crescent city ca information: Crescent City Municipal Swimming Pool - Wow - 10/12/09 11:49 PM
The Crescent City/Fred Endert Municipal Swimming Pool just underwent a complete makeover and is it something to see.  Take a look:
The swimming pool has a salt water system that uses significantly less chlorine than old technology swimming pools. This type of pool is easier on the eyes and skin.

Paul Bunyan's babe loses his head...literally
Babe's weakening neck was not match for Del Norte County rain and wind last week when his head fell off directly on the ground in front of him. 
According to folklore, Bunyan found a freezing Babe in a snowdrift when he was just a young ox, which is where the creature's color comes from. But though Bunyan was able to nurse Babe back to health, he could do nothing to save his sidekick's 35-foot tall replica at the Trees of Mysteryattraction, located just north of Klamath.
Don't fret, however.  Babe's head is scheduled for a replant.
