2012 Pear Festival Parade – By Rick White
This is another great event in Kelseyville. Gets bigger each year. This is a condensed recording of the parade which is a great small town parade. Enjoy!
Western Pond Turtle laying eggs
Too bad. Had to go to the property again today only to find that some predator managed to uncover the turtle nest and get the eggs.
You never what you might come across when out in the field showing property or other related activities in a real estate transaction. On Saturday, August 4th 2012 I was doing a visual inspection on a lakefront property in Konocti Bay, Kelseyville, Ca when right in the middle of this private drive was a turtle laying eggs. Glad I thought to stop and get this little video clip. It’s simple things like this make me appreciate living in Lake County CA. Enjoy! Rick
