Opinion
Attention Lake County residents and trades people who are concerned about SmartMeters:
I have a concept for a SmartMeter cage that would prevent PG&E/Wellington from installing SmartMeters on our homes while this SmartMeter debate plays out.
Problem is that I don't have the tools or experience to build one.
What I am looking for is a trades person with sheet metal and/or welding skills who would like to help the community and make some extra money while doing a good thing.
Also I want to hear from residents willing to purchase a SmartMeter cage and a secondarily people who are interested in purchasing or fabricating signage in bulk.

The Lower Lake Historic School Preservation Committee would like to thank the generous outpouring of support and donations which, once again, made our 2011 Luncheon and Fashion Show a great success.
Special thanks go to our raffle donors, including Kevin Ness Jewelers, Konocti Vista Casino, Aloha Bay Candle Co., Garden Court, Cactus Grill, Twin Pine Resort and Casino, Langtry Winery, Highlands Nursery, Mugshots, Six Sigma Vineyard and Winery, Hidden Valley Pet Palace, Ting's Thai Restaurant, Small Town Ceramics, Lower Lake Coffee Co., Barreda's Lower Lake Feed, Robinson Rancheria Resort and Casino, Howard's Grotto, Lake County Winegrape commission and Lisa's Sizes 3-60.
Food donors included IGA Foods Etc., Costco, Safeway and Chic Le Chef.
Volunteer kitchen staffing by Bill Fredriksson, Sheila O'Hara and Doug Carter “took the cake.”
Other volunteer duties were held by Marybeth and Ron Alteneder, Judy Mullens, Derrick Harvey and Linda Lake.
Our “celebrity servers” this year were Supervisor Jim Comstock, Ted Comito, Ned Munger and Tom McFarling.
Entertainment by The Sweet Adelines was also a treat. A barber shop quartet never sounded so sweet!
Also, we certainly appreciated the fine fashions of Lisa's Sizes 3-60, with models Suzy Rudofker, Carol Hewlitt, Lisa McDonald, April Fenk, Teddy Duke, Judy Mullens and from Carlé High School, Nia Edmonds. Our Mistress of Ceremonies and Fashion Maven was Shannon Gunier, her 16th year at the helm!
Thanks, too, to the students of Carlé High School for busing, cleaning up and smiling throughout the day.
Lastly, thanks to all our guests, who had a very good time, warming everyone's heart with the Hat Parade and other fun.
All proceeds go toward improvements at the Lower Lake Historic Schoolhouse Museum.
So thanks all, and see you next year!
Tom McFarling is president of the Lower Lake Historic School Preservation Committee, based in Lower Lake, Calif.
