Window on the World Column | The Year That Was and the One to Come

Lucy Jensen
I’ve never been much of a fan of the ā€œYear in Reviewā€ news magazines that are a key post in the ground at the end of each year. I don’t mind recalling the good stuff; but I would not choose to go there with...

Funny Papers Again Column | Looking Back and Seeing Ahead

Before I get into the bits and pieces of today’s column, let me offer a mea culpa regarding some misinformation in last week’s column. I stated that KCHS Class of 1972 has their 50th class reunion scheduled for the same date as the Classes...

Window on the World Column | Remodeling My Attitude

I work with houses all the time — empty and full. ā€œIt’s much easier to sell if the house is empty,ā€ I hear myself say over and over to potential listing clients. No dealing with sellers and access; no having to climb over Aunt...

Still Carin’ About King City Column: Beautification Week 2020

The year 2020 finds us with a Beautification Week unlike we’ve had in 28 years. We’re calling it a scaled-back version. Group events like the extra garbage collection provided by Waste Management, the Citywide Yard Sale and the Chamber/Rotary Kick-off BBQ were all canceled...

Window on the World Column: Always look on the bright side

Always look on the bright side... Easier said than done, I know. These have been some unprecedented months in the life of a year — and we haven’t even made it to six of the blessed things yet! I recently found myself popping into the...
