Driving by "The Cross" on Kessler Springs Road, I noticed that a box has been placed over it. | When I later drove by, Sunday, May 22, 2004, the box had been removed. Meanwhile, on June 8, 2004, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed that the cross likely violated the establishment clause. Attempts to transfer the property to private owners have not rendered the case moot because it may take several years to complete the property transfer.
