We are only 5 days away from Mother's Day! Buy her the gift of Massage! As you well know, moms are constantly taking care of others…whether it’s under normal circumstances when they’re shuttling kids to and from school and practices or preparing dinner for the entire family, or, while they’re stuck at home - finding ways to keep everyone active, homeschooling and making sure the family stays in good health …they are always putting someone else first.

It’s Bike Month in Carson City, and the ladies’ Tuesday bike ride up Ash Canyon has returned for the season. You’ll need a helmet and a trail-ready bike if you’d like to join in. A hike up Goni Road with Muscle Powered will be worth the views and a good work-out. Mile High Jazz Band has teamed up with vocalist Jakki Ford for this month’s performance; you’ll find them tonight at Living the Good Life. Learn more about how the internet affects our lives during the free presentation by Sierra Nevada Forums.
