Once a cost-cutting target of
the U.S. Post Office 12-odd years
ago, the old Station A Post Office
in the center of Auburn’s Old
Town enclave remains a monument to the town’s past, and to
modern efficiency. And those
who dispatch their holiday letters
and packages from this historic
location can delight in the
ambiance and charm this unique
functional museum offers.

Esry Keeps History Alive
by Charlotte Sanchez-Kosa
Many of those who utilize the old Auburn Post Office say that the branch
wouldn’t be what it is without contract manager Jackie Esry of Meadow Vista,
who has run the facility for a dozen years.
On any given day, Esry arrives to work in the morning and then she and an
employee spend about a half hour to an hour sorting through mail to be put in
boxes. While this happens, the window is open to take care of customers coming
into the branch. She said activity during the day varies by the number of customers
who come into the branch. She also said there is paperwork which needs to be
done at the end of the day.
No stranger to the Auburn area, Esry and her husband opened an antique shop
on Commercial Street in 1985 and stayed there for more than 20 years.
“While we were at the antique business and they were trying to close the post
office at that time, we talked it over and decided it was something we would
really want to do, so I put in a bid to manage.”
She came in with the lowest bid but the post office wanted the bid to be even
lower, so she had to lower it twice before they came to an agreement. In May
1997, she opened up for business and has been there ever since.
“Just knowing I am doing the community a service by keeping the post office
open makes me happy. It’s a historical place,” she says. “Too many times things
like this are eliminated or go by the wayside.”

“Previous to that, I guess the post

She hopes that one day

relief from its monthly rent
obligation and secure the old
post office from the threat of
closure in the future. While she’s
pleased that the facility is safe for

This small branch, however,
remained operational for many
years, even though at times it
faced closure. In 1996, postal
officials again considered the idea
of shutting it down. That’s when
businesses in the area and
residents came out full-force to
save it—some even lying down
in the street in front of the
facility—according to longtime
area business owner Linda
Robinson. She recalls that in
1996 when closure of the facility
seemed imminent, business
owners and area residents rallied.
“When we initiated plans to
save the post office back then, it
was a grassroots effort,”
Robinson says. Many people
picketed in protest. Gary Lord,
owner of Sierra Moon, was very
active in the grassroots program,
along with several other community members and city officials.
While today the little post
office is not a beacon of profitability, it gets by. Auburn Postmaster David Beaudoin says there
are no plans to close the facility
at this time.
But there is one person who
worries that one day this historic
operation might be history. 72year-old, Jackie Esry, of Meadow
Vista, has run the post office for
12 years, helps pay the rent, along
with Old Town Business Association. She says the historic
significance of the facility is
important.
Grants have been considered as

Car Dealership Swap
While Auburn’s devastated
auto-row district along Highway
49 received yet another blow as
one dealer shut its doors, another
dealer from Grass Valley announced plans to open its doors
in this troubled neighborhood
for car dealers.
Auburn Buick Pontiac GMC
at 2725 Grass Valley Highway in
North Auburn shuttered its
doors during the Thanksgiving
Day holiday weekend. Sixteen
employees found themselves out
of work as signage and office
furniture was soon whisked away.
A lack of sales due to the
economic recession and uncertainty generated by congressional
bailout hearings for the financially strapped American
automotive industry brought the
dealership down.
It’s the fourth in a series of
dealership closures in the Auburn
area that began earlier this year.

COPS & ROBBERS
Dec. 8 A South Auburn resident investigating a suspicious noise
outside her home saw three males near her freshly damaged
vehicle. Police responded and found the three men a short distance
away. Two of the men stopped, after being instr ucted by the police,
and the third walked away from the scene. As additional officers
arrived, the third individual was located and subdued after a brief
scuffle involving the deployment of pepper-spray. One of the two
cooperating suspects was determined to have had no involvement,
while the other, a 24-year-old from Weimar was arrested on
suspicion of vandalism and being drunk in public. The third
suspect, a 24-year-old Grass Valley native, sporting newly ir ritated
ocular cavities, was ar rested for alleged vandalism, being drunk in
public, and resisting arrest.
Dec. 10 A 21-year-old Auburn man was cited for possessing less
than an ounce of marijuana.
Dec. 12 Already calling the Placer County Jail home, a 25-yearold transient from Georgetown was arrested for an alleged autotheft.
Dec. 14 A 22-year-old homeless man was arrested for allegedly
resisting arrest and for vandalism. He was booked into the county
jail.

Surviving SAC Airport
During the Holiday Season
As Sacramento International
Airport prepares for the onslaught of travelers during the
holiday season, travelers and
those who are meeting and
greeting passengers should keep a
few things in mind.
If you are planning to park in
the Terminal A Hourly Parking
Lot or want to take advantage of
the new Cell Phone Lot option,
keep in mind that hourly parking
has moved from the Terminal A
Parking Garage to a lot near
Terminal A. Parking or waiting
along airport roadways and the
curb is strictly prohibited by
federal regulations. If you need
to wait, please take advantage of
the cell phone lot.
Want to know the secret to the
fastest entry and exit at any lot?
Use the airport’s ParkSmart
system. Simply insert your credit
card into the ticket machine
upon entry and enter the same
card upon exit at any credit card
only booth to automatically be
charged the correct amount and
be on your way in minutes. Also,
tune your radio to 530 AM when
within five miles of the airport
and check overhead signs to
know where parking is available
on your arrival.
Be sure to allow yourself 90
minutes to two hours to check
in, process through the security
checkpoint and get to your gate;
pack all valuables in your carry-
repairs for the German-made
cars at its old location on Hwy.
49 near Bell Rd.).
At the same time, the Grass
Valley Ford Lincoln Mercury
dealership is setting up shop at
the old Maita Ford location at
1650 Grass Valley Highway. The
28-year-old dealership, co-owned
by Don Neronde Sr. and Don
Neronde Jr., will open in the
new location at the beginning of
the year. The dealership will be
named Auburn Ford Lincoln
Mercury and will offer up to 200
new and used vehicles. The
Neronde’s also own a similar
dealership in Roseville.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Where will it End?
Do you know that the funds
for the Homeowner and Renter
Assistance Program were
“removed” from the 2008/2009
State Budget? Does anyone care
except those of us who are
affected by this? Once again the
state budget is being “balanced”
on the backs of those who need
every bit of this funding to help
keep us in our homes.
Additionally, we were notified
by SMD-1 Wastewater Treatment
Plant Compliance giving us the
“option” of where we want our
wastewater to be treated—here
in Auburn or piped to Lincoln—
we weren’t given the choice of
whether we wanted to pay for it,
just where it is to be done. Is this
cost another ‘tax’? As I see it our
costs will go up by about $22/
month, equaling $264/year, just
for 2009-2010; and will continue
to go up until the years 20232024 when the amount we’ll be
paying will be $1,907 per year.
A solution might be for the
sewer agency to budget their
income and expenses and build a
reserve account so these compliances can be done without
hardship to customers.
So, we don’t get the funds
from the State, and we get an
added tax by the County. Where
will it end?

WE SAY
The Other Side of Auburn
by Gary Moffat
Reclaiming the Spirit of
Christmas
For the first time in many
years, I have been moved by the
spirit of Christmas.
Owning a wine shop and
restaurant puts me squarely in the
“feel-good” business, and even
though our national economy is
in the tank, people come to what
was once the Union Saloon in
Old Town for the expressed
purpose of leaving all of that
behind, if only for a couple of
hours.
The building—known
popularly as “the round corner”
during the Civil War—is a sturdy
old structure that has cleaned up
nicely and is decked out for
holidays in grand style, festooned
in garland, tiny white lights,
wreaths and red satin bows.
Inside, the windows, door and
back bar are wrapped in the same
materials, with a seven-foot
Christmas tree as the centerpiece.
Because the garland is artificial,
however, the fresh pine smell of
the season is woefully absent.
Holiday songs—from Country
Western covers to Bing Crosby
originals—are pumped endlessly
from Sirius satellite radio.
Most nights in December, as
the party season swings into high
gear, the place has been packed
with people and full of joy.
Guests laugh in groups or pairs
of people enjoy the moment
quietly. Everyone seems to depart
sated and thankful; it makes me
feel good to know that this place
can be an oasis of calm during a
time in which most everyone
feels pressured by the titanic
issues that face us now, as well as
the unknown that awaits us in
the New Year.
It can be very difficult to get
sucked into the true spirit of
Christmas if you are standing
behind the bar rather that sitting
at it; taking dinner orders rather
than placing them. Focusing on
creating a great experience for
others takes so much juice that it
diminishes one’s ability to enjoy
the season personally. By the
time December 25th rolls

again for another 325 days.
Over the past 24 hours,
however, the shroud of Scrooge
has been lifted for me after
emerging from a snow laden
winter wonderland.
In October I moved to a new
home near Foresthill, a solitary
place, far removed from any hint
of civilization. The country road
that takes me home is a succession of twists and drops and
climbs that is for much of the
way in the shadow of tall pines.
All along the ridges, sun leaks—
sometime streams—through
breaks in the tree line, illuminating the occasional oak fully
ablaze.
It seems that every time I do
the drive, I ask myself the same
questions: “How and why do I
get to live here?” This just isn’t
natural for someone who spent
most of his life living on flat land
and working in high-rise office
towers.
As much as I appreciate the
beauty of where I live, I was not
prepared for what awaited me as
I drove home Sunday evening. It
was raining in Auburn, but as I
drove higher up Foresthill Road,
the rain changed to a snow
shower.
Monday morning when I
awoke, something was different.
The room was darker than usual
because the skylight above my
head was rendered useless by a
thick blanket of snow. I opened
the blinds and light flooded in,
reflecting fiercely off the snowcovered meadow. I opened the
door and stepped outside into a
steady stream of white stuff. The
hundreds of Ponderosa pine trees
ringing the meadow and in the
forest behind it sagged under the
weight of tons of freshly fallen
flakes. Snow clung in great
mounds on sturdy boughs, a
green base piled high like a real
New York-style pastrami sandwich.
The most stunning element of
the entire scene was the total,
profound absence of sound.
There was no rustling of trees, no
birds in the air, no noise of any
kind. Simply silence... nearly a
vacuum, in f act.
I went back inside and turned
on the television to get a weather
report, but my receiver could not
find the satellite, no doubt
because the dish was obscured
with snow. The house was chilly,
but I decided not to light a fire
in the stove; instead I aimed to
get enough clothes packed for a
few days and head down the
hill... if I could make it up my
steep drive to the road to
Foresthill. With a busy week
ahead and a storm going full
bore, I did not want to get stuck
at elevation.
After pulling my truck out of
the garage, I glanced back at the
house and saw that it was
enveloped in snow – a Sierra
gingerbread original. A backdrop
of frosty pine trees completed the
picture; the only thing missing
was a curl of smoke from the
chimney.
It dawned on me that in the
almost nine years I have lived in
California, I have rarely seen
snow fall. In fact, when I dialed
my transmission into its lowest
four-wheel drive position, it was
for only the second time in more
than four years of ownership. My
Midwest driving skills would be
called upon for the next half
hour of negotiating snow-packed
roads.
Pulling up the long, steep
grade was not a problem, and
when I reached the road to
Foresthill it was snow-covered
but passable. Still I was careful in
the corners and took my time
judiciously, a process that enabled
appreciation of a most incredible
scene—miles of pines weeping
with snow. I turned one corner
and encountered a flock of more
than a dozen turkeys, none of

No Bugs at the Party
We all worry about bugs at a
summer picnic; but bugs at a
holiday party? The bug in
question is the “24 hour bug”
correctly known as food-borne
illness. Many people will be
attending or hosting a gettogether this holiday season.
Food served buffet-style is often
a part of the celebration.
Whether you are the host or a
guest, to ensure a safe event, keep
these tips in mind.
The Two-Hour Rule
Foods should not sit at room
temperature for more than two
hours. Keep track of how long
foods have been sitting on the
buffet table and discard anything
that has been out two hours or
more.
Keep Hot Foods Hot and
Cold Foods Cold
Hot foods should be held at
140 degrees Fahrenheit or
warmer. On the buffet table, you
can keep hot foods hot with
chafing dishes, slow cookers, and
warming trays. Cold foods should
be held at 40 degrees Fahrenheit
or colder. Keep foods cold by
nesting dishes in bowls of ice.
Otherwise, use small serving trays

Auburn Farmers’ Market
Bustling with Winter Activity
The Market was bustling by 7:30 a.m. last Saturday –
even with the winter hours of 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.
Customers are really taking the “Think Auburn First”
theme seriously. The atmosphere is so exciting and
everyone benefits – sellers and buyers. The winter
produce is beautiful. Dark green and bright chartreuse
of lettuces and escaroles, the towering clusters of
romanesco cauliflower, leeks, and green garlic with
collard greens. Wines, coffee, biscotti, spices, olive oil,
and marinades all make good compliments to a
basket brimming with fresh produce. Grapefruit,
lemons, mandarins, meats, eggs and fresh bakery
goods round off the bounty. Last week Dan Macon
had, in addition to his lamb, a few fresh cut
evergreens as well as Manzanita trees. The market
booth was busy distributing complimentary gift baskets
and bags, and of course, the excitement of the $50
gift certificate raffle. What a lively meeting place to
shop for good food and eat a warm tamale! See you

It was it in that moment that a
feeling of true, unrestrained wellbeing flooded through my
veins... a sensation of comfort
and joy; of being completely at
ease and at peace. After a very
long absence, it could only be the
spirit of Christmas finally
returning to me.

Save the Spring Musical
In an effort to bring back the
annual Placer High School Spr ing
Musical in 2009, a group of the
school’s alumni are producing a
var iety show fundraiser on the two
days following Christmas. The
show, “Seasons of Love,” will play
at 7:15 p.m. on Dec. 26 and 27 at
the Placer High School Auditorium.
Supporter s who can’t attend the
benefit—such as those out-oftown for the holidays—can send
tax-deductible donations in the
form of a check made out to
“Placer High School” with “Spring
Musical” in the Memo Line to P.O.
Box 9155,Aubur n, CA 95604.
Tickets can be purchased over
the phone or at the door for a
minimum donation of $10. Call
(530) 852-2708 to purchase tickets
over the phone.
Four Days of Required Time
Off
Placer County Supervisors
passed a plan to cut costs in
county government Dec. 9,
including requiring county
employees to take off four days
without pay before the end of
the fiscal year. The furlough plan
calls for county offices to close
Dec. 26, Feb. 13, April 13 and
May 22.
The driving force behind the
mandatory time-off cutbacks—
which will save up to $2
million—is a projected $9.6
million loss in revenue for the
year. Despite adopting conservative budgets in recent years,
analyst Jeff Bell says the economic slide of the last few
months have put pressure on the
current budget. Property and
sales taxes, along with public
safety revenues and nvestments,
are all down dramatially.

La Bou Reopens After Fire
La Bou, the popular local
eatery along Highway 49, has
reopened after being closed for
six weeks as a result of fire
damage it suffered from a fire at
the adjacent Jamba Juice franchise. Initial reports were that a
spark from a faulty blender
started the indoor fire. Both
businesses are in the same
building and La Bou’s had
extensive smoke damage.
“Our first day back and there
were more customers than I
expected,” says owner Arlene Be.
“We are happy to see everybody
come back. It’s nice to have such
loyal customers.”
Be says Placer Sentinel readers
can receive 10 percent off their
order as part of its grandreopening celebration. The
restaurant is located at 2150
Grass Valley Highway.

from 12 to 120 bottles per
minute in anticipation of
producing a whopping 200,000
cases per year. At the same time, a
downturn in the economy has
forced the owners to reflect on
the future – though that’s not
necessarily a bad thing, says
Nissen.
“It’s allowed us to broaden our
viewpoint,” he explains. “Not
only can we make cider, but we
can use the exact same equipment to make all-natural soda.
We can make a lot of products.”
As a kickoff to the new vision,
Fox Barrel in November rolled
out a small batch of its first
seasonal specialty—a mulling
cider made with fresh lavender
and spices that, according to the
label, is “certain to warm your
body and spirit on a cold winter’s
eve.” Another seasonal cider is in
the works for spring.
“After doing the same thing
long enough, it can become
systematic and the artistry kind
of goes away,” Nissen says. “This
is a way to invite people to stop
by and try something new. And it
keeps it fun for us.”
Fox Barrel Cider Company is
located at 1213 S. Auburn St. in
Colfax. A tasting room is open
daily from noon to 5 p.m. For
details, call (530) 346-9699.
