Huckleberries hears … that Vanna White, long-time letter turner for Wheel of Fortune, was a guest of honor at Gozzer Ranch’s Pirate Night at Eddy’s/Arrow Point Thursday evening. She was spotted eyeing the Coeur d’Alene chamber’s pirate-boat float by soon-to-be CPD Blue police chief Wayne Longo and hair stylist Patricia Richardson at LaTourrette’s. Patricia had a photo taken with Vanna, according to a well-placed Berry Picker, who said the private affair was an exercise in decadence with bottled water shipped in from Fiji and private-labeled beer available to quench the golden throats of the millionaires and their trophy wives.
