Visita la hermosa California del norte! No solo tenemos Yosemite, los secuoyas gigantes y las chicas surfistas, sino que tenemos MARIJUANA LEGAL.

Intente viajar en el autobús al aire libre alrededor del valle de Yosemite. ALTO COMO UNA KITE ... ¡Gran diversión! Visite Arcata, en el corazón del triángulo esmeralda, y vaya a un baile o desfile por la Plaza ... Casi todos los fines de semana en el verano hay música en vivo gratis ... porque nos encanta tocar música ... y amamos bailar ... En el fin de semana del Día de los Caídos se celebra la Carrera de Escultura Cinética con bicicletas ART cósmicas que viajan por caminos, arena y en el agua de la bahía de Humboldt. Si no puedes venir aquí en persona, usa este blog para ver fotografías y películas de Fabulous Northern California ... y We Have Surfer Boys TOO!

"Ohio" by Neil Young as written in Butano (half way between Santa Cruz and San Francisco on Highway 1) David Crosby Said: It was in a friend of ours’ house in Butano Canyon up in Northern Central California. Neil and I were sat out on the porch and our friend had just come back from the grocery store, where he’d gone to get breakfast, And he had that Life magazine with the picture of the girl and the other kid in a puddle of blood and the question “Why?” written all over her face. Neil and I both looked at it and realised we were now in a country that was shooting its children. It was a shocker for the both of us. The guitar happened to be on the other side of me and he said “Hand me that”, so I gave it to him. And Neil sat there right in front of me and wrote it. It took him maybe ten minutes to write that song, then I got on the phone to Nash and said “Get a studio, right now! And find Stephen and get him there too. We’re coming to Los Angeles now.” And within 24 hours of Neil writing it, we had it recorded.

FREE ADVICE FOR OLD WHITE MEN: RETIRE! JUST LET IT GO! - tRUMP, McConnell, Graham, Sanders, Biden and Pence should simply find a Different Hobby.

Get a Log Cabin in the Woods and Sit on the Front Porch with your Old Dog Blue and Whittle... Learn to Surf... Learn to Play a Musical Instrument... Tell your Grandchildren all about the Good Old Days When Men were Men and Sheep were Worried... Sit around the Stove at the Country Store, Drinking Moonshine and Complaining about the Weather... Become a Docent at a Train Museum and Blow the Whistle... Build a Website designed to Help the Community... Like Bill Zimmerman Did: MakeBeliefsComix.com

Let the Young People Take Over and Do Not Watch to See If They Sink or Swim... They'll Do Fine... or NOT! It's their World...

Realize that Once You Have Enough Money, There is No Reason to Get More. Time is Extremely Valuable... Do Not Waste It Running a Government or Running a Business... Look at Former President Jimmy Carter... Using his time to Build Houses... Look at Former President George Bush the Son... Using His time to Paint Portraits of Heroes... Look at Former President Bill Clinton... He became a Vegan after his Heart Attack and Wrote a MYSTERY BOOK with Famous Author James C... Bill became a role model for OTHER OLD WHITE MEN like ME! Maybe, I can Change My evil ways BEFORE I have a Heart Attack! Learn from His Errors. Speaking of Instant Karma: Dick Cheney Had Five Heart Attacks and HIS DOCTOR Saved His Life... WOW, that Doctor is Scheduled to Be Reincarnated as a Flea and will have to live Ten Thousand Lifetimes Crawling all over the Sleeping Dogs George Tenet, Colin Powell and Condoleeeeeeezzzzzzaaaaa Rice...

You CANNOT find your True Path if you are consumed by the pursuit of Power and Money... Look at The Buddha, he wandered all over India for Decades Teaching Buddhism... OK, It's unlikely that CZAR Donald the tRUMP, Lindsey Graham or Evil Mitch McConnell will ever Learn anything of Value that they Could Teach BUT... You Never Know What You Can Do Until You Try! At the very least, they could stop doing EVIL... Look at Donald Rumsfeld. We Have Not heard anything about him since he Resigned in Disgrace as Secretary of Defense... He Lives on the Eastern Shore of the Chesapeake Bay and... DOES WHAT? Sailing? Gardening? Taking a Nap? Who Knows... at Least he has stopped the MASS MURDER...

In my own Life... I Like making Black and White FREE COLORING BOOK pages that People can Print and Color with Felt Pens, Crayons or Pencils... That way MY ART will live forever as Pictures Stuck to Refrigerators Worldwide... Kids will have fun and Parents will save Money and EVERYBODY WINS!

Once I was driving my friends to New York City to go see an Art Gallery Exhibit. It was Laser Holographs and at that time they were very new and rare.

We were all in my Dodge Omni (Ken, Ken the son, Mark and I) when the Police pulled over a group of cars that were speeding on #95... We were all going with the flow and traveling at 75-80 MPH... Obviously the correct speed and obviously illegal. I got a ticket and years later I learned that the State of Merryland had RECIPROCITY with the State of New Jersey. When I went to the MVA to pay my registration I was refused service unless I paid the bill and fines in New Jersey. I parked at the Newark Airport and we took a bus to Manhattan. We saw a Laser Lightshow at the Planetarium. The ART Gallery was Very Special (Museum of Holography) because the pictures were printed on clear plastic and had a rainbow colored portrait of a Woman blowing a kiss. as I walked left and right she reversed time and moved her hand to her lips and Blew the Kiss... Magic...

If all you know about New Jersey is the freeway #95 you miss a lot of The Garden State. The western part is farms and woods. I visited some kids who had built a cabin in the woods so they would have a place to smoke weed. It had logs for walls and a parachute for a roof. It was summer so the parachute was missing. The Jersey Shore has a couple of wonderful places... First I must say that Atlantic City SUCKS. I went there and won money and then was worried about walking to the car at night and getting mugged... I made sure to look sad when teenagers were checking us out... If I had a Happy Step, they might have realized I was a winner... We did hear Glenn Campbell Play Guitar and Sing. He played the guitar behind his head... and played the notes perfectly... Showmanship...

The FERRY BOAT From Cape May to Delaware is EPIC. All along the Seashore are quaint communities of wooden buildings... and there are hundreds of places to go wading in the ocean. MANY have a Toll you have to Pay. ODD... All the way from Atlantic City to Ocean City Maryland there are lovely towns... People rent a house for a week and have fun. or just for the weekend... When I was working in Washington DC my co workers would often shout O.C. BOUND! on Friday Afternoon... We went with my cousins from Baltimore (Towsend) and everyone bought watermelon on the drive to Ocean City... There is a Boardwalk with rides, shops and Salt Water Taffy! Sadly, if you leave on Friday there is a MAJOR Traffic Jam at the Bridge over the Chesapeake Bay at Annapolis.

We live in Feudalism 2.0 and Wage Slavery. Employee Owned Businesses or Customer Owned Businesses are a better way.

What we have today is an economic system where the super rich have purchased Senators and Congressmen who pass laws designed to steal from the poor and give to the rich. It's a lot like Feudalism where the Lords owned the land and the peasants worked it as serfs. Nowadays we are wage slaves. There IS an alternative...

WINCO is an example of an employee owned business.

North Coast CO-OP grocery store is an example of a customer owned business. http://www.northcoast.coop/

Coast Central Credit Union is an alternative to Giant Banks like Bank of America. It was "Too big to fail" so the taxpayers paid for their real estate gambling addiction.

Great Book:What Then Must We Do... Gar Alperovitz talked about his book, What Then Must We Do?: Straight Talk About the Next American Revolution, in which he argues that the U.S. economy needs to be more responsive to ordinary citizens. He also talked about the need to build on the “Occupy” movement.

Yes, there is an alternative to capitalism: Mondragon shows the way by Richard Wolff.

Are we to believe, with Margaret Thatcher, that an economic system with endlessly repeated cycles, costly bailouts for financiers and now austerity for most people is the best human beings can do? Capitalism's recurring tendencies toward extreme and deepening inequalities of income, wealth, and political and cultural power require resignation and acceptance – because there is no alternative?
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2012/jun/24/alternative-capitalism-mondragon

The Mondragon Corporation is a corporation and federation of worker cooperatives based in the Basque region of Spain
