Every Place I've Been...
We Went on our Honeymoon to Vancouver, BC. We Rode a Bicycle built for Two in Stanley Park. Then We Had Formal Tea at the Hotel Vancouver.

Then We took a Ride on a Roller Coaster at the Pacific National Exhibition. This One was the Scaiest Roller Coaster I Ever Rode... When they Say: "Keep Your Seats" that's an INSTRUCTION meaning It's Your Job to Hang ON! for Dear Life.

Manning Park: Great Fishing. As a Child, my Family went Camping in Canada and I Caught Many Trout in a Creek... Sadly, My Brother Caught None... Early in the Day His Hook Fell Off of the Line but He Never Noticed... I just Kept on Catching 'em and Stufflng 'em in the Pocket of My Sweatshirt... Maybe a Dozen!

Buchart Park on Vancouver Island. Near the City of Victoria.

My Family took a Ferry Boat from Seattle to Victoria and That Ride was the Very First Memory of My Entire Life. I was Sitting on My Father's Shoulders and The Steam Whistle was VERY LOUD and Scary...

Banff/Lake Louise. Mom and I went to another of those Fancy Hotels and Ventured Out onto a Balcony to Admire the View. The Door Locked behind us and We were Trapped. Eventually We Were Able to Get the Attention of Someone that Opened the Door and Let us Back In... Brief Panic!



My Father and I Took a Hike at Lake Louis and We Saw the Mountain Goats with our Binoculars. For Some Unknown reason Dad was Really Thrilled by This... Could be his Zodiac Sign... The Old Goat... We also were looking for Canadian Bigfoot but did not see Him...

When I was working at System Industries (a High Tech Factory in Santa Clara, CA) some of the other employees went on Helicopter Skiing Vacations at Banff. A Helicopter takes you to the top of a mountain and you ski down thru UNTOUCHED Snow...



Yes, We Were Paid a Lot and Could Do Things Like That... I got Married and Moved to Washington DC. Where I was Instantly Hired because I Had One Year Work Experience in Silicon Valley...

Calgary Stampede: On one of our Family Camping Trips Dad Decided that We Should Drive to Calgary and Rent a Motel Room (as a break from Plain dirt Camping.) - When we Got There we found out that "The Stampede" was Happening and All Motel Rooms were Sold Out...

We had never heard of "The Stampede" and So were Totally Surprised... So We Just went on Down the Road until we found someplace to Stay... and NO, We Did Not Attend the Rodeo...

Quebec: Our Family Toured both Montreal and Quebec. Hotel Le Chateau Frontenac.

The Only thing I Remember is that Dad Made a Big Deal out of Ordering Dinner in the French Language. I hope the Waitress Was Delighted...

Niagra Falls: I drove from My Home in Washington DC to Niagra Falls and Walked across the Rainbow Bridge to Canada. I was able to Walk Behind the Waterfall... and Have a LaBatts Beer... When I walked Back into the USA the Border Guard asked me "What was the purpose of my Journey to Canada?"and I replied: "To Get a Beer... They Only Sell the Good Quality Labatts in Canada." Well, the Border Guard was Not Pleased with that answer... No sense of Humor... and There was a Brief moment when I was wondering IF I was going to Get back into the USA...

Maid of the Mist Boatride at Niagra Falls... I took that Ride... Excellent! We Went Really Close to the Falls and Got Totally Drenched in the Spray... Everyone Gets to Wear a Super Thick Raincoat during the Voyage...

Glacier National Park: We were Camping in a Tent when a Bear Picked up the Coleman (all metal) Ice Chest We Had Left on the Picnic Table... He Kept on Throwing it on the Ground Until it Busted Open. Then He Ate the Bacon and Butter but NOT the Honey... The Park Rangers Chased the Bear off... My Parents were Worried but I was unconcerned... The Rangers Were Unconcerned as well because they Knew The Bear Well. Glacier, BC is Right Across the Border From Glacier, Montana.

That's what I remember about Traveling in Canada... A Totally Fabulous Country that I Ought to Tour More...

On FaceBorg FG Said: 

We don’t practice meditation for the purpose of attempting to fix ourselves, and the practice does not have to do with self-improvement or becoming perfect. Inner freedom is far different and much more relaxing than perfection. Our purpose in practice is not to become a better meditator but rather to know a happiness that lies within. We train the mind to access intrinsic peacefulness and a sustained current of joy. This joy is not the opposite of grief, but a current that runs underneath all of life. The question is how to access and swim in this current.

As we know, there are many scientific studies that point to the beneficial effects of a dedicated meditation practice. The one I like best has to do with what has been termed the “feel-good” gene. Scientists have found that because of a genetic variation in the brain, some people are naturally less anxious, and thus happier, than other people are. Those who have this genetic variation find it easier to let go of past painful experiences. This genetic mutation produces higher levels of anandamide in the brain, which is a neurotransmitter that produces a sense of well-being. The name given by scientists for this gene, anandamide, originates from the Sanskrit word ‘ananda’, which translates as internal bliss, joy, happiness, or delight. It is sometimes known as “the bliss molecule”. Ananda was also the name of the Buddha’s attendant. Other than having to say to visitors, “no, you can’t see the Buddha right now, he is resting,” it was likely to have been quite the blissful job.

About 20 percent of the population is born with this genetic makeup. We either have it or we don’t. I was not born into this life with this gene. Yet, the anxiety I began with has dissolved over a lifetime of meditating. It is clear to me that the practice of meditation has made up for the absence of this genetic predisposition. I have observed this same shift in many practitioners, the easing of anxiety and an increase in well-being. For most of us, if we meditate over time, it does not matter whether we were born with the feel-good gene or not. Knowing this inner sense of well-being is one of the benefits of training our minds.

Isn't it obvious that statements like "radical Leftist lunatics who hate America damaged the reflecting pool but we wll Restore it" are paving the way this November for something along the lines of "liberal domestic terrorists tried to rig the Elections but we will accurately Count the Votes to save America" yada yada? He simply throws words words words at an issue, with no evidence—just a slew of nonsensically-capitalized cliches—and this justifies action, for which the repercussions are always zero. Oh there will be outcries and protests (which he will denounce as antifa or some such), maybe a court decision or two (which he will ignore), but mark my word, he has no intention of letting free elections shift the balance of Congress, no matter what it. Fingers crossed I'm wrong.

EVERY DAY! Exorcism at the White House. Bring some Noise Makers so that Trump Will Know You're There...  Drums, Whistles, 140 Decibel Personal Alarms... Burn Some Sage... CHANT... 

Trump Will Do Evil for the Rest of His Life. Be that One Day, One Year or Ten Years. No One Knows How Long Before That Happy Day!... Right now, He is Doing Harm to America's Veterans. That's a Really Horrible Thing to Do.

Federal Workforce Cuts: The Trump administration's "Department of Government Efficiency" (DOGE) initiative, supported by billionaire Elon Musk, has aimed to significantly reduce the federal workforce. Veterans make up about 30% of federal civilian employees, so these cuts have disproportionately affected them, with some estimates suggesting thousands have been fired. Critics argue these actions betray veterans who chose continued public service.

VA staffing reductions and contract cancellations: News reports from early 2025 detail Trump administration-ordered mass firings and staffing reductions at the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). This included the dismissal of some staff at the Veterans Crisis Line and researchers focused on cancer and burn pit exposure.

Cranberry Sauce:
As a pacifist, do I have to love everyone?
Do I have to love the psychos

who are running the country?
I hope not. Am I allowed my fantasies
so long as I don’t hurt anyone?
Not to worry,
these guys and gals are
immune to pain!
Though I have heard
some of them are sensitive to ridicule.
So when I say I’d like to see them all dead
at their Thanksgiving dinners,
face down in the cranberry sauce . . .
well, I can dream, can’t I?
- Joan Baez

4th of July Tip: Many Veterans Hate Surprise Firecrackers. They Think That The Enemy is Shooting at Them. SO... If You are at a Party With Veterans... Don't Blow Things UP!

and DOGS Don't Like Firecrackers Either...

Remembering Veterans:

Vietnam Veterans - "The Wall That Heals"
a Traveling Wall for People That Can't
Travel to Washington DC

in Loleta, California... at the Bear River Casino...

I heard a flock of Motorcycles Drive by my house on Highway 101, then followed them to the exhibit.

The Bikers were escorting this Traveling Wall That Heals all around the country... 

http://www.vvmf.org/twth

The Wall That Heals: Mobile Exhibit. On Veterans Day 1996, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund (VVMF) unveiled a half-scale replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C., designed to travel to communities throughout the United States.
