Saving and Raising Lives: An Interview with #Petaluma's Lt. Jaclyn Cuevas Trosper

Recently we posted a story in the Petaluma Magazine about NATO Role 3 Multinational Medical Unit hospital team that saved the life of a Romanian Soldier at Kandahar Airfield in Afghanistan.  On March 30, 2014 this soldier suffered what would be fatal injuries after being struck by an IED.  The blast resulted in the death of another soldier and critically wounding four others who suffered from various injuries. What interested us about this article was a #Petaluman Lt. J.C. Trosper, aka Jaclyn Cuevas Trosper, is an intensive care unit and trauma nurse who was quoted in that article.  It was her team worked to save the life of this soldier. This week Lt. Trosper received nurse of the month award by her commanding officer.

Video Petaluma's 2014 Annual Art & Garden Festival

Video of the Making of the #Petaluma Mural by Maxfield Bala

You may have already seen the new mural created by Maxfield Bala that has gained attention recently. Maxfield and Andrew Bala just created a video now available on YouTube and Vimeo that shows Maxfield create the artwork with a time elapse and him working of scaffolding.

The mural is 20 ft. tall and 40 ft. wide and it is visible from East Washington in downtown near the bridge and Water street. This had to be a challenge for the artist because the surface, or Maxfield’s canvas so to speak, twisted and uneven corrugated metal. The finishing piece would not make you suspect the surface was uneven.

#Petaluma's David Best Builds 2014 Burning Man Temple In Petaluma

You may have been wondering, what is all that activity going on across from the feed mill downtown. There was about 40 people working under several tents surrounded by wood material.  Over the sound of hammers, nail guns, and saws people were busily communicating and working in concert to build something.  A woman stepped out of her car in front of me as I was looking on.  I asked her what they were doing.  She told me they were building the Burning Man Temple.  I asked if it was “thee” Burning Man Temple? And she replied “Yes”.  I was talking to Jules Mancilla, aka “Little Wing”, who seemed to be like a foreman on the job.  However she told me that no one is really in charge. The people come together and work to build the structure. Burning Man is a week-long annual event held in the Black Rock Desert in northern Nevada.

This is the first time this structure will be built in Petaluma. However it won't be the first time this structure was built by a Petaluman. The man in charge is David Best from Petaluma. David started building the temple in the year 2000 and has become a legend for Burning Man attendees.  Since then the event has grown so large that permits limit to sell 70,000 tickets that are sure to sell out and a lot of people will be disappointed that they will not be able to go.
