The Chichester Bear House was attracting visitors on Saturday.
Genoa, Nev. — The Chichester Bear House was busy on Saturday night as residents in search of some Christmas cheer found some thanks to Roy Nisja, his son and grandson. Good luck finding Christmas lights in the stores. A random check of my usual sources have shown the pickings are pretty slim.
A Christmas parade is scheduled for Topaz Ranch Estates 4:30 p.m. Dec. 19 starting at the community center. I’ll make a run down there at some point during the week with my camera.
