Imagine

Imagine a Nevada County no longer riven by factions fighting over growth; where open space is unthreatened, where housing is affordable, where people of all income levels live cheek by jowl, not glommed onto one another's throats.

Imagine sailing through the Brunswick basin at noontime with ease.

Imagine heading over to the Sunday Night Movie at the Nevada Theater on the spur of the moment, knowing that there'll still be seats.

Imagine always being able to get a table at your favorite restaurant.

Be careful what you wish for.
