Wheels to the Sea





I belong to a group called Mountain Bike Unit, which a volunteer program with the National and CA State Parks along with the Santa Monica Mountain Conservancy. The school buses drove the participants to Danielson Ranch and the Kiwanis Club feed them breakfast and then they wheeled about 4.5 miles to the beach at Sycamore Cove. The high school Key Club helped to wheel the participants tackle the trail including the dry river crossings. The Highway Patrol closed the PCH for everyone to wheel across to lunch at the beach.

Beach Mystery


Eva and I went to the beach to escape the fires a couple of weeks ago. It was really smokey at Zuma so we went to county line.
When we came back from the water a 4 year old kid pointed the paw buried in the sand about 10 feet away from our towels.....it explains the awful smell the wind would blow only near our blankets.
What in the world is this?? What type of animal??

Halloween 2008


Halloween was a lot of fun with my niece and nephew. It was interesting going trick or treating and having very few kiddies in the neighborhood.....

Tolerance


Tolerance should be a two way street not a one way tyranny.

What are you protesting? What do you expect to happen from your protesting? Why are you protesting my right to vote? Why do you complain that too many blacks voted? Why are you complaining that LDS people are generous and donated too much money? You can donate just as much us. Why didn't you open your wallets and donate? (The LDS church only donated $2,078.97 to refund expenses. )

LDS members only make up 2% of the state population but you can blame us for Prop 8 passing. We are powerful!!

I would like to ask every person that is protesting outside my temple how much money the donated to the No on 8 campaign? Why didn't they donate more money? Do they protest the mormons that donated to the No campaign, such as the $50,000 Steve Young's wife donated?

Stop fighting my right to vote and my freedom of religion. If you want to protest, go to Compton, Inglewood and Watts, complain that to many blacks voted!!

BTW I didn't plan on saying anything more about Prop 8 but the reaction is ridiculous.

I saw this photo on a news site and I think it looks awesome!!


P.S. Fight to change domestic partnership laws to be equal to marriage, just don't force my church to perform same-sex marriages.

Anacapa Island





I went hiking on Anacapa Island and it was gorgeous. It is about an hour boat ride each way and we saw a large pod of dolphins on the way back. We also saw the spray from a whale.
