| More than a dozen local runners traveled to Chico to run either the Bidwell Classic 5K or Half Marathon races last Saturday, with many coming through with outstanding performances. | |
| There's a difference between frost and frozen. In these almost spring days when it's still cool, but we're starting to see the sun more often, it's a good idea to call the Pro Shop before you head to the golf course on a clear... | |
| We keep getting spring-like days mixed in with winter, which is typical for March. The wild plum trees in Penn Valley are fully in bloom, which is a sign that there should be some stripers in the Feather River and sturgeon in the Sacramento. | |
