offical about what you can do to protect yourself. .it's a disease most commonly passed on through mosquito bites..and health officials say.. the west nile virus is more active than past years... this year.. a total of ten groups of mosquitos, eight dead birds and 13 chickens tested positive for the virus. and many of those cases were found within the past week. nola woods/contra costa mosquito and vector control districtwhat we are urging contra costa county residents to do is to make sure that if they are going to be out when mosquitos that can transmit west nile virus are typically most active during dawn and dusk, that they make sure they are wearing their repellent at that time. and if they know they're going to be out in an area where there are going to be many mosquitos, we are asking them to avoid that area to prevent mosquito bites the numbers show a significant uptick from last year.. when officials found the virus in just three groups of mosquitos five dead birds and four chickens.the mosquitos that
7:13 am
tested positive this year.. span nine cities in contra costa county including oakley, anticoh and concord. nola woods/contra costa mosquito and vector control district west nile virus is a virus that replicates in warmer weather. so when we have extended periods of warm weather, we do tend to see more west nile virus activity health experts say.. the symptoms take 3-14 days to show up.and they vary.. from little to none.. to serious.. and at times, fatal. nola woods/contra costa mosquito and vector control districtso if it becomes what we call a neuro-invasive case of west nile virus. it can involve inflammation of the brain. there are lots of serious things that can happen and that's why we want folks to be very aware to prevent mosquito bites because there are such varying symptoms that can be associated with it. and what the insects need to survive and thrive is standing water.. so health experts say.. if you have some around you, get rid of it if you can. nola
7:14 am
woods/contra costa mosquito and vector control districtso most mosquitos need that standing water where they can lay their eggs. we tell folks to dump or drain standing water to prevent mosquitos. because if you can stop them from having a place to lay their eggs, you can prevent the adult mosquitos that can bite.

he had abducted my mother and that he was going to kill her if i didn't do exactly as he told me. i quickly told him, 'i'll do whatever you want me to do.'"lauren kennedy says the supposed kidnappers called from her mother's phone number. lauren kennedy/victim: "it was everybody's worst nightmare."a nightmare that became all too real when she heard her mother's voice on the other line.lauren kennedy:"i heard her in the background and i thought for sure that they had taken her."the man commanded lauren to put money into reloadable debit cards, demanded the card numbers over the phone, and ordered lauren to destroy the cards afterwards.lauren kennedy/victim: "he, at that time, hung up and never called me back. so, within a minute

( marty )it's been a few weeks since highway 1 near big sur reopened. now that traffic is flowing smoothly again, it's a good time to start thinking about a road trip. travel enthusiast dana rebmann joins us now. folks come from all around the world to see this iconic stretch of coast. now that the detour is gone, it's a good inspiration to revisit this great stretch of our backyard. there are spots where you always have to stop, no matter

how many times you've seen them. a perfect example is the bixby creek bridge. as you approach the bridge from the north, there's a nice pullout area that makes it easy to get off the road and out of your car to take a picture. there's also a great view looking back from the south of the bridge. another spot that you can never seem to drive by - mcway falls at julia pfeiffer burns state park. less than a half-mile round trip, it's such a quick and easy walk with a huge payoff. from the parking lot, the trail passes under the highway and then takes you to the overlook. part of the trail is currently closed due to erosion, but the

closure doesn't impact the view. there's no beach access, so it's all about taking it in from above. if you're a fan of chasing waterfalls, be sure to visit limekiln state park. surrounded by redwoods, you have to do some stream crossings along the way, with some strategic stepping on rocks and over tree branches. your feet will get wet, but most folks forget all about it once they lay eyes on the falls. it's about a mile- and-a-half, out and back trail. an extra perk, after your hike to the waterfall, it's less than a 5-minute walk to a scenic beach that sits below highway 1. there also a number of campsites at limekiln state park.

if you can make it work schedule-wise when you're in big sur, i'd also recommend saving time for the point sur lightstation. it takes some planning because the california state historic park is only open to the public via guided tours; during the summer they take place on saturday, sunday, and wednesday. the walking tours are run by docents and last about three hours, but along with the knockout scenery there's all sorts of great history ranging from famous shipwrecks, to the nearby
