Issue: July 05, 2018
Morning, readers!
Have you recovered from the mid-week holiday yet? (I bet not—that's OK.) To cheer up your day and week, the CN&R presents its annual Pet Issue! So, check out all the cute little fur babies that enrich our lives.
In other news: The Chico Scrap Metal debacle may be drawing to a close; a local arrest in Chico highlights the problem of bogus landlords offering housing contracts—and even keys!—to unsuspecting scam victims; there's a new vegetarian/vegan spot in town; and a local chef shares his burger secrets.
All in a week's work.
Till next time,
Meredith J. Cooper, managing editor
