I'm a Libertarian living in Humboldt County, CA. I've lived here in Eureka since 1973 and joined the Libertarian Party in 1992. This blog will mostly focus on local political issues, but I may stray into state and national issues as well, when I can't help myself. Please post your comments by clicking on the "comments" link at the bottom of each post. Although I do moderate comments, you need not be a registered user to post them.
Humboldt Redwoods State Park at Weott makes the list of the top ten haunted campgrounds of Northern California. Hat tip to local LP busy body, Tammy Newcomb, for the link.

Superstitious people are funny.
Is it funny or sad? Making jest at people who walk around with their heads in the clouds seems like its almost as bad as making fun of kids who ride the short bus.
I'm fairly certain that the boogie man makes his home at that campground.
How strange. I was just reading about state parks now being UN parks. All they need is a "crisis" and the land is theirs. Are ghosts a crisis? Tribal spirits? How many locals have known about these stories of haunts? Not many. Gosh, someone is calling up the magical create a crisis spirit aren't they.
Heres the unesco link.
Heck, I'll just copy/paste KrisAnne Hall's post. I don't think she'll mind.
"Just how much of America is still American "Owned?"
Do you know about the World Heritage Treaty? Do you know about our Governors, Commissioners of Agriculture, our State Legislators selling off our land to the United Nations for money and promises?
Currently the UN controls 21 geographical areas in Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Idaho, Kentucky, Missouri, Montana, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Philadelphia, Virginia, Washington, and Wyoming. Control comes from the World Heritage Treaty.
Where is your State on "the List?": http://goo.gl/aZFuhk
By this Treaty, a World Heritage site is a geographical area that is of global environmental or cultural significance. Declaring an area a World Heritage site establishes that governments must submit to the monitoring of these sites by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). UNESCO then has the power and authority to seize control these sites if the World Heritage Committee determines intervention is necessary to properly maintain the sites or some “crisis” has occurred that requires intervention.
It is absolutely clear on the UNESCO World Heritiage Center website that when our States allowed the Federal Government to declare these lands World Heritage sites we established that our States and the land owners, must submit to the monitoring of these sites by the UNESCO.
Read how one State has embraced the UN World Heritage Treaty: http://goo.gl/r7c27p (Not likely the State you are thinking of.)
It also established that UNESCO then has the power and authority to seize control these sites if the World Heritage Committee determines intervention is necessary to properly maintain the sites. That mutable definition of “properly maintain” is now left solely to those who have proven to have no respect for State sovereignty, no respect for private land ownership, and an overwhelming goal to eliminate productivity in the name of global preservation.
Why else would we need an organization whose entire objective is to protect geographical areas that have a global environmental or cultural significance? Let there be one endangered lizard or owl, one perceived danger in the use of fertilizers, one farmer growing a crop that is not environmentally symbiotic, or one rancher with too many cows per acre and we will see how much autonomy our States and our land owners really have.
Our founders warned us of the destruction brought by foreign governments.
John Adams, in his inaugural address of 1797 warned that if we were not careful, if our Government could be “influenced by foreign nations, by flattery or menaces, by fraud or violence, by terror or intrigue, the Government may not be the choice of the American People, but of foreign nations. It may be foreign nations that govern us and not we, the people, who govern ourselves.”
