  Mr. COOK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in recognition of the 150th 
anniversary of Inyo County, California, which was established by the 
California State Legislature on March 22, 1866. Inyo County is home to 
many famous landmarks, including Death Valley National Park and Mount 
Whitney, the highest peak in the continental United States.
  On March 22, 2016, the Inyo County Board of Supervisors will be 
hosting a formal ceremony in celebration of this remarkable milestone. 
While I won't be able to attend this special event, I look forward to 
visiting this beautiful part of our country later this year for the 
world famous Mule Days celebration. Again, congratulation to the 
citizens of Inyo County, who will be celebrating the 150th anniversary 
on March 22, 2016.
