twitterLetter: Image of Mesquite is turning into a bunch of bull
Friday, July 30, 1999 | 10:45 a.m.
Wasn't it enough that you were a warm, wonderful little community in a green beautiful valley?
You were steeped in a tradition of kindness and an enviable lifestyle of values, honesty and goodwill.
I used to visit my family there many years ago and felt the small-town goodness. Then as you grew, we visited and enjoyed the upscale momentum and growth.
Now who OK'd the insanity of a bull run? It is a shame, Mesquite, that you've stooped to this to attract money.
Please reconsider what you want your lovely valley to be known for.
