decided to buy one of the specialized packs and were impressed by the quality of the work and interest it was gener-ating So they bought the company That was in 1970 We know it today as Adventure 16 Outdoor and Travel Outfi tters With fi ve stores in San

John Mead high atop the Grand Teton summit
