Ferrari Flipped on Bear Creek Road

If you ever travel on Bear Creek Road, you know the routine…. Some jackass (or ‘running-late’ commuter) will ride your ass to make up that extra 45 seconds. The protocol (which works pretty well) is to pull over, and then they will graciously thank you by flashing their hazards as they pass.

This past weekend, some 23-year old woman driving her boss’ Ferrari flipped it over while “slowly driving down Bear Creek Road.” She said she was not going over the speed limit.. . . . . . to that I say B.S.! Thankfully no one was hurt, but as a resident of Boulder Creek, I can only say “Slow the hell down! Families with children and innocent people travel that road.”

While we don’t advocate any certain religion here at Boulder Creek Insider we do think that, regardless of your faith, the weekly messages displayed on the marquee at The Boulder Creek Community Church are interesting and a real part of the “flavor” that makes Boulder Creek the great town that it is. Beginning today, we will be posting the weekly message.

Movie Rental – Video 9

March 10, 2009 By in Stores and Shops Tags: Leave a comment

We’re lucky to have a great place to get DVDs right here in Boulder Creek. Video 9 has a large and current selection of DVD and Blu-Ray titles and a friendly, knowledgeable staff.

This is a great place to grab the latest title and see what’s new and what is popular (look right above the entranceway for the listing). They have some great “monthly unlimited rental” plans that begin at $20 a month to compete with offerings such as Netflix. Also, this place and the people who work here are “drama free”, which is very much appreciated and can’t be said for a certain competing shop a few miles up the road…..

Hardware – Boulder Creek True Value

Boulder Creek offers two choices for hardware and supplies – True Value and Ace. Both are great stores. Doug and Anne Marie who run True Value are very nice, knowledgeable and they have a great staff. They also tend to have great sidewalk deals on weekends.

Boulder Creek True Value also hosts the annual Lumberjack games in the Spring.

It looks like Boulder Creek will be able to have all of our community parades without having to pay CalTran thousands of bucks for useless maps. The Press Banner reports….
