Just thought I'd pass along some info on the Solar Project that is going on at the west end of our play ground.
Check out the video.

Finally, we see the illusive desert tortoise! I knew they were out there, and now i know where they are! Across the street from us, where all the big machines are!

We're lucky they didn't locate this plant(or others)in the middle of our lake!

Thanks so much for posting!

I've never considered myself a "greenie" but conservationism goes way back in my bloodline. The more I read about this project, the madder I become.

There are so many things wrong with this! Don't get me started....

I like the idea of taking the 1.6 billion dollars, giving it to home owners to instal solar panels on their roofs.

Where is the "Like" button.

Now you know that could never work--it's just downright un-Merican. Why would you want to take away all those jobs protecting tortises?

Check out the new view looking west from the playa.
Sunsets will never be the same.

Thank you for this, and for the folks that went out there and met with the BLM.

As friends of the lake, we all have a vested interest in making sure our voices are heard.
