I planned, I researched and I searched the net. Then I went and it was ten times better than I thought it would have. I spent two weeks moving up and down the coastal highway. The sights were to be loved and remembered, the videos to always look at, new details to find with each viewing. I met a man in Jenna who lived in Sacramento who hadn't been to the coast since he was a boy. We were about the same age and I thought of all the places I had been since I began to drive and I thought what could have anchored someone in one spot for so long must have been very absorbing and consuming. The first place on the schedule was St. Helena and that was a hard place to find from Sacramento without any local maps and ended up driving in the wrong direction the first two or three hours and then found the direction and still ended up driving over the mountains on 128 to 29 and that was an experience. The next day I drove over the mountains again, this time to Glen Ellen where Jack London State Park was. That was another headache finding even with detailed driving directions. On the way back I decided to stay on the main highway and found out I should have taken the mountain road back and cut my travel time to a third. After that my next destination was Clearlake. That was the most winding road of the whole trip from Calistoga to Clearlake and probably the biggest elevation change too. I looked at property in Clearlake and all around it. I blew into town late on the first day I was there most of the next and I toured a couple of houses and tracked down several that were in the MLS listings. I was definitely not impressed with the character of the old commence center except for one restaurant that looked like it had something happening.
Thank you Jesus

Thank you, Jesus
Being the third child that wasn't expected or wanted, I would not be alive today if it wasn’t for him and a judgmental creator. Some women seem to think they are the only one who should have an opinion about choice. Maybe the ones who never had a name might have had one if they had a chance to express it. After all they were the one sacrificed for convenience, shame or maybe for their own good. Can death really be good? I hear people say they wish they were dead or had never lived but do they really mean it? Is it just an emotion they are feeling at the moment.?
Then there is the question of whether or not there is a creator and the retribution one would face for these decisions. I have my own doubts of the existence of the creator but can one really be sure? It is a question for each individual to decide and even the scripture says that we have free choice no matter the consequences you may face for it. You not only face punishment in the after life but also here and now because of other people’s belief. Isn’t that what the Islamists are doing? Trying to destroy us because they believe they are doing the creators work? Many people think we should destroy them for their beliefs and they doing the creators work. I think we should be leaving the decisions to him if you believe and not the evolved worms that believe we are in charge. Isn’t that what we are, evolved worms with specialized parts to inhance our ability to survive? A large brain to out think our enemies. An enhanced digestive system to process food better and muscles and bone to catch or escape as may be needed. I don’t have the answers, just an opinion and these are just thoughts that have occurred to me over time.
Every day is a blessing to me and I am thankful that I’m alive even though I didn’t have an easy childhood and growing up wasn’t a picnic. I’m satisfied with how things have ended up. I’ve married, raised a family that wasn’t subjected to the abuse that I suffered and I still have the same wife I started out with so I made a good decision about that. We worked hard for the things we have and now we’re looking forward to retirement in the coming years and the children and grandchildren have already been a joy in our life, so what I say is “Thank You Jesus”!
