Infinite Rainbow Clipart by gvan42 - Psychedelic Art - and a Listing of What We are Thankful For!

 

For Thanksgiving:

I'm thankful that I quit Smoking and Drinking... That allows my mind to think clearly and my Writing is better because of that... Strangely, Smoking Tobacco gave me Paranoid Schizophrenia... After I Quit I Realized That I'm too insignificant for BIG BROTHER to Bother with Spying on me... Those White Unmarked Vans parked in front of my House is Really just Government Employees Taking a Lunch Break in a Location that Has a Nice View... They are Looking at Humboldt Bay and the Pacific Ocean... not me... 

Arlo Guthrie Said: The Missing 18 1/2 Minutes of Nixon's Oval Office Tapes is Richard Listening to Alice's Restaurant... and Laughing! He Didn't Want Any Evidence of Him Enjoying the Song...

I'm thankful for being Born on a Great Year! 1954 I Missed Getting Drafted and being forced to go to Vietnam by ONE YEAR! Excellent! My Friends are Still Angry About Their Time There. I got to Spend "The Sixties" Living 50 Miles from San Francisco... We Went there Often to Visit My Father's Friends and Their Sons... We Went to The Exploratorium and The Fillmore West! Protest Marches... Fisherman's Wharf and Swimming at the Beach... Riding the Roller Coaster at Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk after Smoking Marijuana! FUN!

I'm thankful for being born in San Jose in 1954... When I Graduated from High School and Needed to Get a Job... Silicon Valley Was Hiring! I went to West Valley Junior College for one year, learned Electronics Drafting and Was Hired Instantly at System Industries... Kids These Days Don't Have the Career Opportunities We Had...

I'm thankful that I Live in the Internet Age... The FREE Art Programs Give me something to do during my retirement... and I enjoyed writing my autobiography... I had Help from the people in the "Things I Remember Growing UP in Los Gatos" FaceBorg Group! They Helped me remember!

I'm Thankful for Eating Every Day... Since I was Born in the USA, finding food is not a Problem... In Fact, I've heard That for People Living in Foreign Countries, Starvation is a Big Problem...

and Mary Said:

I am grateful for this Thanksgiving. Today’s one I’ve been waiting for. It’s the official beginning of the holiday season. I have no extended plans just peace and quiet. This may sound odd to some. After all when we think of the end of the year festivities often it involves a stream of events linked together in succession which often leaves us overwhelmed and in debt. I’ve chosen to take a different route. My celebration is to be present in the moment with myself and those around me. I don’t need more stuff nor do I wish to fill my body with more than I require. Once these final days of 2022 are done, I will walk into the new one refreshed, whole and well, ready for whatever life brings. Happy Holidays!

I'm Making the Devil's Eggs while the Popeye's Turkey heats up . Home Made Cole Slaw is finished. And starting the Broccoli and Mac and Cheese starting as well. Everything going smoothly.

#HumboldtTogetger — feeling grateful at Arcata Marsh & Wildlife Sanctuary.

How I feel when I play piano.

Not ghostly, but filled with light.

And perhaps, being watched by someone I have yet to meet, or, see.

Greetings From Standing Rock!

I’m so Grateful for so many things! Today, I would like to share this wonderful memory with my mentor and dear friend, Daniel Sheehan! It took place exactly 6 years ago today, on November 24th, 2016 at Standing Rock. BTW, the last time Thanksgiving was on the 24th was in 2016!

Happy “ThanksTaking” Everyone!

Jorma Kaukonen (Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna) met a singer named Janis Joplin at a hootenanny in San Jose, California, in the fall of 1962. During a rehearsal for a show in North Beach in 1964, Jorma started his reel-to-reel tape machine to capture what they were working on. For decades, this recording was the stuff of legend, with inferior, multi-generational transfers making their way through collector’s circles. Now, for the very first time, it is available officially!

The complete album is being released on vinyl exclusively for #RSDBlackFriday tomorrow. To find a store near you, go to RecordStoreDay.com

For I could never LOVE  any (unmet), human more than I LOVE YOU!!!

60+ years of brotherly love… 

I am forever grateful…

Free Coloring Book Art by gvan42

I remember Going to West Valley Junior College in Saratoga, CA and Learning Electronics Drafting. After Studying for One Year I Was Able to Get a Job at System Industries...

I have always loved to Draw and EARNING A LIVING doing something you love to do is BLISS... I Remember occasions when the Sun was Shining in the Window and I was Designing a Printed Circuit Board and AT THAT MOMENT I Attained True Enlightenment (or Something)... What the Buddhists Call Right Livelihood... 

However, "They" invented Computer Assisted Design and The Companies I worked for could hire people for HALF MY RATE OF PAY... and so I switched to SALES... But It Was Fun While It Lasted... 

NOW, as a Retired Person I spend a Lot of Time drawing my FREE COLORING BOOK... Black and White drawing that people May Print out and Color using Felt Pens, Pencils or Crayons... You can find more art at Google Image Search Keywords "gvan42 Free Coloring Book"
