I am glad I met you... If Trump starts World War lll and we all die this year, I must say THAT, while we're still alive...

[The Secret Trick is Not to Read This But to Write Your Own! - Use Your Mind to Inspect History]

We had some amazing times together... Hiking to the Top of Yosemite, Nevada & Vernal Falls ; the Boat Ride at Niagara Falls; Tripping at Grateful Dead concerts; swimming in Chico Creek, Butte Creek, the Pacific Ocean at Santa Cruz and at the AAU Far Western swim meet at Foothill Junior College; soaking at the hot tub in Big Sur; cross country skiing at Lake Tahoe; Marching In anti-war protest marches at the White House & Eureka & Los Gatos & Laguna Beach; riding the Giant Dipper roller coaster at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk; chanting OM at the Rainbow Gathering, playing the guitar and singing in public; Meeting "Mescalita" and Performing my Peyote Song with her for the entire tribe; Working as a Fire Tender at the Welcome Home Kitchen at the Rainbow Gathering - I was responsible for keeping the fire burning all night long and not smoking/annoying the campers and offering any new arrivals coffee or water or to just sit down and rest; Sailing in a sailboat on the Chesapeake Bay during a storm; Riding a bicycle on Highway 280  at the Grand Opening celebration; playing the Analog Synthesizer in an outer space Jazz improv band for 8 hours on a Saturday night every weekend for years; Playing the piano in the history room at the Cal Neva Lodge Lake Tahoe - the same piano that Marilyn Monroe sat on; Making over 100 YouTube music videos of me singing and playing the guitar; Going to the Exploratorium in San Francisco during the 1960s; Skin diving in Florida; EPCOT; Fireworks on the 4th of July; Whitewater rafting down the Shenandoah River; Going on a hike with the Save the Redwoods League at the "Grand Closing" of the Mill Creek property... It was to become a human free zone; Going to the Smithsonian Institute about 25 times; Joining Alcoholics Anonymous and quitting drinking; Winning money at a Casino in Nevada; Dancing with a Half a Million people at a Beach Boys concert on July 4th at the Washington Monument; Visiting Bumpus Hell bubbling mud pots at Mount Lassen Park; Rode a Bicycle from New Your City to Washington DC with My Wife; Dancing at a disco where the floor lit up with blinking lights; Designed computer equipment for the United States Air Force. The job required I have a Secret Clearance. To this day I can't talk about what we did; Operated a laserium machine at a show; Surfing in Hawaii; Sex, Drugs, Rock and Roll; Driving around the Western United States in a Van with a bed in the back; Living life as a turtle! Bringing my home with me wherever I went; I built an online business and I'm selling original art and slogans printed on t-shirts and hats and buttons; I spend a lot of time at the computer science laboratory at Humboldt State University when I was going to college there... It's quite an experience to be working with 20 other geniuses designing programs and websites... And when I got stuck... I just asked the person sitting next to me for help and they often could do it; Sweating in an American Indian sweat lodge at the Rainbow Gathering; Piloting an open cockpit airplane; Riding a zipline at summer camp;

What a time to be alive! I've actually been to Paradise (California) and played the drums...

Maybe we'll be reincarnated as dairy cows and get to spend a lifetime together in the Eel River Valley... An ideal place to live if you're a cow... Or a hippie... Or a redneck...

I have a couple of regrets... 

Somebody asked me if I wanted to go soak in the hot springs at Tasahara in Big Sur... He said that after midnight you could go for free... And I said no thanks... Big mistake... 

I had the opportunity to chat with Ram Dass... But I couldn't think of anything that I wanted to say... 

Halloween at the office. Deal or No Deal game costume.

I got the covid-19 vaccine and I survived - behave smart!
