Allow me to warn you that this month’s Home Matters is filled with all kinds of trash talk. In fact, I’ve been trash talking with the city and BC Wastefree for a few days now. Why all this garbage gab? It’s time to take out the trash, properly.

Ahhh… it is a wonderful time of year. Spring is just around the corner. The sun shines longer, the birds are singing, and plants are blooming. It is a magical time of year!
Last night I caught a few minutes of “Wheel of Fortune” and whenever I do, I can’t help but think back to my time in Hawaii when the show came over to film a few weeks’ worth of episodes at the Hilton Waikoloa Village about 15 years ago.
I know, I know, I know. I’m a week late for Valentine’s Day content. But my timing has always sucked. Just ask my wife.

A generosity of spirit lingered in the air Saturday from sunrise to well past sunset.
Someone says something. You disagree. You yell: “You don’t know what you’re talking about!” Now what?
We’re in the middle of an extremely exciting month. May is mental health awareness month, along with it being the end of another school year.
After being “recruited” to move to Boulder City a dozen years ago by Bob and Linda Faiss, one of the major reasons why my wife, Becky, and I made the decision to move was for the schools.

Water usage in Boulder City was up significantly in 2024.
While it may not technically be real and just a simulation, don’t tell that to the participants or their loved ones.
