The Whiskey Shivers' Long, Tall Video For "Gimme All Your Lovin'"
There's not just one Austin roots band that knows how to produce a video that must be watched a bajillion times to be believed. While The Possum Posse's "Guy On a Buffalo
" series has proved to be quite the Internet phenomenon, the video for theWhiskey Shivers
' "Gimme All Your Lovin'" is perhaps as trippy as a rootsy bluegrass can get.
I've been obsessed with this video since catching the band live last weekend at the new-ish White Horse Inn on Austin's increasingly cool Eastside. On Saturday night, in a packed room twice the size of Adair's, the Austin hillbilly string collective, featuring stand-up bass, acoustic guitar, banjo and fiddle, didn't just happen to be the band on a small stage shoved into the corner of the room. They joyfully controlled the joint, regardless of whether they were meant to be mere background noise or not.

With jig-dancing and odd combinations of drunken dosey-does on display in front of the floor level performance area, the White Horse transformed from mere bar into barn-dance. And, by the way, the group's chops and lively performance merited all the hootin' and hollerin'.
This isn't to be taken as a Dallas vs. Austin post, but as an it's-fun-to-find-new-bands post. Give the video a try, maybe look for them next time you inevitably visit your friends down South, and you'll see why I've been obsessed with these guys all week.

Rakeem Christmas has now become an enormous part of the equation for Syracuse, and the freshman stepped up with the spotlight on him Saturday. Rak City has been forced into action after the loss of Fab, and had his best game of his collegiate career, ripping down 11 boards and swatting 3 shots to go along with 8 points. He played a very intelligent game, and didn't try to do too much on the offensive end. He also avoided foul trouble against big Jordan Henriquez. There's room for improvement, as Rak and SU allowed K-State to nab 25 offensive board. But in the second half, no one looked more confident than the freshman, who admitted after the game that the long tournament breaks aided in his season-high 34 minutes. "The TV timeouts definitely helped me. It allowed me to catch my breath, grab some water, and get back out there. It's really a good feeling. Blocking shots, getting rebounds, scoring. When I get going, I get going sometimes." Rak's next challenge will be even bigger. The ...

There is a new group of women in the running to become America's Next Top Model, but is one of them plus size? Judge Ashley Graham is still on the hunt.
"Unfortunately, it didn't happen for this round, but that's alright," Graham said of casting a plus size stunner in this season's group of contestants. "Hopefully for season two—I'm looking for the woman who wins to be plus size. I think it would be so epic."
"You do not see enough women of color on the runways just like you don't see enough women my size on the runways, so this is very important to have it be a diverse group," she told E! News.
Times have certainly changed since the hit show debuted in 2003 when iPhones, Twitter and Instagram were years away from dominating everyday life. Now, models are one-man bands who are as much moguls as they are pretty faces.
"We're looking for somebody who can actually brand themselves and create something and have a legacy like Tyra [Banks]," fellow judge and stylist Law Roach explained. "You can't just be a pretty face anymore," Graham added.
Jean Claude Dhien for VH1
At just 26, she's graced magazine covers, starred in movies, performed music and worked as the spokeswoman of international brands. "I really only wanted to get involved with this season if I get to elaborate on what I think it takes to become an incredible superstar supermodel, which is having your own business, having your own brand, having a following, having people admire you, look up to you, be inspired by you," Ora told E! News. "What do they have that people are going to want to imitate?"
Taylor Hill/FilmMagic
"It was very important for me to talk to her—we're talking about someone who's been doing this show for 15 years," she said of the icon. "There's some things that I don't want to change like the cycle [and] the cards. There's some iconic things that you just cant take out of America's Next Top Model."
Instead, they're adding new modeling tasks that have never been done before in the series and setting up meet and greet's with Hollywood's most prevalent stars. "I'm never going to try and fill up her footsteps," Ora said. "I'm just going to create new ones."
"Anything that anybody says to you, you have to take with a grain of salt," Graham advised. "Sometimes it's going to be productive [to make] you a better model or a better businesswoman, and sometimes it's just haters."

A brilliant orator and talented strategist, Honoré Mercier became Leader of the Quebec Liberal Party in 1883 and Quebec Premier on January 29, 1887.
Born in 1840, he was admitted to the Quebec Bar in 1865 and rapidly gained notoriety as a lawyer and Editor of the Courrier de Sainte-Hyacinthe newspaper. He also wrote for the Montreal daily Le Temps.
In October 1887, he convened the first interprovincial conference to discuss provincial autonomy and federal subsidies. He also gave the impetus to the settling of Quebec's heartland by creating the Quebec department of Agriculture and Colonization in 1888, all the while supporting the expansion of the railways and an expanding dairy industry.
He was re-elected Premier in 1891.

Well, it is finally official (I am late with this post, as my blog has been having issues). ReSharper 2.0 is now unleashed for public 'stable' consumption. What is ReSharper? In my opinion, one of the most kick-butt tools for code-centric .Net 2.0 developers. The list of features of this product is fantastic, for me the top of the list are :
- Refactorings (too many to name)
- Move type to new namespace
- Code Generation features inline with TDD developers
- Find Usages - Rocks
- Go To Type - CTRL -N (start typing and list will filter to match types with name)
- Go To File - CTRL - SHIFT - N (start typing and list will filter)
- Integrated unit test runner
- Live Templates (extremely easy template syntax for creating your own Live templates)
- File Templates
- NAnt and MSBuild intellisense
I could go on and on, but the list of features that I use on a given day are too many to mention here. Download the trial and give it a whirl!!

If you file a lawsuit and lose the case, you can appeal the decision to the next highest court, which is called the appellate court. Appellate lawyers often specialize in arguing appeals; that is, they specialize in arguing why the decision of the lower court was wrong (or why it was right, for the party that won). Appellate attorneys specialize in appeals because they understand the specific and detailed rules that must be followed. It is possible to lose an appeal on technicalities, even when the law is on your side. If you want to appeal the outcome of the trial court, or if you need to argue against another person's appeal, you should work with an appellate attorney.

Caribbean - Martinique
May through October 2017
But before leaving Martinique, take time to visit the unspoiled beaches, delightful harbours, and seaside villages of this cosmopolitan French island. From the main base in Le Marin you can explore Martinique's lush rainforests and historic plantations, while divers and snorkelers can enjoy the sheltered waters and wrecks off the coast of St Pierre. Along your journey there are secluded coves perfect for swimming and snorkelling, reefs, unspoiled fishing villages, hot springs, lush rainforests, rugged peaks and exotic flowers and fruit everywhere.
May through October 2017
May through October 2017
May through October 2017
Temperatures in Martinique remain around 30°C all year with short tropical rain showers. The Windward Islands provide exciting sailing with the opportunity for some longer passages between the islands (7-10 hours). In the winter months the wind blows from the northeast and in the summer from the southeast, averaging 10-25 knots. Night sailing is not recommended in the Grenadines, due to the presence of numerous coral reefs and shoals, rarely illuminated, and only allowed under certain conditions.
Sea conditions in the lee of the island are relatively calm but the waters between islands are exposed and can have a bit of a swell.
There are scheduled flights from the UK via Paris to Martinque, or fly from the UK to Antigua and
take a LIAT inter-island flight.
The Latesail team are all experienced sailors who can help you find the perfect charter. Get in touch and we are happy to provide a personal service.

Again...a wonderful, comfortable stay at Jill's sweet home. As always, I really enjoyed our conversations...feels like we are old friends. I look forward to my next visit when I drive up to Bend.yolandaOctober 2013
we passed through Mt Shasta on our way to portland. We arrived late and left early in the morning. It definitely deserved way more time! Its a very beautiful area and Jill's house is a perfect home to stay at. She was very accommodating and friendly. We felt right at home. We wish we could have stayed longer.David and CathJanuary 2014
This was my second time staying with Jill. Everything was perfect. Jill was very welcoming and flexible with our schedule and the room was exactly as described. It was great to be back!JanAugust 2014
We spent an awesome stay at Jill's gorgeous home ! We didn't have the chance to meet Jill but she left every instructions it was perfect ! We hope to come again to Shasta one day ! Thank You !!Jyp et ElisaAugust 2014
Jill's home was exactly as described. The upstairs rooms were very secluded and homely. Would definitely stay again on another trip north.PatrickMarch 2017
Jill's home is a perfect cozy retreat in the forest. We loved our stay here. Her communication and directions were excellent, the house is clean and comfy. She had tea and a hot fire waiting for us upon arrival. After a long day of driving it was great to relax and play card games in front of the fire in her living room. We also loved her sweet and friendly dog. Thanks Jill, we hope to stop by again the next time we are passing through!JessicaFebruary 2014
What a great house! Such a shame I could only stay for 1 night. Jill was very welcoming and friendly. The room was really nice and I had the bathroom all for myself. The bed was amazingly comfortable! Jill made a list with restaurant recommendations which was very helpful. Mt Shasta is a beautiful town with fantastic views of the mountain. Would definitely stay here again!AliekeOctober 2014
Although it was brief, we had a lovely stay with Jill in her comfortable and welcoming home. The house was clean, warm and inviting and Jill made us feel right at home. The bed was very big and comfortable too. Lots of space around the house and great views. We also got some great recommendations of what to do locally from Jill. If I am ever in Mount Shasta again I will try and stay here. Thanks again for having us Jill! Mike & Tara xMikeDecember 2013

This suite was absolutely ideal for our getaway to Mount Shasta. The room was beautiful and spacious with an amazing view, and the house is a perfect distance from town and mountain access. Thank you, Tracie!JoshuaApril 2017
My stay was more than I expected! The space was better than any of the local hotels with luxury appointings. It felt like home away from home. Tracie was a very attentive and polite host. Actually, she was one of the best I've ever experienced. No this is not a fake rating. Lol! I was very nervous about my travels and stay and she made it very comforting. Especially travelling all the way from the East coast solo. The subdivision was gated and the location was very scenic. If I ever visit again I will definitely book the same accommodations! She deserves all the kudos I can give due to her warm hospitality!NicholeMarch 2017
This is probably one of the best experiences I have ever had from Air B&B. Tracie's place is close to the town but very private. Beautiful view all the way around. The room is so new and clean; everything is very lovely and done with attention. I feel very fortunate to have found this gem. Tracie is very friendly and open to communication, also very respectful to my privacy. I can't thank her enough for everything. Highly recommended.XuApril 2017

Laurie és una persona súper detallista y atenta. En todo momento estaba pendiente de nuestras necesidades y las superó. En casa había detalles para todo: cepillo de dientes, crema para el cuerpo, jabón, acondicionador, calefactor, toallas para las cascadas, toallas para el yacuzzi, paraguas, linterna, jerséis gruesos...lo nunca visto! Geográficamente está muy bien localizado, en una zona muy tranquila, por la mañana nos visitaban colibrís, ciervos, ardillas y pájaros diversos. Cerca del supermercado y de las tiendas. La limpieza era impoluta, la cama súper cómoda, y el yacuzzi maravilloso después de una buena caminata. En todos los detalles, perfecto. Muy buena la calidad/precio. Recomendamos este alojamiento de todo corazón. Las fotos no hacen honor a la calidad y realidad del alojamiento. Gracias Laurie!ameraiSeptember 2015
Laurie was very attentive right from the start. She was very available to answer questions prior to the rental and extremely helpful with details right up to our arrival. Speaking of details the care and love that is put into this (sanctuary) was apparent by the extreme attention to detail. She greeted us upon our arrival with a lovely welcome and a warm cozy fire. Than quickly left us to enjoy our new home away from home after going over simple details to make our stay pleasant. I call this hideaway a sanctuary as that is the positive energy and sense of peace to be had here. Everything was wonderful from the simple notes to guide you through items around the house to the homemade treats and local sourced coffees. We have stayed at several Air BnB's and though they have all been a fabulous experience in their own right Laurie has set a new standard that all Air BnB destinations should aspire to. We will return to this special place time and time again truly anticipating our next visit.Allen January 2016
My girlfriend and I had a wonderful experience at the Hideaway! Laurie and Randy went above and beyond our expectations to make us feel welcome, including giving us a ride to Dunsmuir for our Valentines dinner. It was the perfect amount of adventure and relaxation since everything is so close by. Wonderful breakfast options and plenty or firewood for the fire. Couldn't have asked for a better weekend!MarkFebruary 2016
My husband and I booked the Hideaway Cottage for our second anniversary. We wanted a relaxing weekend far away from the Bay Area (where we live) so we could enjoy nature and do some adventuring. Laurie and Randy's place was AMAZING! The cottage was clean, nicely decorated, and in a great location. Laurie and Randy were the incredible hosts and really made us feel welcome! There was a bottle of wine, homemade granola and homemade cookies to greet us upon our arrival. They gave us great recommendations regarding hikes, activities, and places to eat. Laurie and Randy went above and beyond and really made our anniversary getaway amazing.AnastasiaJuly 2016
My boyfriend and I had such a great time at the hideaway cottage. We came to celebrate his 30th birthday and Laurie went out of her way to make sure it was special. Laurie was in contact with us well before our stay and was very accommodating. Finding the cottage was easy and Laurie greeted us as soon as we arrived. She explained to us the house rules and how to work the hot tub. We were greeted with a cute sign and delicious home made cookies! The cottage was so cozy with numerous heaters/wood burning stove. The decor was so cute, a mixture between modern and Asian influences as well as pictures of Mount Shasta. There were plenty of supplies to make breakfast including yummy homemade granola and fresh eggs from the chickens in the backyard. Laurie made sure we were comfortable telling us to knock on their door if we needed anything. We had a great time fly fishing the upper Sacramento River and hiking the McCloud waterfalls. Even with all the rain, we still a managed to have a wonderful time!ValerieOctober 2016
Laurie is an excellent host, warm and inviting, happy to share her lovey spot! A real treat- she made me cookies!!! The accommodations are very clean, well thought out with an exceptionally comfortable bed.NicolasAugust 2015
Laurie and Randy / The Hideaway Cottage exceeded our expectations. Anyone reading this should be assured that what is shown in the pictures and written in the listing is accurate. You want to stay here!BradleyAugust 2015
The Hideaway Cottage is even better than it looks in the listing. The private deck is such a cool sanctuary on hot summer days with the umbrellas, the water fountain, and the lovely garden. Inside, the cottage is clean, comfortable, well appointed and felt very spacious. Laurie stocked the fridge with berries, yogurt and beverages. There were even freshly baked cookies waiting our arrival (so delicious, Laurie is an incredible baker!). Laurie met us warmly when we arrived, and we felt like very special guests the entire time. Laurie provided just the right amount of attention - we felt welcome and comfortable, but also had a lot of privacy. I would 100% recommend this cottage and plan to stay here again (as I come back to Mt. Shasta fairly often). Thanks for making our stay so wonderful, Laurie and Randy!EllenJuly 2015

A very nice stay. Close to town. I would absolutely come again.MichaelAugust 2016
Tom's Place is clean, comfy, spacious, has gorgeous views too. Tom is delightfully easy going yet prompt in all communications. He provides the essential amenities for his houseguests, is warm and welcoming, and eager to accommodate special requests. I have stayed at his home several times and I have future bookings already lined up.ZetteNovember 2016
We enjoyed our two night stay with Thomas. Although we didn't have a chance to interact with him much, he was very communicative and accommodating of our late arrival. The room was spacious, with an electric blanket on the bed (my favorite part), and the attached bathroom was clean. He let us park in the garage and provided breakfast, which we appreciated. We would definitely recommend this listing and stay again the next time we go skiing in the area!ArianaMarch 2016
Tom was a great host, friendly and comfortable to be with, knowledgeable about the city, very generous with his home. We stayed several days and were very happy with our experience!FloranceMay 2016
This place is exactly what is listed. It's easy to find and arrive at, and really comfortable as well. I appreciated the garage parking for my car; this is a very safe neighborhood but I did like not having to worry about unpacking any valuables, and the car was easily accessible if I needed to grab anything. Although I didn't see too much of Tom, all of the things we needed were set out in the room or were easy to access. The room and house are very clean and cozy, and I slept very well in the bed. Tom also had cereal and orange juice for us the next morning! If you're looking for a great and quiet place to spend the night (or more!) this place is perfect.SierraDecember 2016
Tom was a great host. Super friendly and went above and beyond to be accomodating to me and my husband. The space was very clean! Perks: + warm (electric blanket on the bed) +plenty of space +fresh made oj in the morning +fluffy towels (!!) +coffee and cereal for breakfast Will definitely be back!SugueyFebruary 2017
Staying at Tom's was like staying at a friend's - except it was immaculately clean! Great location, close to downtown AND Mt. Shasta trails. Bed was firm and comfy. Tom is a great host, attentive, friendly and easy going. Thanks for a great weekend!AndreaJanuary 2017
I had an excellent time. The accomodations were spacious, clean, and uncluttered, felt very comfortable there. Thomas is a wonderful host, extremely generous with his time, helpful and genuinely caring about my trip experience. I would 100% recommend this listingKirstenJune 2016

Everything is exactly well-prepared as Richard listed on the page. Clean, organized, so convenient to go everywhere. We wish we could meet him directly!AsukaSeptember 2016
Richard and Deborah are what airbnb is all about--they are fellow world travelers offering up their space and expertise to visitors seeking their own adventure. If you're looking for a no-frills "local's experience" without having to compromise on location or cleanliness, this is a great place to stay. The location is beyond convenient--you really are within a 10 minute walk from everything in Downtown Mt. Shasta. The beds are comfortable and the view of Mt. Shasta from the kitchen window is absolutely beautiful. Richard was incredibly responsive and accommodating throughout the entire booking experience, and Deborah is wonderful. This couple has a great deal of knowledge about the Shasta area, and offered us many recommendations that we may have been hard-pressed to find on our own. Thanks for your hospitality, Richard & Deborah! We will definitely be back :).JocelynApril 2015
We had a delightful retreat at Richard's Shasta Downtown Charm. There was an amazing view of the mountains, a very clean space and cozy beds. The powerful heater kept us toasty warm! It was close enough to town to walk in and yet just far enough for peaceful privacy. Thanks Richard!AthenaNovember 2015
Had a great visit. The whole house is spacious and cozy. The bed was comfortable. Great view of the mountain in the back. I will definitely stay again if I'm in the area.LillianMay 2016
Richard and Deb were very friendly, welcoming, attentive and helpful. Their place offered great comfort and a homeyness that made our stay feel relaxed and easy. Within walking distance of shops and restaurants in town, the spot also had spectacular views of Mt Shasta out the kitchen and one bedroom window. Richard offered very clear, specific info on local Nordic ski trails and on anything else we needed! It was a perfect place for us to be for our high school daughter's state ski races, and joined by her older sister and brother. thank you!LorenMarch 2016
Great location in downtown MT Shasta! Awesome host, easy check in , check out. Richard has excellent local knowlledge and resources to help make your stay perfect.BillMarch 2017
Richard was very accommodating. We appreciate his attention to details.Lennie RaeAugust 2016
This is my 3rd time to say in Richard's apt. It is cosy and easy to access from downtown and there are everything I need such as kitchen wares and towel. Thank you very much !!MaoriOctober 2015
Mount Shasta
This is by far the best airbnb experience I have had. Joa and Maqua were very kind and accommodating. I felt a peace and comfort I have not felt anywhere else. I wish I could have stayed longer. Maqua suggested that I make a visit up to Mount Shasta for peace of mind and energy. I followed her suggestion and hiked in Panther Meadow. It was a beautiful, peaceful experience. I highly recommend staying in Joa's and Maqua's home. Their guest room bed is the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. Thank you for a wonderful experience!VeraAugust 2015
Clean room in a quaint home. Fresh flowers and drinking water carafe were a nice touch. Bring earplugs, the train woke me up 3 times.JeffJuly 2016
Maqua and Joa are wonderful hosts. We enjoyed a lot of privacy yet shared a few pleasant interactions. We had such a great stay at Mt Shasta, we will definitely come back, and would love to stay in this house again. The place is very cozy, peaceful, and charming.Madina March 2016
I really enjoyed my stay with Maqua and Joa. Their home is warm, welcoming, quiet, and easy to walk to downtown. They are very hospitable and fun to chat with!Tamara March 2016
Thank u, Joa. Ur place is so good. We love it. Big and fancy Kitchen and cozy bedroom. My wife love the arrangement and essential oils in ur house.Tony & Julia April 2016
So comfortable we almost forgot to leave. Just spent one night here. Room/ensuite was super quiet, clean and cosy. Appreciated having a heater. Bed was very very comfortable. Lovely view of mountains from deck. Very helpful host although we didn't get a chance to meet them. We loved the cuddly black cat that visited us for some attention too.MartaMarch 2016
We arrived late driving from the Bay Area and booked this place to rest our heads for the night. This is exactly what it was for us! A clean, simple, and effortless experience to rest our weary heads. (And adorable cat sealed the deal!)AshleyOctober 2016
Nice comfortable room. Joa and maqua were very friendly. A chill place to stay.BrianJune 2015

Beautifull sacred space to just be and enjoy the energy of the mountain plus the sweet homy vibe of the house! Clean, tidy and powerfull :) we really enjoyed our stayMaximoOctober 2016
We thouroughly enjoyed our stay at the ShastaLight Personal Retreat recently. The host was great. Very helpful and close but only saw her when we got there and when we left and was very accommodating. The energy of the place was wonderful. Close to the mountain and the town. Will definitely come back if Karen will have us! Loved the musical instruments and the vibe bowls!DavidJune 2016
Awesome place. Great location. Highly recommend.JoshuaMarch 2017
Karen was very accommodating and gracious. She went out of her way to make sure we had a place to stay on a last minute notice. The condo was very clean and comfortable with a sweet calming spiritual energy about it. We loved it? Thank You Karen and Barbara Kindest Regards, Dennis and MaggieDennisNovember 2016
Karen was so kind and so quick to answer texts, Barbara who greeted me was also very kind and very quick to answer texts and phone calls. Karen's house is very clean and quiet. Expect for the train that goes through Mount Shasta and toot really loudly at night too.YasminaMay 2016
We loved the place! So restful, nurturing, and very well appointed. A blessings of sanctuary in one of our favorite places to visit.SamanthaAugust 2016
Safety was important to me, as I was traveling alone. I felt safe upon seeing the neighborhood. Karen's condo was charming, and had everything available from musical instruments to a peaceful garden. Everything was clearly marked so finding extra blankets, etc. was easy. Karen's home is a perfect Paradise to leave it all behind and relax.lynnJune 2016
It was a great place to stay. We will be back here when we visit Mt. Shasta again.TakakiAugust 2016
Mount Shasta
This house was very spacious and had lots of extra futon beds, blankets, and sheets. The house was clean comfortable. The backyard was even fenced in - super convenient for the dog. Linda was very accessible by email and flexible and easy to communicate with. The location is good and the area is beautiful. The water is very heavy with iron, but Linda provides a filtered pitcher and some bottles of drinking water. It was a lovely house and we had a great stay.EveJanuary 2017
A group of friends with kids decided to go up to Shasta for a Spring Break Skil/Snowboarding Vacation. We found Linda's place to be perfect for our needs. It was close to town and the ski resort. The neighborhood was also a nice place to walk at sunset. The house itself was clean, bright, spacious, and very well set-up and organized for guests. The kids (all 4) LOVED their back bedroom with 4 beds, and spent hours hanging out together watching movies and playing games. The grown-ups enjoyed cooking and drinking wine in the kitchen. The kitchen is well stocked with every possible cooking gadget you could need (crockpot, blenders, grills, waffle makers). There were plenty of dining ware, and having a dishwasher was great! Also, it was great to have a dryer to dry our wet gloves each night.HeatherApril 2017
The house was beautiful, well equipped, and spacious. Linda was a wonderful host.RebeccaFebruary 2017
Amazing property, the pictures don't do it justice. Came for a weekend ski trip to Shasta. Great location, beautiful home, with everything you need plus more.KevinMarch 2017

Wonderful place to stay! Close to the ski park! House was perfect for my family of 6! Linda was an awesome host and got back to my questions quickly! Look forward to next time!!AnnaMarch 2017
We had an excellent experience in this house. Comfy beds, a very clean house, nice amenities, BEAUTIFUL location, enough room for all 7 of us to comfortably sleep and play, and very attentive service are just a few things we loved about this place! I highly recommend it!TiffanyJanuary 2017
Mount Shasta
Place is great, Lauren is super responsive and always available to help. The only minor hiccup was that at night, it can get a little noisy since the house is right next to the Main Street and the rail road tracks. But overall, a great place to stay at and I would definitely recommend it to anyoneLaurentAugust 2016
Lauren's Mount Shasta get away was the perfect thing for us! We found everything we needed in the house. It snowed quite a bit while we were there. Lauren brought over a shovel, and had someone come clear the driveway. We were mostly staying in, enjoying the snow. The second day, Lauren stopped by with a cinnamon bun from the cafe down the street! So cute! And good thing, otherwise we would have missed it! So grateful for Lauren making her home available to us!RachaelDecember 2015
Lauren was perfectly welcoming for our "stay cation". She got back to us about any questions, had the essentials ready : coffee, a chocolate bar, and the best water in the world right out of the tap! House was spotless. Lots of info in house on what to do in town / the surrounding area. She is very knowledgeable about the area, easy to communicate with, and genuinely seems like she wants to help make your time at her place well spent. Thanks Lauren and family! :)MelindaOctober 2015
I booked this for a Christmas present for my parents and they LOVED it. They are already trying to book again for 4th of July. They said was super cute and roomy and that Lauren went out of her way to be very helpful. They also loved that it was walking distance to Mike and Tony's which is a favorite restaurant of theirs.BlytheJanuary 2016
This was my first experience with Airbnb. I wasn't sure what to expect when first looking at houses for this trip, but the description and great photos made Lauren's place an easy choice. And we weren't disappointed! When we walked into the house, it was so inviting. It was bright and airy and a lovely bouquet of flowers in front of my favorite chocolates greeted us! Yum! We were staying for 4 nights, with the plan to climb Mt. Shasta 3 days. The kitchen was well laid-out and we had no problem finding plates cups and utensils. The bed was super comfortable and I slept quite well. The back yard offered a view of the mountain, and it was so nice to be able to sit in the sun and BBQ after a fun morning on the mountain! Then we got to catch a couple of Warriors Basketball games on the Dish TV and I could finish up some work with the WIFI. Very convenient. We walked downtown to get food and have a couple of beers and it was definitely a memorable time. I hope to make it an annual trip! Thanks Lauren!!MonikaMay 2016
Excellent rental in the middle of everything in Mt Shasta. The house was excellent and maintained well. Lauren is a great host and was always available.SathishNovember 2015
I did not have a chance to meet Lauren unfortunately but saw her husband who was very warm and nice. I got a welcoming card and chocolate from her, which was very heart-warming. I and my friends loved this place a lot. Very home-like environment. Wish live here forever. Definitely, we will come back again.DaisakuSeptember 2016
Another excellent stay! I appreciated Lauren's communication and checking in with me to see everything was fine. The house was perfectly clean and comfortable. We hope to stay there again!AndyJuly 2016
Mount Shasta
This was the cutest, most comfortable and inviting cabin in the woods. Everything was just as described and we had the pleasure of meeting "Friendly" the cat, who was sweet and welcoming. Would definitely come back. Convenient location.JulieOctober 2016
Beautiful, hand crafted cabin. Just lovely and amazing. Great location just a few minutes from downtown. Loved it!Suellen & DavidJune 2016
Ben's cabin was as cozy and cute as described. We needed a quick stopover stay on the way up to Oregon, and this was the perfect spot. The size, while tight, was just right for my husband, daughter, dog & I. The bed was comfortable and heaters kept the cabin at a nice warm temp. We only wish we'd had more time to spend here and explore Shasta. We'll be back and would recommend staying here again!JuliaOctober 2016
We loved the little cabin! I spent three days there with my boyfriend and our dog. Ben and his family were very accommodating. Ben wasn't there, but he was easy to get a hold of when we needed him. We met both of his parents who live on the property and were extremely friendly and helpful. It snowed a bit while we were there, but the place stayed nice and toasty. Great little getaway.NatalieDecember 2015
We had a great time in Mount Shasta at the cabin! It was exactly what we were looking for and would love to stay here again if we make it back!CatherineJuly 2016
We had such a lovely time! The little cottage was exactly what we were looking for. It was warm, clean, cozy and I was able to bring my dog. The queen bed was very comfortable, and the land was beautiful. Would definitely love to returnAllieJanuary 2016
Cozy cabin next to owner's house in country. Easy access close to Mt. Shasta. Bear Country decor with custom pine paneling and cabinets. Well supplied with amenities.CamSeptember 2016
Ben has been so good from the time I initiated booking and the time we left his cute cabin. He helped us with lots of information about the place for we hiking, biking. His Cabin was so warm, cute, Clean and its exactly the same as described. One of our Best Stay ever. We will definitely be staying here again during our next visit to Mt. ShastaJaiMarch 2016

Shantam was there to meet us when we arrived and was very welcoming. It was the second time we have stayed at Angel House and we love everything about it - so beautiful! Thank you Shantam!JohnAugust 2016
When home is walking distance to town and has a beautiful setting. Everything we needed was there and we would happily come back again.PrisDecember 2014
We had a wonderful, restorative stay in your beautiful home. Absolutely loved the purple room, and we very much enjoyed eating our breakfast down by the pond in your gorgeous garden. Everything was perfect - we had everything we needed and more. Thank you so much for hosting us in your home! We would stay here again in a heartbeat.RavenJune 2016
The host was fabulous! He maintained contact & allowed us to get settled before stopping by to ensure we were satisfied with the house! The house was very clean & well organized! It seemed slightly smaller downstairs than what we expected, but still accommodated our family with no issues. The kitchen was very well stocked with cookware and some terrific supplies. The upstairs (bedrooms) were amazing! We even utilized the Master bedroom for our Christmas gift exchange because it was so spacious! No major issues with the house, but I would definitely recommend changing the blinds on the sliding door to vertical blinds vs. horizontal. The neighborhood was a huge plus too! Very quiet and yet extremely accessible to both downtown, the library, and a local school. Beautiful home well prepared for a wonderful family get-together or a private getaway! Thanks for the hospitality!BrianJanuary 2016
This is a great place to stay! There was information about the area, as well as a welcoming bar of chocolate! The home was stocked very well with dishes, pots/pans, spices, bedding, towels, you name it. The home was also very clean and nicely furnished. The owner let us know in advance that the local street was being paved and gave us information on where to park, which was vital. Thanks for a lovely weekend.StevenSeptember 2014
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Angel House. The location was perfect for exploring the Mount Shasta area, which is incredibly beautiful. And the house itself was clean, light, comfortable, and well appointed, with great views of the mountain from several rooms. There were five people in our party, and all of us would highly recommend Angel House.DustinJune 2014
Very nice and clean place. The rooms are spacious. Love the house and definitely will come back. Shantam is wonderful to work with.TedAugust 2015
Such a wonderful and calm place to stay. Neighborhood is also very quite and downtown is within 5 mins reach. I would definitely like to stay again!DhruvMay 2016

Samuels place was perfect. We had a great time!!RobertFebruary 2017
Good place to stayAdarshaFebruary 2017
Great stay! Quiet yet walking distance. Todowntown shasta, comfortable, spacious and clean. Has everything you could possibly ever need for a long / short stay. Great view of shasta too.EvaNovember 2016
Perfect stop on our way to Bend, Oregon. The home was roomy, clean, well stocked. Great tv to watch the olympics on! We loved the nice gesture of two chocolate bars on the dining room table.CarolynAugust 2016
Samuels home was SO PERFECT!! It was very clean, comfortable, home-y, quiet and fully stocked with everything you need! The house is close to downtown, so that was very convenient! (Coffee lovers: highly recommend YAKS coffee shop specifically the mocha swirl :) they also have yummy foods) My friends and I went up here to go snowboarding at Mt. Shasta Ski resort which was only about 15 mins away and I can't recommend anything better than this beautiful cottage-like home!!! Even if we were a drive away from the mountain it was still perfect because of the many restaurant options and the convenience store downtown! Everything was PERFECT, Thank you Samuel!!CessMarch 2017
Samuel's place was clean and quiet and close to downtown. Perfect for our family ski weekend. Would stay again.ElizabethApril 2017
Good place to stay! Samuel was good at communication and instructions. House is more for 2 people unless you are planning on sharing the only 2 beds.VassiliyFebruary 2017
Lovely clean well equipped home. We were warm and cozy while it rain ed and snowed outside. Parking area was cleared of snow as well as the walkway to the door. Good communication with Samuel all long the way. Would seek out this location again.ThomasJanuary 2017

We stayed two nights at the cozy suite. The view of Mt. Shasta from the big jacuzzi tub already makes this place extra desirable. Having the kitchen was also a big plus. But Mary and Fred have added their love and magic to the place and that's why I'd stay here again. I feel renewed by all the deep rest I got during my stay. Thanks!PeterOctober 2015
This is a great little place that we will use on our trips between Portland and the Bay Area. Clean and cozy, with a very comfortable bed! Mary and Fred are lovely people. We had a very relaxed stay.JeanneJuly 2014
Nice place, as advertised. Friendly hosts.GregorMay 2015
This little apartment was an absolutely wonderful rest from the PCT for a couple of days. The view of Shasta is incredible, the atmosphere is cozy and relaxing, and Fred and Mary are so kind and welcoming.KatieAugust 2015
Not very communicative or engaging with guests, but overall it was an awesome spot. Great views and surroundings. The place was relaxing, neat, and organized. Had everything we needed to cook a good dinner. Thanks MaryRubyOctober 2015
We had a great stay at Fred and Mary's. I had a chance to have a wonderful conversation with Fred. I would recommend this place to everyone. The views were fantastic.SashaNovember 2016
Our stay with Fred and Mary was very pleasant. Aside from the suite being very very warm upon our arrival due to high temperatures outside, we enjoyed the space and ammenities very much. They were very accommodating when we requested an extra fan and even went so far as to cover the inside skylight to cool off the room. Very nice people and we would definitely go back!staceyJuly 2014
Fred-N-Mary provided a very clean and welcoming spot for us to rest our heads. We arrived late after a day of traveling and were happy to find a cozy place for us waiting with a BEAUTIFUL view of Mt. Shasta. The jacuzzi tub is AMAZING and is a must while you are here for true relaxation!MarkJuly 2016
Mount Shasta
The house was clean and comfy -- with kitchen essentials like spices and pots and pans provided (grocery store one block away). The backyard and bbq patio were amazing as was the full view of Mt Shasta. It was close to downtown -- which is really nice to walk around and meet all types of travelers. Linda was very responsive and flexible in arranging our stay! I would definitely recommend staying there!ReneeMarch 2016
Great little place very close to both cross country and alpine skiing. Excellent independent grocery with a good deli is less than a block away. View of Mt. Shasta from the kitchen window, and view to the West from the lovely front porch area.JenniferJanuary 2017
We enjoyed the house in Mt. Shasta. It was clean and comfortable with a kitchen full of cooking implements. 2 comfy queen beds and a fold out couch with blow up mattress. It is right across the street from a quiet liquor store and 1/4 block from a grocery store. Near shops and easy to get to with lots of street parking.LynnApril 2017
Clean and comfortable. Very convenient location.KaldoraDecember 2016
This AirBnB rental in Mt. Shasta has a solid location being close to the main strip of downtown and has decent amenities. Checking in and checking out is straightforward with clearly placed instructions. The place could stand to be a little cleaner (some bugs and dust), but the biggest complaint was the downstairs neighbors. Like a few of the previous reviews, we were kept up late both nights of our stay. the first was until 3 or 4 in the morning and the second til about 2am by loud yelling and frequent door slamming. Our honest opinion is that although we were close to downtown, we would not rent this unit again.NathalieDecember 2016
We stayed around christmas holidays 2016. When we arrived the cottage was decorated with christmas theme (santa clause door mat, wreath on the door, and so on), which made us feel very welcomed here. The very best thing about this cottage is location. Fantastic view of Mt Shasta from the kitchen / dining area window. Just few steps to Mt shasta supermarket and few other downtown stores was very convenient too. Few things to note is that there's another unit in the lower floor and the laundry unit (washer & dryer) are shared with them (Laundry room is located by their unit in the lower floor.) Another thing is the heating unit is only in the living room so we kept the bedroom door open at night to keep the warm air circulate.KazuoJanuary 2017
Great cottage, great view and location. It felt like home.CarolynOctober 2016
What a cute place! We had all our inquiries responded to quickly and it seemed that there was everything we needed. It was a great location and a lovely back yard that we took advantage of.JonathanAugust 2016

Great room in a great location. Very friendly host, had a lovely breakfast and chat with Craig.MattMay 2016
This was the best experience. I really enjoyed the location, the house, and the hosts. Thank you so much for the warm hospitality and beautiful and comfortable accommodations. The bed was so comfortable!!!KATYApril 2016
Located a few miles from downtown area. The room was fine bed comfortable Pleasant view to rustic outside area with walking paths and seating. Craig and Patricia are welcoming and amiable hosts. I would stay again.PatrickOctober 2016
I had a wonderful stay with Craig and Patricia. Their place is very tranquil, a home away from home and I was made very welcome. Great hosts with great recommendations of places to visit, hikes, etc. Totally love their cats! I was sad to leave, but would leap at a chance to return as soon as possible. Thanks guys you're the best!LucySeptember 2016
I have stayed at about 8 differnt places on Airbnb and this place is by far the most beautiful one. Seldom do adds under promise and over deliver but this was certainly the case here. The forested suroundings and picture windows on all side made the bedroom feel like warm and cozy outdoor space and so beautifully decorated by all of Patricia's art work. Patricia and Craig were great hosts, giving me company when I had time and privacy when I needed it. Over all it was a great expereince and in some ways renewed my faith in how good airbnb could really be.NovaSeptember 2016
Lovely house in the middle of forest. Large glass windows overlooking the tall trees and very nice garden. There was a hiking trail behind the house and lots of meditation spots which I didn't get to use because I arrived late night and had to leave early in the morning. Was happy with the experience. And also thanks Craig for welcoming me. And there was a cute white cat that was shy. Meow.TalinOctober 2016
This was a last-minute one night booking for me and I couldn't have been happier with my experience. Both Craig and Patricia were kind, interesting and hospitable. The room was lovely and exactly as described. Wish I could have stayed longer!ScottAugust 2016
Patricia and Craig were very welcoming and I felt safe there.. traveling alone felt so much better at there home! The house is in a beautiful natural setting and bed was very comfortable. They have great coffee in the morning too❤KimSeptember 2016
Mount Shasta
Rana is an awesome host and her home is lovely! Beautifully decorated, high quality beds and bedding and the home was incredibly well stocked, we didn't need a thing. One thing to note if you have a group of coffee drinkers, her pot makes fancy lattes and espresso but only one cup at a time, so you may want to bring a standard pot if you want to get coffee for the whole gang at once. (We had 7 coffee lovers) Otherwise a wonderful home for a family retreat!ShannonDecember 2016
This is a great value for a group of four-eight people. The residence is situated in a quiet neighborhood, with decks and plenty of space to enjoy as a group. The owners were very responsive to our questions and provided quick responses to our emails.PaulOctober 2016
Great house especially for those traveling with kids. We went with another family, and all 4 of our boys loved the kids suite (so did the parents). The outside area of the house kept the kids busy all afternoon. The guys went golfing (just right down the road), and everyone went skiing (about 20 mins away). Loved every minute of our trip, and truly enjoyed this wonderful, big house. We hope to be back soon!EricaMarch 2017
The house was great and comfortable. It has a large kids room downstairs and a trampoline outside. Kids loved it! Everything in the house are clean and very well organized.SatoshiMarch 2017
An amazing place with a great view of Mount Shasta (from a backyard hill). Great amenities for all ages. Amazing location and very peaceful. Would love to stay here again.StephaneApril 2017
The host, Rana is very responsive, accommodating, helpful and dependedable. From our first communication, she is super. Definitely deserve a Big "like". The listing description is very accurate. The place is very tastefully decorated, very clean, well kept. Look even more beautiful than the pictures. Supplies are well stocked, more than we need. It was snowing during our stay but the home is hitted, warm at all time. It really feel very cozy. Love the open floor plan, windows all sides. What are beautiful snowing scene from any concern of the room. Love it. We feel at home right away. The pool table is a big hit from teens to adult. Everybody is entertained. It is an ideal house for friends and family who want to spend quality time together and enjoy what this house can offer.... a lot. We definitely want to come back to this house again. HIghly recommended.Mei-MuiJanuary 2017
Rana's home is beautiful and my family of 12 enjoyed our stay. The location is within a few miles to stores and restaraunts. We drove up to Mt. Shasta which was only about 25 mins away for a fun day of tubing. The downstairs was perfectly set up for children or teens to hangout with an additional living space and a TV. The Backyard is secluded with a beautiful scenery of the mountains that you can enjoy and hangout on the deck. Would definitely stay here again.ShonnaFebruary 2017
This house is such a gem! Close to town yet at the end of a quiet street where you are immersed in nature. We went with our two year old and 8 year old and the house was kid paradise both indoor and out. Endless opportunities for play. The house is beyond stocked with little things like tea, hot coco and staples incase you forgot anything. The beds are hugely comfortable which is rare in travel! The house is spacious, well decorated and super clean. Rana is a super responsive host if anything comes up at all. Loved exploring the winter trails, back yard sledding was a huge hit and the outdoor play yard was super fun. You can't go wrong with this house!CaraDecember 2016

Cane farmers say Government deal sour
Earlier this year, the the Federal Government introduced measures to reform the industry. But some farmers are describing the $150 million package as a despicable betrayal. There have been rallies against the deal up and down the Queensland coast.
Compere: Tony Jones
Reporter: Suzanne Smith
TONY JONES, PRESENTER: And now to a story about sugar cane and a plan many farmers have found hard to swallow.
Earlier this year, the the Federal Government introduced measures to reform the industry.
But some farmers are describing the $150 million package as a despicable betrayal.
There have been rallies against the deal up and down the Queensland coast.
Lateline's Suzanne Smith went to one of those meetings in north Queensland and filed this report.
MAX MENSIL, SUGAR CANE FARMER: It is a package which will destroy the industry.
It really is a massage that will give the growers really nothing.
WARREN TRUSS, FED AGRICULTURE MINISTER: That's clearly a nonsense.
What we want to do is ensure that there's a strong and viable sugar industry in the future.
BERNIE O'SHEA, SUGAR CANE FARMER: I tell you there's one lesson we've learnt in the whole of this exercise we've been in for the past few months and that's how deeply entrenched in the culture of government is the ideology of economic rationalism.
SUZANNE SMITH: Cane farmer Bernie is addressing a meeting of growers in a steamy hall at Maryborough, central Queensland.
Australia's growers are deciding their fate: accept major change or continue on a path of financial misery.
With sugar now at the low world price of $260 per tonne, growers have seen their industry shrink by $500 million to $1.2 billion a year.
The dissident growers claim it is the big corporate millers and refiners who are swallowing up the profits while paying growers nothing for the raw material, the sugar.
MAX MENSIL: The fat cats in the industry, no wonder they want the further deregulation - the refiners have been buying sugar this year as low as $220 a tonne, it's up a bit now, but what happens in the supermarket that Coles and Woolworths are selling the sugar for $1320 a tonne.
BERNIE O'SHEA: The Government tolerates - and you've witnessed it and I have witnessed it in the last few months - intolerable and despicable behavioural corporate excesses which, by any standards, demand jail sentences.
And as we pointed out to the PM in Cairns, in the last analysis the Government had to decide one thing - does it want a productive economy or an economy based on pure speculation?
SUZANNE SMITH: Growers claim the big players like Bundaberg Sugar and CSR wrote the Government package.
It gives money for so-called innovation such as new farming practices including 24-hour harvesting of farms.
But for growers, it spells an end to their control over how they run their farms.
MAX MENSIL: You'll be stood over by the mills if you don't have that inbuilt protection and we, as growers, have to fight to tend to stop that going away.
Because, if we don't, the bad old days will be back.
SUZANNE SMITH: Back on the farm in Tully, Bryce Henry angrily rejects claims Australian farmers can be more efficient.
He's typical of the dissident growers who want the Government to artificially prop up the price of sugar to $300 a tonne, a major new subsidy.
BRYCE HENRY, SUGAR CANE FARMER: There's one ingredient missing out of that package, and that's the price support.
We just temporarily need that, a bit of breathing space to get us through the next year.
SUZANNE SMITH: This idea has been quashed by the Federal Government.
Two years ago it gave growers $64 million which achieved little change.
BOB KATTER, INDEPENDENT MP: It is not the size of the dog in the fight.
It is the size of the fight in the dog.
SUZANNE SMITH: But the decision, according to maverick MP Bob Katter, will have major political consequences.
BOB KATTER: Now, if they do not do it, then there is no doubt in the world that a terrible price, and political blood will be paid.
Whether it's the new country Party, whether it's Independents or some other group that takes advantage of it, there's no doubt as sure as the sun rises -- when Keating spoke about deregulating this industry, he lost all six sugar seats, and quite rightly so.
SUZANNE SMITH: Minister Truss says he is not surprised that Bob Katter's views reverberate in the farming community.
MINISTER WARREN TRUSS: If you come to a farmer and say, "We're offer you a $200 or $300 an acre subsidy," it's not surprising that farmers say yes please.
Why not a $400 or $500 an acre subsidy?
Now the reality is if you offer people money then they're likely to say, "yes please."
But what I think is disappointing is that the leaders of the group are not are not being honest, with the farmers, they're not talking about what is achievable, what's practical, or what's in their long-term interests.
SUZANNE SMITH: These long-term interests may be unpalatable to some as many of Australia's 6,000 cane farms are expected to disappear.
