OAKHURST–Where has the time gone? A twelfth of the year is just about over. It’s almost Christmas again. All kidding aside, time flies, but there’s plenty to keep everyone energized and involved. With the beautiful weather we’ve been enjoying, there’s no reason not to get out and about. Go take a photography class in Yosemite, explore the many opportunities for yoga and visit our local wineries where they often blend the wine with excellent local music. For seniors there’s a two-hour safe driving class at the Oakhurst CHP office to keep your driving skills sharp.
