May 18, 2013 - Panga Mania
Yet another panga boat was found Friday morning on the shores of Arroyo Quemada Beach, just north of the remote Refugio State Beach. This seems to
be a monthly occurrence here in Santa Barbara County, which leads many Edhatters to question the security of our local shores. In this specific instance, the
suspects have not been caught and the Santa Barbara Sheriff's Office is asking the public to be aware of the "ever-growing problem."
In the news: Roger reported a stabbing that happened at the Motel 6 in Carpinteria, the suspect is still on the loose. Edhatters discuss papers on their
driveways and the Amgen Tour photos have us captivated. Read these stories and more, below.
