Hey this place needs some decorating so I am gonna put up pics of my childhood home. Kay? Kay!

Here is one of me on my bike at about age 5 in front of our cabin. The windows you see on the left were my bedroom windows which I would sneak out of at night to play with the frogs, toads, and various insects that called me from my bed. The spot I am at on the patio is about where I met my first rattlesnake.

Our cabin from the north. The river rock seen here once made different levels of seating for the small amphitheatre used by the Lonely Hearts Club which met in the cabin back in the early 1900s. When we lived there, the terraces were used for plants and by rattlesnakes.

On the left, our garage made of local river rock and to the right of it our shed. The plants seen here were mostly put in by my mom, excepting the California Live Oak.

Our woodstove which we used to heat the cabin as well as cook our food during power outages.

This is what the road in front of our yard looked like:

I spent hours and hours playing on the river rock wall we had (seen toward the left of the picture), climbing those trees, and riding my bike up and down the road.

We rarely got snow, only sitting at 1800 feet, but once in awhile we did.

Aftermath of the fire that destroyed the cabin. The people my godmother sold the house to decided it wasn't important to clean the woodstove pipe and after three years of creosote build up, they awoke to flames all about them and barely made it out with their lives.

Looking north from our yard. The mountain you can see in the V straight ahead is Condor Peak named thus because the California Condor used to fly free there before they were taken into captivity after becoming endangered.

Very nice pictures "T" "I could move there" (quote from "RoadShow")
I've always had itchy feet so to speak too, just not the flowing finances?.

At any rate I really need something to get the fumes out of my brain and get the crudities of my stomach on the move. I do like a good puff of Amsterdam select in the morning with a double cap but none of that sissy Borgia with whipped cream. Anything with a good kick and a push will do for now however.
When evil is allowed to compete with good, evil has an emotional populist appeal that wins out unless good men & women stand as a vanguard against abuse.

There is something nice about how a turbo can clean you out. I like them for that reason also. (Sorry 'bout the graphic info).

2112 for me when you get time sis. :-D
