Mottsville Lane will be closed 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. today through Thursday so the county can work on the shoulders which could use some trimming.
Genoa, Nev. — I hope to find out more about the vehicle rollover that resulted in the death of a passenger on Highway 208 just east of Jack Wright Pass on Saturday evening.
The county will be closing Mottsville Lane 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. today through Thursday to work on the shoulder. Emergency vehicles and residents will be able to use the roadway during the closure. Use Centerville or Muller lanes to access Foothill to get to Kingsbury Grade.
It’s both Flag Day and the U.S. Army’s 246th birthday today, with the Nevada Guard celebrating 10 a.m. today at the Veterans Memorial on the Capitol grounds. They will have cake and speakers.

I was traveling all day on Sunday and am now in southern Arizona visiting my parents this week. It was 117 degrees out in the desert. I’m getting email and have a couple of stories in the works.
