I don’t know how to write about last Tuesday’s car accident on Twisp River Road that resulted in the death of one local 19-year-old girl, as well as serious injuries to two other young people from our area.

Many a mystery has been unscrambled on the back pages of this publication. I hope that the great Malaga missing newspaper saga will be the next one. “Ah, Málaga!” you are thinking: Spain, Pablo Picasso, Guernica, Costa del Sol.
