Although I'm don't reside in the second district, I appreciated the bit of history lesson on Lake Gregory. Beautiful lake and a big thank you to Supervisor Janice Rutherford.

Some of my favorite childhood memories were created at lake Gregory. Fishing, paddle boarding, lounging on the beach after cutting school. Lovely place, the next best thing to Arrowhead.

A very special woman who is famous in her own right Elizabeth uribe owned a cabin up there for Holiday trips she offered her cabin to my girlfriend for many years and my girlfriend and I never we're interested. One Summer we thought we would give it a try thinking it would be a cabin that would be unheated with a minimum of amenities. We got to the cabin late at night around 2:30 a.m. we were surprised the condition of the cabin it was beautiful with a two-story convenience had all the amenities showers bathtub kitchens plenty of parking in a wonderful outdoor balcony walkway. Me and my girlfriend went to that cabin for many years off and on weekends or holidays we would offer Elizabeth money for the experience she never took our money. I did install some ceiling fans for her that were needed that came in handy for summer and a few other odds and end things outdoor GFI plug . Very quiet place to visit and vacation the locals are very friendly I became acquainted with some as we had a conversation to be on the lookout for people loitering in front of cabins that are people's homes too. I enjoyed lake Gregory with my girlfriend Brianna we had a lot of fun up there for many years off and on on vacations. I enjoy telling stories about crestline and lake Gregory to people. Great video. I may have some video footage of Elizabeth's cabin. Unfortunately she has passed away she lived a good life she was struck in with polio when she was 15 years old she came from the country of Chile when she was out of college she came to the United States to get a good job she was in a wheelchair all of her adult life from the effects of polio it never stopped her from pursuing her dream of coming to America and finding a good job. She told me one time the reason why she pushed herself to get a college degree in order to find a high paying job she wanted to have friends and she said with a lot of money I can offer people food and invite them over to my home. That was why she told me she works so hard to earn a good living and to have enough money to spend it on people Elizabeth was a great person and I told her I was there for her friendship to spend time with her not because of the food she offered me. I would always bring her some little surprise something from the supermarket watermelon or cantaloupe she couldn't eat any fried foods she had to watch her diet. You can find her story on the internet if you care to look for her Lizabeth Uribe . She told me her doctor told her she was a 1 percenter in her group of people with polio most people with polio do not do as much with their lives as Lizabeth had done with her life . And it was an honor to know her and to say she was my friend . Sincerely Joey ⚓ PS she actually wrote a book about her life I urged her to do it about 10 years before she got it done she told me she put my name and mentioned me in her book she called me her savior a few months before her passing I did some work for her and told her a autograph book with her signature would be sufficient for payment she agreed and was happy to sign the book to me with her well wishes rest in peace Lizabeth Uribe 🌹
