and Whale Watching in the Ocean Near San Francisco... and Visit The Santa Cruz Boardwalk Main Beach, Glacier Point Yosemite, Ananda Village, The Top of Squaw Valley, The Spring at Panther Meadows Mount Shasta... 

Swimming in the Damn Cold Ocean... The Rides at the Santa Cruz Boardwalk Make That Beach Special.

Panther Meadows Mount Shasta CA



and Here is My Bucket List from 2020... 

The Integratron,  Chaco Canyon Hopi City, Chichen Itza Yucatan Pyramid and Red Rocks Ampitheater

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integratron
The Integratron is a 38 feet (12 m) tall cupola structure with a diameter of 55 feet (17 m) designed by ufologist and contactee George Van Tassel. He claimed the Integratron was capable of rejuvenation, anti-gravity and time travel. Located Near BIG ROCK. 


The Integratron Immortality and Time Travel Device


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaco_Culture_National_Historical_Park 

A Religious Ceremony Site... and Four Corners, Dulce... There Are MANY UFO Spiritual Native American Places In that Part of the World... 

Chaco Culture National Historical Park is a United States National Historical Park in the American Southwest hosting a concentration of pueblos. The park is located in northwestern New Mexico, between Albuquerque and Farmington, in a remote canyon cut by the Chaco Wash. Containing the most sweeping collection of ancient ruins north of Mexico, the park preserves one of the most important pre-Columbian cultural and historical areas in the United States.[2]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chichen_Itza

Chichen Itza[nb 1] was a large pre-Columbian city built by the Maya people of the Terminal Classic period. The archaeological site is located in Tinúm MunicipalityYucatán StateMexico.[1] 
It's was the Location of the "End of time" Celebration in 2012

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Rocks_Amphitheatre

Red Rocks Amphitheatre is an open-air amphitheatre built into a rock structure in the western United States, near MorrisonColorado, ten miles (16 km) west of Denver. There is a large, tilted, disc-shaped rock behind the stage, a huge vertical rock angled outwards from stage right, several large outcrops angled outwards from stage left and a seating area for up to 9,525.[1]

HINT! Save $145 by NOT Buying a Ticket to Dead & Co at the Sphere in Las Vegas. I Bet you Would be Able to Hear the Music and See the Lightshow from Outside... and Then you Would be able to Spend that Money on "SOMETHING ELSE!"  I Remember Going to The Further Festival at the Shoreline in Mountain View and enjoying the show from a Grassy Knoll with the poor boys overlooking the Parking Lot... It was a Very Long Concert and about Halfway thru I Walked over to a Chinese Restaurant... and when I got back they were still playing Music... including a Sample of a Train Whistle that totally fooled me... I asked the man sitting next to me: "Where is the Train Around Here?" and he responded: "It's a Synthesizer Onstage..."

I also Remember the Reno Hilton Steve Miller/George Thorogood Concert... outdoors... and we could hear it Great from the Parking Lot... at the end of the concert they played a 12 bar blues song... and both men traded lead guitar riffs... THAT was EPIC.

The REAL Reason I won't be going to the Concert is... I'm too old... Walking a city block is exhausting and I have to sit down... a major adventure is beyond me... The Price is not too high when I consider that Hotel Rooms are VERY Cheap!

What's bad about being Old is: The Rainbow Gathering will be in California this summer and the Idea of a Long Hike and sleeping outdoors is no longer something I want to do...

Grateful Dead fan art by gvan42


and then Joe Blow Said on FaceBorg...

First and foremost I am proud to be an American and that the grateful dead originated in the United States of America. I have a college degree in psychology and sociology.in doing so over the years I have learned much about myself as well as the people that surround me. I am tired of making comments of the ken ,Barbies and biffs who choose to attend the sphere shows ...though I may post a humorous pics or two. In reality America is the melting pot of the world. The introduction of the Internet and social media has changed everyones life. As is known change is a constant in this world and we all have to adapt at at one time or another. Yes, I am of the elder generation now but I was young once as were you. I chose to be with the best and wisest people I could meet at dead shows and learned to appreciate the music that feeds us all. As a whole looking at the big picture alot of people still want to experience a dead show because it is a special thing. I respect that. I was blessed to see the band many times front row. I wouldn't trade those memories for anything. I am thankful to feel part of the family. Things have changed. God bless the original members of the band for keeping the fire going. All I ask is that for those newbies to respect the elders who are there truly for the music. It's like a religion. It's not all about the drugs. All comments welcome.

Religion is an existential threat to humanity... because it has been weaponized by those who believe in it. Simply, supporting and believing in it does us no justice in the bigger picture of stewardship of our planet. In fact it holds us back.
Look, the only way out of this is to make it cease to exist. And learn from it. Realize as a populace that it is a form of indoctrination (and therefore brainwashing).
Actually, to me it seems as if religion is already imploding, perhaps with the spread of the abundance of information being passed via the internet. For sure, information is power.
Sometimes I wonder if we will see the discovery of intelligent alien life during our lifetimes. Like out in the open info where no one can deny their existence. Certainly that would be the final nail in the coffin of organized religions, would it not?
'Certainly' may be a reach. Admittedly.
In my mind, the Conservative Movement remains the foremost threat to our democracy and likely our entire future. The climate isn't waiting for us to take ourselves out... it is actively changing before our eyes and we are doing little to change ourselves. It makes us wonder why they would call them Conservatives. They ain't conserving anything other than their dying ideology stemming from systemic racism and religious bigotry. And what we need instead is to move forward and learn how to adapt to what is coming.
There's some certainty in if they win the day though. Because certainly we will never make it if the conservative movement moves takes full control of our government which moves us backwards. We will eventually cease to exist due to our own accord. No, the only way to get through this is to bring truth to the table and vote out those who would have us thrown in prison (just because we vote differently). Vote those out who hide behind the bully (pulpits)... for they are the weak ones.
The most important election of our lifetimes is right around the corner. Definitely resembles good vs. evil in my book (i'm an ex-catholic, recovering).
Bu if we elect rational human beings capable of empathy and critical thinking... who is critical of faith-based philosophies (the cause of so many wars and hardships) - but which can work with the other side a bit - then we stand a chance to see our way through this dark era of the MAGA movement in our country. And perhaps then the world... would follow and revert to more liberal policies which provide safety nets and more thoughtfulness to the climate. And we could tax the churches and use that money to help the local communities and provide shelters to the homeless, with prospects as incentives.
But the ...as evidenced by... examples continue to pop up all around us - on the dailey. And what it really comes down to is we simply need to do more to stop and even reverse the damages we've done to our planet and the species on it.
Enter Science. Because we don't figure shit out by praying.



The sensory input devices on the front and sides of your head are scooping up data from the roil of energy all around you and streaming it to your onboard biocomputer, which uses these vibrations to construct a concept of what the world must be like beyond the confines of its bony encasement.

Taylor Swift explained why she's 'proudly' voting for Joe Biden for president... 


  • "The change we need most is to elect a president who recognizes that people of color deserve to feel safe and represented, that women deserve the right to choose what happens to their bodies, and that the LGBTQIA+ community deserves to be acknowledged and included," she said.

The GOP must love losing…
In 2016 the Republicans controlled the House of Representatives, the Senate and the White House… in only four years the GOP LOST the House, LOST the Senate and LOST the presidency. Tяump’s “leadership” resulted in the most rapid decline of a political party in over 80 years, since the failed Hoover Administration.
The leading candidate for the GOP in 2024 ex-president Spraytantrum is a criminal defendant for 91 felony charges in 4 separate jurisdictions and has been found liable for sexual assault.
The GOP’s “whistleblower” that James Comer and Gym Jordan said was “credible” has been discovered to be a foreign agent… a spy for China.
The dud Durham investigation was the biggest nothingburger of all time… nobody was “LOCKED UP.”
The testimony of the GOP’s “star witnesses” in the idiotic impeachment inquiry hearing did not show any wrongdoing by President Biden.
Qevin McQarthy’s is a Qoward… his failure to stand up to Tяump extremists directly led to his ousting. Qevin McQarthy went down faster than Lurid Boobert in a theater.
Tяump’s former advisors are now speaking out about Prima Donnie’s incompetence and lack of ethics… most of the witnesses in the indictments of Tяump are Republicans, many of whom worked for Tяump.
All of this must be tough for Tяump’s cult to comprehend after years of making fools of themselves screaming “LOCK ‘EM UP.” Tяump’s gullible groupies need to rethink who actually is “crooked,” but they are far too dim and far too detached from reality.
I’ve heard a lot of criticism by Republicans of the Biden Administration but I have not heard any policy proposals from GOP representatives to address any of the issues facing our nation. Complaining about a problem without proposing a solution is called “whining.” The “do-nothing” GOP led House of Representatives is the LEAST PRODUCTIVE Congress in over 80 years, since The Great Depression.
The recent 2023 midterm elections showed that voters are tired of Tяump endorsed election denying right-wing extremists and anti-abortion radicals… the GOP got clobbered in Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Kentucky. Democrats will take this positive Joementum into 2024!
In 2024, I will proudly vote for the candidate who is kind and civil, the candidate who keeps his promises and who acts like an adult.
The Re̶̶p̶̶u̶̶b̶̶l̶̶i̶̶c̶̶a̶̶n̶̶s̶̶ Тяumpbuttlickans who are focused on Hunter Biden and are still supporting Tяumpty Dumbty are making fools of themselves. The scatterbrained GOP’s focus on petty partisan bickering and dirty tricks will guarantee 2024 victories for Democrats in swing districts and in swing states.
Thank goodness Joe Biden is the POTUS and thank God the American people FIRED the IMPOTUS (IMpeached President Of The United States) D’ohnald Tяumpertantrum!
If Tяump is the nominee for the GOP then Joe Biden will beat the Manchurian Cantaloupe again.
