GRANITE BAY VIEW
A
n 8-year-old girl in GraniteBay has dreams likely dif-
ferent than those of herfriends.
She hopes to grow up tobecome a linguist, and shewants to set a Guinness WorldRecord for speaking the most
languages along the way. Thisisnt a far stretch for SophieKrsulic, who already speaksfour foreign languages Man-
darin, Spanish, Polish and Lat-in.
Mandarin Chinese, thatsmy favorite, Sophie said. Itsso hard. I like everything thatshard.
She has studied the lan-guages for the past two and ahalf years, and this summerenrolled in a Mandarin camp,
Spanish camp and Frenchcamp, in addition to taking pri-vate Mandarin lessons.
Sophie is very intelligentand has learned to speak, readand write Chinese more quick-
ly than most students her agethat I teach, said her Man-darin instructor Norton East-ment. Her pronunciation of
Mandarin sounds and tones isalready nearly that of a nativespeaker.
Sophies list of future lan-guages to learn includes Amer-ican Sign Language and some
not even recognizable to momNancy or dad David, such as anAfrican click language.
I want to learn Arabic, Ital-
ian and Japanese becausetheyre hard, too, Sophie said.
Her interest in languagesbegan when she was 2 yearsold, and she begged her mom

to sign her up for a Mandarinclass.
Its amazing, Nancy Krsulicsaid. She definitely has a gift.
Theres no other way to put it. As long as I can remember,shes been almost obsessedwith languages. Its pretty neat.I wish I could speak all thoselanguages.
Neither she nor Sophie canpinpoint exactly where the lit-tle girls interest came from, butmom said she didnt serve asthe inspiration.
I took Spanish in college. Ican say bathroom and beer,
Nancy Krsulic said. Sheshowed a passion early on andshe showed an aptitude.
To accommodate theirdaughters passion, the Krsulicsenrolled her in a homeschoolprogram through South SutterCharter School. Sophie willstart fifth grade this fall. Thisschedule allows her the flexibil-
ity to take Spanish lessons andpiano class instead of sitting ata desk all day.
The family also has time totravel together, recently return-ing from a trip Nancy Krsulic won to the Bahamas. In thesummer of 2012, they plan to
visit several countries inEurope, including Croatia.David Krsulic is of Croatiandescent.
His wife is Polish, and thefamily participates in theannual Polish festival heldevery September in Roseville.Sophie performs in a dancetroupe at the event and woos
the adults with her knowledgeof the language.
The older generation goesnuts when they see little kidsspeaking Polish, Nancy Krsulicsaid.
Earlier this summer, Sophieparticipated in a Mandarincamp at Sierra Chinese Schoolin Rocklin, which also teaches
children about Chinese gamesand culture.For four weeks in July, the
family hosted a 15-year-oldteenager from Taiwan, wherethe national language is Man-darin. Nancy Krsulic had toremind her daughter not tospeak too much Mandarin withthe exchange student, who wasin the United States to practiceEnglish.
I want to live in China,
Sophie said. I can eat Chinesefood every day.
In the meantime, shes read-ing R.L. Stines Goosebumpsbooks in Spanish, and playingtennis, soccer and baseball other activities she enjoys. Butlanguage practice is her toppriority.

GRANITE BAY VIEW CORRESPONDENT
Hes out of his seat again bal-ancing on one foot, hopping upand down. The rumble from the
dryer bleats the all-finished chimeand Johnny loses all concentration.Shouting I cant do it for the fifthtime that evening, he throws hishomework and runs to his bedroomin tears.
If this sounds like a nightly ritual in
your house, youre not alone.Luckily, Brain Balance Achieve-
ment Center is here to help.Tim Slone, a chiropractic neurolo-
gist, runs the Rocklin center with hisbrother, Jim Slone.
A franchise of the national compa-ny, Brain Balance is meeting theneeds of kids who struggle withADHD, ADD, Aspergers syndrome,Tourettes syndrome, autism and ahost of learning issues.
According to its own research,
Brain Balance claims in a recentstudy of 60 ADHD kids that 82 per-cent of their parents no longer con-sidered them to have ADHD afterthree months in the program. In thesame study, 60 percent of the stu-dents improved their academic per-formance by two grade levels inthree months, and 35 percent of stu-dents improved by four academicgrade levels.
While the program isnt medical,
Brain Balance claims its highly effec-tive.We look at the cause of why a kid
has an issue with reading, for exam-ple. If you dont address develop-ment, you cant address function,Tim Slone said. We are looking atprimitive reflexes, at sensory integra-tion, at nutrition. Does the child getdizzy when he spins around? Thathelps us to know if one side is domi-nant. Does the child have any foodsensitivities? There may be an amino
acid or mineral deficiency. Byaddressing the origin of the condi-tion, the childs function improvesbecause his or her development haschanged.
Slone explained that balancing
the brain by enriching the weakerarea not only changes the personsability to think, process and main-tain attention, but will also enhancethings such as athletics and motorresponse.
The motor system is a directreflection of how the brain is func-
tioning, Slone said.He added that while many parents
are concerned about their childsbehavior or academic issues, manyfamilies come in simply because

their child isnt as motivated ashe or she could be.
Unfortunately, a lot of thesekids will be labeled as lazy, or
non-goal oriented, Slone said.I would recommend thatthese parents sit through aworkshop to see if their childmight have a problem.
Thats exactly what momDanielle Mitchell did when herson, Andrew, had difficultylearning.
He was diagnosed with ADD and he couldnt focus,Mitchell said. He was hyperac-tive and had trouble complet-
ing a task. He was having areally hard time academically.
Mitchell is no stranger to kidsand learning. A home-schoolmom, she has taught all sevenof her kids, but said she hadnever experienced difficultyteaching until working with 7-year-old Andrew.
I tried every method that Ipossibly could, Mitchell said.He just couldnt slow his minddown, couldnt retain anything.
Doctor (Tim) Slone assessedAndrew, and gave him a bloodtest to see what his sensitivitieswere.
Slone developed a personalplan to deal with Andrewsright-side defect.
Andrew does computerwork, along with vision exercis-es and movements that stimu-late the underdeveloped partsof his brain, Mitchell said.
Today, after only a couple ofmonths working with BrainBalance, Andrew has been tak-en off his ADD medication, andcouldnt be happier.
Before the program, hewould struggle to write a sen-tence. He had issues process-ing and couldnt understandwhat he had read. Hes writingall his sentences now, and hisreading comprehension is wayup, Mitchell said. Its like hes
a different kid, and Im reallylooking forward to starting hishome schooling again in thefall.
Kelly OHarren, mom of 9-year-old Nolan, had a similar
experience. While her son hadnt been
diagnosed with a disorder, hehad trouble focusing in school.
We tried tutoring, We kepthoping that would help, but itdidnt, OHarren said. Aftertwo and a half months at thecenter, he went from testing atsecond-grade level to the
upper-end of fourth-grade lev-el. And theres so much more toit than mere academics.Theyre finding parts of the
brain that arent firing, and theyare finding ways to stimulatethem.
Like Mitchell, OHarren isexcited for her son to attendschool in the fall.
We had attended teacherconferences teachers want-ed him to be evaluated forADD, they hinted that medica-
tion might be the answer. But we didnt want to go thatroute, OHarren said.
Nolan attends the center forone hour, three days a week,and a typical program is three-
months long, with an evalua-tion at that time.
But the first step is contact-ing the center to learn more.
Everybody has imbalances,but some peoples are morepronounced, Slone said. We work with 4- to 18-year-olds,but we hope to include help foradults in the future.

BY TINKA DAVI
GRANITE BAY VIEW CORRESPONDENT
An unfortunate experiencein Joe and Mary Brunos lifeprompted them to com-
pletely change their lifestyleand provide a pleasant placefor three elderly women withspecial health needs.
As he tells the backstory, JoeBruno points to his UncleFrank Tomasonis militarymementos from World War II.Theyre framed and displayedprominently on the familyroom wall.
My uncle was like a seconddad, Joe said. When he devel-oped lung cancer, we foundhim a residential care facilityfor the elderly in the Bay Area,but it was god-awful. They fed
him chicken feet with rice andgravy for breakfast.
Uncle Frank stayed alone inhis room for days and wouldcall, crying, Joe said.
After going through thatwith our uncle, we decided thatwhen our son went off to col-lege, we would turn our houseinto a care facility, he said.
Joe, 55, and Mary, 53, openedLakeland Manor in Granite Bay
last year.Were an alternative tosomeone being just anotherperson in a nursing home of50-100 people, Joe said. Wekeep it nice and small with ahomey atmosphere.
Its home to Mavis, 87, who issnoozing in front of the TV;Leona, 91, who prefers to stayin her room all the time; andIrene, 92, who waves at a visi-tor, then looks back at her
hands that hold a small blackand white photograph of hermother. Every day she asks togo home. Mavis and Irene havedementia and cant live on theirown; neither can Leona, who
broke her hip.
We keep them as occupiedas possible, Joe said. We have220 TV channels, but the three women prefer Hallmark andwesterns. They also have cardgames and puzzles.
The couple provides plentyof TLC, comfort and conversa-tion. Their focus and that of ahelper/caregiver, Michelle, isobviously on the three women.They bend down or sit next tothe women, listen carefully and
reply softly.Belle, a friendly 6-year-old
Maltese, likes to sit in their laps.Joe Bruno understands what
its like to be seriously ill. In1989, at age 34, his neck started
swelling. The doctor said it wascancer, and Joe underwentchemotherapy and radiation.
Four years later, he had aheart attack and triple bypass.
In 2000, he had surgery toinsert two stents to open hisarteries.
I know what its like not tofeel good, he said.
Mary learned to be a caretak-
er when she quit her job as anexecutive secretary to care forJoe. Turning their home into acare facility was not easy. Theyhad to complete a 209-page
state of California applicationand attend numerous informa-tional meetings in Chico,where the commission on carelicensing was located.
The entry to their home
required remodeling for wheel-
chair access. The wooden rampleading to their front door has a1-inch drop for every 12 inches,a flat landing every 30 feet anda 5- to 6-foot area for turningaround. Several plants in frontof their house were removed toaccommodate the ramp. A sec-ond required exit is via anothersmaller ramp, which runs fromthe back door and along therear of their home.
Hard-wired smoke alarms
are installed in every room; theoutside house numbers arelighted so emergency vehiclescan find the home; the bath-rooms have grab bars and each

exit door has an alarm. Peoplewith dementia have a tendency towander, Mary explained.
Mary must take 40 hours of con-tinuing education every two yearsand has applied for hospice waiver,which means residents can stay aslong as necessary at LakelandManor.
Joe prepares home-cooked, Ital-ian-style dinners, following hisgrandmothers recipes for special-ties such as chicken marsala andfettuccine alfredo. Breakfasts areprepared to order, according towhat each woman prefers.
Lakeland Manor is licensed for
six men and women, but Marylikes keeping it smaller with justthree people, one per bedroom.
Residents, including the elderlyand people who need short-termcare after accidents, are referred byagencies who work with local hos-pitals.
The cost per month depends on
the care needed and starts at$2,500 a month.
The bedrooms are painted insoft, restful colors and each has abed, dresser and baby monitor. Therooms are decorated with artwork,matching curtains and bedspreadsand personalized with the resi-
dents stuffed animals.The Brunos sleep on a sofa bedin the living room.
The couple must follow strictregulations in providing care. Theycan dispense medication, but eachresident must pick it up and put itin her mouth. A diabetic must beable to give his or her own insulin
shots.Family members or the Brunos
take residents for appointments oroutings. Speech, walk and physicaltherapists visit regularly. Leonasfamily stops by every afternoon;the others also have visitors.
Joe and Mary grew up six blocksfrom each other in San Francisco,attended high school together andmarried in 1976. He worked for AT&T for 30 years in the Bay Area and Sacramento. Maryworked for an insurance companyand then as a teachers aide.
They chose Granite Bay becausethey wanted a country setting closeto a grocery store. Lakeland Manor
is just off Douglas Boulevard on theway to the Granite Bay entrance toFolsom Lake.
Its a pleasant, quiet place tospend the later years with specialcare.

When Granite Bay chil-drens book author AnnMartin Bowler (better
known as Annie) was in thesixth grade, her teacher toldher that she explained thingsbetter than any sixth-grader he
had run across.He actually had me explainthings to the class, Bowlersaid. So by the end of that yearI was convinced that I was tobe a teacher.
She went on to teach kinder-garten through third grade atBlack Oak Mine Unified SchoolDistrict for 16 years. Shestopped teaching around 13years ago and began her careeras a writer for a local magazine.
I was in every issue for two years, Bowler said. You see
your name in print, you knowyoure a writer.She also wrote a newsletter
for the Sacramento area adop-tion community, which includ-ed personal stories about being
an adoptive mom.Bowler and her husband
John have five children: birthchildren John (nicknamedJocean or Jo), 35; Francis, 32;and Nicole, 22. They adoptedtwo Korean babies Sarah isnow 19, and Jake 13.
At this time Bowler has 14published books includingtextbooks for primary grades,and has plans for more. Shehas particular affection for Asian topics in her picturebooks.
Her first picture book,Geckos Complaint, arose out
of her interest in Indonesia.Son Jo was a foreign exchangestudent there and eventuallymarried an Indonesian. Bowlervisited and was fascinated bythe culture.
I was just so struck by all thefolktales they have and howthey told all these stories andall their art, and Im like, oh mygosh, no one knows anythingabout this place, Bowler said.
She brought home a stack offolktales and retold a couple in what would become Geckos
Complaint. She then returnedto Indonesia and, with the helpof her son, began the process offinding a Balinese-Indonesianillustrator.

We walked and walked andwalked for three days, Bowler
said.They were getting tired of
tramping around, finding gal-leries and searching among theartists who seemed to be every-where.
Finally, the porter at theirhotel brought a drawing from afriend who was an illustrator. Itwas exactly what Bowler had inmind.
We went out to the country-
side the next day and talked toGusti (full name I Gusti MadeSukanada) and had tea on hislittle porch, Bowler said. Hesa very poor, very humble man,but a very good artist, I think.We sat and had tea and cookieson his porch and worked outan agreement.
Her next book, Adventuresof the Treasure Fleet, wasbased on a real voyage morethan 600 years ago by Chinese
Admiral Zheng. Bowler wasable to obtain translated copiesof authentic journals writtenon board the ship. Zheng ledmore than 300 ships across theSouth China Sea to the Indian
Ocean, all the way to Africa, tobring treasures home to China.The book was placed on Tai-
wans Good Book List in 2009,which is the most prestigiousaward a childrens book canreceive in Taiwan.
Her most recent book, AllAbout Korea, came out in Aprilof this year. Bowler had helpfrom Sarah and Jake on this.The two had attended Friendsof Korea school, which met
once a week on Sundays. Eachalso has traveled to Korea andlearned firsthand about the
country.I made examples of the craft
activities that ended up in thebook, said Jake Bowler, whowill be going into the 8th grade.My sister Sarah helped mymom to create the recipes inthe book. It was fun to help mymom with all of this. Im gladmy mom wrote the bookbecause it made us moreinvolved with the Korean cul-
ture.Tuttle Publishing, an interna-tional publisher with an officein Vermont, has published allthree of Bowlers picture books.
The thing that attracted meto Annies work boils down toher enthusiasm, Tuttle EditorSandra Korinchak said. Werevery excited and thrilled aboutthe book (All About Korea). Itsbeen getting some nice com-ments so far.

BY MARY CLARKGRANITE BAY VIEW CORRESPONDENT
Nancy Thompson,Director of Recruit-ment for Drexels
Sacramento Center forGraduate Studies, didnthave to look far for one ofher first recruits.
Shortly after garneringthe position of recruit-ment director, Thompsonenrolled herself in one ofDrexels many masters
programs. A Bay Area native,Thompson has lived inGranite Bay with her hus-band and high schoolsweetheart, Jeff, and theirthree children for 21
years.On Saturday, June 25,
Nancy Thompson gradu-ated from Drexel along
with more than 100 otherstudents at the Crocker
Museum at Drexels firstever commencementceremony in Sacramento.
Now, having receivedher degree and recruited424 students simultane-ously, she will return toDrexel to continue inspir-ing and encouraging stu-dents like her.
1. What made youdecide to enroll as a stu-
dent at Drexel?Drexel had the pro-
gram which fit my inter-ests, education with abusiness approach. Plus,I was encouraged by oneof my own recruits! Sit-ting across from my deskI mentioned I was con-sidering the programmyself. With a bit encour-agement I went for it and
now two years later, hur-ray, I am done.
2. What did you receiveyour masters degree in?
Masters in higher edu-cation.
3. Tell us about the sig-nificance of Drexels firstcommencement in Sacra-mento at the CrockerMuseum.
This was the first timein Drexels 120-year histo-ry that a commencementceremony was held out-side of Philadelphia.More than 100 studentsfrom five different col-leges and schoolsreceived their diplomas.It was a very special cele-bration with more than700 family, friends, facul-ty and staff attending. I
was especially blessed tohave my family and my89-year-old father travelto Sacramento to join inthe celebration.
4. How does your role
as a student help you withyour job?Ive worked in higher
education for more than15 years, but in everyclass I was given newtools and knowledge for
my job. I like to think I ammore strategic and cre-ative in my approach tosolving problems. Duringmuch of the program,discussion in class andassignments, we focusedon the California highereducation predicament.
We discussed how we got where we are and whatpractical solutions needto be put in place to fix it.
5. What is your favoritepart of your job?
My favorite part isbeing able to encouragepeople to pursue theirdreams. Ive met so many
wonderful, smart individ-uals who because of thenew knowledge they haveacquired through theirgraduate work are mak-
ing an important impactin the Sacramento region.At the end of the day, forme, it is all about how Ican make a positive last-ing impression in thelives of others.

Gina Anixter of Granite Bay istraining for the Ford IronmanTriathlon to be held in Tempe,
Ariz., Nov. 20. The triathloncombines a 2.4-mile swim,112-mile bike ride and 26.2-mile run.
What inspired you to take onIronman?Ive been training for
triathlons for eight or nine years. I just started with thesprint triathlons. Over the yearsI have just increased the num-ber of or length of them. Idecided I would take on thechallenge of Ironman, which isin November.
It is a huge commitment andI am not really a long distance
athlete, but over time have justdecided to take on a biggerchallenge. With the outcome ofthe last few half ironmans itinspired me to just try and gofor it.
I have a couple of friends thathave completed Ironman Itrain with. Its fun because weall have that long-term goal inmind. It was inspiring to seethem come across the finishline.
What is your training schedulelike?
There is about eight months worth of training. Im trainingabout 15 hours a week and I
work full-time and I have twokids. I wake up around 4:30every morning.
I train most days twice a day.I swim, bike and run. I teachcycle for Johnson Ranch. I bike
four days a week, and swimfour days a week and run fivedays a week. Then there is theacupuncture I have to do.
I was injured prior to starting.I have an injury to my ham-
string. What Ido now intraining is I tryto eat real food
fresh fruitsand vegeta-bles. I try tostay awayfrom refinedsugars andflour.
Generally before a trainingIm more of a fan of oatmeal. Iuse Hammer products. I gener-ally eat balanced meals everythree to four hours throughout
the day. Ill do four rides over ahundred miles, three 20-mileruns and about an hour and ahalf of swimming. That gets youthe feeling of being on your feetthat long.
The big thing is planningahead. Having a plan and exe-cuting the plan gives you asense of accomplishment evenif its not a race. Im going to doa couple half ironmans and anOlympic distance race. I have
three or four races before Iron-man.
What are your goals for therace?
I havent quite decided. Ihope to go under 13 hours.
What is the most challengingaspect for you?
The time spent away frommy family as my long rides andmy runs get longer. Working fulltime and having two kids and ahusband, its hard to juggle it all.That means more hours on mybike, also just to keep my bodyhealthy.
Ill be 45, so with that comesthe risk of being injured. Forme, because of my injury, run-ning is probably the mostpainful. My pace is a little bit off
with my injury. That is probablywhat I kind of look forward to
least.
How do you get through wallsor tough moments?
I think I just go back to why Ilove to do it in the first place. I
know how good its going to feelwhen I am finished. I also havea lot of great friends that I train
with.We can use each other to sort
of get motivated to finish aworkout. I just actually got cer-tified to become a coach, atriathlon coach. I motivate
them as much as they motivateme. You have to be up for themtoo.

Theres no shortage of people
who have a religion-likedevotion to coffee.
Where Jericho Coffee has suc-ceeded is in creating a placewhere you can be comfortablewith your faith (while also wor-shipping your false idol thecoffee bean).
Owners Franc and Sheri Woods opened the Christian-themed coffeehouse in 2005.
The Fish 103.9 is often playingin the background and there areloads of Christian books for sale,but Jericho isnt about winningsouls.
Im not the kind of person toget in peoples face about faith,Franc Woods said. The environ-
ment can do the work. Peoplecan see hey, its OK to talk about(faith) and not feel threatenedabout it. I figured if we createdthe environment, God will dothe work.
With comfy couches, soothing water feature and glow of theelectric fireplace, its the perfectspot to chat with a pal or do a lit-tle soul searching. And peopledo hold devotional meetings atthe shop on Sierra College
Boulevard.Franc (pronounced France
its short for Francis) workedat Hewlett Packard for 25 yearsand had always kicked aroundthe idea of having a place likeJericho. Something music-ori-ented with books a place torelax.
I needed something differentthan a cubical. I needed to beout with people, he said. I kind
of had this feeling if I dont trythis, someday I might say hey, Ishould have tried it at least.
So the couple attended a cof-fee trade show, Coffee Fest, andtook out a second mortgage on
their home. Both Franc andSheri also got jobs at Starbucks,to see if they really wanted to do
the whole barrista thing. While at Coffee Fest, theyfound their bean provider FoxHallow Coffee, a microroasterout of Washington state.
The beans are put to good use
at Jericho, where youll find all your standard coffee drinksalong with some fun surprises.
One standout is the CinnamonBliss Latte, an awakening mix ofspice and sweetness that is trulyheavenly. And it didnt make me jittery something Francattributes to the quality of Fox
Hallows beans.Beyond beverages, Jericho fea-
tures a pastry case overflowing
with tempting delights such asapricot bars, macaroons andMississippi mud cake. Theresalso a good assortment of fare ifyoure a little more hungry. Thechicken salad (Sheris recipe) is atasty mixture of cranberries,apple, celery and cashews thatcan be served on a croissant,wrap or bread.
As for the clientele at Jericho,youre likely to find anyone from
medical professionals looking to jumpstart their day to a mancramming for his bar exam,whom Franc said has been tak-ing up residence there recently.The shop also has wi-fi for cus-

Im not the kind of person to get in peoples face

People can see hey, its OK to talk about (faith) and
not feel threatened about it. I figured if we created
the environment, God will do the work.Franc Woods, Jericho Coffee owner
tomers.Cindy Harkness, 34, of
Orangevale, has beencoming to Jericho for thelast year and a half.
Its a warm, invitingatmosphere and peopleare friendly. Franc isgreat, she said. Its notyour typical coffee shop.
She recommends theJericho German Choco-late Cake a decadentblend of Ghirardelli Dark& White Chocolate,espresso, coconut andhazelnut.
But a big part of why Icome here is the musicon Friday and Saturday
nights, she said.She occasionally plays
guitar at the open micsheld once a month, which she said arepacked with talentedlocal performers.
I think theres a lack ofplaces in the area to dothat kind of thing, said Woods, who also playsguitar in a praise band.Theres talent in the areathat doesnt have a venueto (play in).
On a recent Saturday, ahandful of what lookedlike regulars assembled to watch musicians BartVogel, John Freeman and
Robert Greene playacoustic guitar on thepatio.
Patrons sipped theiriced coffees and listenedintently to the musiciansfolksy tunes as the settingsun cast a glow on theoak tree that sits outsideJericho.
Yes, some of the songswere about Him with acapital H but no onewas asking you to acceptJesus into your life.
About the only conver-sion you will have at Jeri-cho is a new belief in thisalternative coffeehouseexperience.

His most unlikely role documentary film maker isnow drawing national atten-tion to his cause.
Soto is aiming to raise$250,000 for Wounded War-riors, a non-profit organizationthat benefits wounded militarypersonnel and their families. Ahigh school football extrava-
ganza at Del Oro High is themain event. But the football-filled weekend is getting a boostfrom Sotos hour-long videocalled The Day Remembered.
Soto is the father of CorporalJoshua in the Marines and Ser-geant Benjamin in the Army.His son-in-law Nick Brown is aGunnery Sergeant in theMarines.
Soto agreed to take the reinsof Battle at the Capital this yearwith the promise that all pro-ceeds from the event would goto Wounded Warriors. The man with a constant smile andboundless energy is doing hispart to make the event anunprecedented success.
I love it. I feel like Im givingsomething back, Soto said.Weve had some unbelievablestories.
Earlier this year, Soto set outto make a couple of short
videos to promote Battle at theCapital with some soldiers atthe Balboa Naval Hospital in
southern California. After talk-ing with a handful of injuredveterans, Soto wound up with
hours of compelling materialthat brings the realities of warinto perspective.

BY JEFFREY WEIDELGRANITE BAY VIEW CORRESPONDENT
Looking for a weekend get-away or vacation localethat offers a variety of fam-
ily activities and provides someunique historical places toexplore as well? Consider a tripto Carson City.
Typically overshadowed byReno and the heralded LakeTahoe region, the small-towncharm of Carson City canquickly enamor first-time visi-
tors. Situated in Nevadas pic-turesque high desert (4,600foot elevation), south of Renooff the Highway 395 corridor,and less than a half hour fromSouth Lake Tahoe, Carson Cityis carving out its own niche as avery affordable vacation spotfor both families and couples.
A lengthy list of activitiesawaits tourists this time of yearin Carson City, which ranks
among the smallest capitolcities in the United States. Onecool option is whitewaterkayaking or rafting down theCarson River with the highdesert scenery providing a gor-geous backdrop. The citys water trails are meant fornovice, but experts can locatesome challenging stretches aswell.
If water is not your thing,there are many other recre-
ational choices to consider,including: numerous hikingand biking trails; variety of fish-ing locations; horseback riding(with a moonlight option); andnine golf courses that accom-modate all skill levels. In wintermonths, skiing is a mere 35minutes away at Heavenly andMount Rose ski resorts.
Add one more item to theactivity list gambling. Thereare 10 casinos to test your gam-
ing skills. And like most smallcasino towns, Carson Cityoffers plenty of deals on afford-able lodging and food. It alsofeatures some very unique
restaurants and various lodg-ing options (see list below).
Theres a certain enchant-ment about Carson City thanksto its proud historical past.American author and humoristMark Twain spent three years(1861-64) in Carson City andnearby Virginia City. Back thenlocals probably knew him as
Samuel Clemens he wasamong the many who were try-ing to gain riches through goldand silver mining.
There are plenty of storiescirculating around town aboutTwain and also some quirkytales regarding Carson Citysfamed ghosts. The stories havebecome so popular thatevening walking tours are pro-vided, ushering groups of peo-ple around the quaint city
streets where some colorfultales are told of ghosts inhabit-ing homes, including the Gov-ernors Mansion.
Young or old, any visitor
shouldnt depart Carson Citywithout taking in some of theinteresting local historicalspots. Below are a few options.
Virginia & TruckeeRailroad
Taking this vintage steamand diesel-powered train onthe 16-mile mining route that
starts at Carson City and con-cludes in historic Virginia Cityshould be high on the prioritylist. Stories of the somewhatraucous silver era are revealedon the trek that passes throughtwo tunnels, and features viewsof abandoned mine shafts, oldcemeteries, and perhaps a baldeagle or other wildlife sight-ings.
Virginia CityAt least a few hours should
be spent in this eccentric town,one of the largest historicallypreserved districts in the U.S., where grimy prospectors
became instant millionaires.Many people walk around in1860s-period dress, one of themany eye-appealing facetswhile taking a stroll down theboarded sidewalks of its mainstreet. For history buffs, thereare 150-year-old churches,19th century mansions, andvarious museums. Take the
kids through the old FourthWard School and have them sitin an old school desk and learnhow strict a classroom was runin this authentically preserved1876 Victorian school building.And adults must visit at least acouple of the Old West saloons, where some tall tales arerevealed through memorabilia.
Nevada State MuseumToo much to see in one visit,
but give it a shot. Theres a life-size Columbian Mammoth anda fascinating walk-through sil-ver mine that feels eerilyauthentic. Also take a peek at
the old Carson City Mint. Over-all, there are 20 galleries andexhibits that reveal the SilverStates story.

Formality meets fami-ly friendly in this fineLos Lagos estate.
Its obvious when visitorsarrive that 9305 Los
Lagos Circle is somethingspecial.
Large magnolias and adrive-through car parkon a large corner lotmake the home and itsperfect location a LosLagos standout.
Balustrades andcolumns add to the dra-ma of the homes entry, asdo the double entrydoors, gleaming withbrilliant facets of glass.
With front-facing bal-conies that overlook thedrive, its easy to imaginethe home as Juliets bal-cony, or to picture a brideposing for photos aloft.
But if the front yardintrigues, the backyardwill stun.
A formal pool, large with scalloped ends the just-right size forswimming laps is thecenterpiece of a formalEuropean garden.
I was trying to create aminiaturized Versailles,the homeowner said.
His attempt was suc-cessful.
A border of hedgerows,
thoughtfully plannedlawn areas and perfectlyplaced rose bushes createa landscape that willtransport visitors acrossthe pond perhaps to
the Palace of VersaillesOrangerie or HamptonCourt Palace gardens.
With all its formality,the backyard has plentyof functionality, too.
Plums, peaches, pome-granate, pluots and year-round lemon trees are just some of the delec-
table edibles that can befound on the property. Araised vegetable gardenproduces a variety ofdelicious bounty as well.
But what good is tastyfood without a greatkitchen in which to pre-pare it?
This homes kitchen is abrilliant example of pair-ing formality with casualcomfort.
The great-room stylekitchen, which opens to alarge family room, wasdesigned with an enter-taining lifestyle in mind.
We designed thekitchen this way becausewe wanted to have spacefor two or three people

focal point of the home,the homeowner said.The sellers, who are the
original owners, routinelyentertain 50 or morefamily members andfriends during the holi-days.
The kitchen is filled with professional-gradeappliances with nameslike Dacor and Bosch.Double ovens, built-in
microwave, dishwasher,trash compactor, built-inrefrigerator, double sinks,wet island and oversizedpantry are key for everydream kitchen.
As functional as thehome is, its the beauty
and quality touches thatvisitors will notice.
The one thing I loveabout this home is thedetailed work all theboxed ceilings, crownmolding, cased windows
and boxed doors, saidKendra Bishop of theBishop Real EstateGroup. Theres so muchquality woodworkthroughout the home,and the property is
meticulously main-tained.
The home is filled with white wood crown, wainscoting, cabinetry,which marries with threefloor types Crema
Brazilian cherry woodand plush, seashell-whitecarpets.
From the dining roomstrey ceiling, dressed inbronzes and golds, to the
living rooms double-sided fireplace that leadsto a formal office orlibrary, filled with Brazil-ian cherry cabinetry andbuilt-in computer center,the homes builder paidattention to the smallestdetail.
But the drama wasntsaved for the downstairs. A sweeping staircaseleads visitors to the bril-
liantly lit upper level where guest suites andthe master bedroomawait.
Large enough to con-tain both oversized bedand a living room, themaster also includes a

the pools waterfalls waftto upstairs windows arelaxing music that buy-ers can fall asleep to.
The master bathincludes double vanities,jetted tub with view, dou-ble-headed shower and awater closet that includesa bidet, while the vanityarea also includes a sepa-rate makeup mirror andcounter all with lus-cious granite tops andopulent gold fixtures.
The master closet islarge enough to accom-
