Those whoaren't into the animalscene are likely linked to the tourism industry. With Bryce National Park only 40 miles to the west and Capitol Reef National Park 65 miles to the east, Escalante gets its shareof visitors. If waters sports are more to your liking, Lake Powell is another viable option. But there are other recreational attractions farther removed from the beaten path, but closer to Escalante than Lake Powell Wide Hollow, three miles removed the Escalante city limits, is a popular fishing, camping and boating locale It is flanked by the intriguing Petrified Forest. “There's a trail you can follow where you can see whole trees that are petrified,’ Jackson said Other popular spots nearby include Calf Creek Falls Recreational Area, Smokey Mountain Road Scenic Backway and Burr Trail Scenic Backway. Jackson, who has two children currently attending the local high school, said more than 120 students are currently enrolled. She can't rememberthelast time the high school — grades seven through 12 — had such a high enrollment. Ditto f the elementaryschoolin town, whichalso is bre » century markin studentsthis year. “Our basketball team weui to the state tournament this year,” Jackson said proudly. ‘‘That’s quite an accomplishment for a bunchof kids coming from the farm.” Coming from the farm. There’s something magical in those words. “We're a civically minded group,” Jackson said. ‘We're honest. We have moral character; a good work ethic. Weall know one another, and we'rebasically all here because we value the same things.” Theyalso know how to havea goodtime. “The holidays are always a good time around here,” she said. “On the 24th of July we always have a hometown rodeo. People around here are good with the cattle.” Jackson said she is also looking forward to the fall, when a celebration commemorating the Hole in the Rock expeditionis slated for the weekend of Sept. 20. “We're going to have a Dutch Oven dinner and daneing, a campout andcarnival,” Jacksonsaid. ‘It should be a great time.” Andin Escalante, a beautiful time as well Sea’ Soneareraacenee nwo ‘ttt hana Ortve: Gecor iced 1 salGroat Smenite, and tome nice city views! 426 South 1000 fost +304 Fantastic location!

A roofing contractortold us the roof on part of the houseis very old knownroof problem, and the inspec- tor did not accurately atel y a assess th: ie e or condition. What do you ; Toof’s age suggest? 88 A. Yourexperienceis unfortunate. Like many problemsin realestate, the only solution is to first try to negotiate a settlement with the seller and housing inspector. Neither, however,is likely to willingly pay for the repairs. Thatfailing, you can hire an attorneyto negotiate and, if need be, sue the seller and inspector. Q. I am 25 years old and considering purchasing a townhome. Will this type of home make a goodinvestment when it comes timeto sell, Sayin five years? A. Donot think of your personal residence as an investment. For exa a if you buy a homefor $75,000 andfive years laterit is Worth $150,000, you are no better off. Why? If you sold the home for the appreciated price, all you could do is buy an identical house for the same $150,000 Your standard of - " ; living, or wealth, in real terms in unchanged. wning a homeis usually less expensive than renting equivalent housing. This is true because homeowners are subsidized by being able to deduct mortgage interest and property taxes in figuring their taxable income. Housing prices also can be expected to increase atthe rate of inflation while rental costs increase at nearly the samerate. Plus rental payments do not build equity while home ownership creates a ae equity as the ‘mortgage is paid off. |
