It is 5:57 AM on Wednesday December 9th, 2020. I’m sitting in the living room and have my Amish fireplace/heater as well as electric candles turned on. I also have my Christmas ambiance on the T.V. which is showing a small pine tree decorated with lights and ornaments in a small clearing in an alpine…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 12.9.2020

Journal Entry – 11.15.20
It is 6:52 AM on Sunday November 15th, 2020. It finally feels like the fall in Pacifica.

The weather is perfect for Halloween: there is no wind, the temperature is cool but not too cold, the fog level is well below Pedro Point and there isn’t a cloud in the sky. I do miss the autumn colors of Ohio at this time of year,…… Continue reading 2020 in review
Journal Entry – Halloween 2020
It is Friday morning the day before Halloween 2020. I always like to write a post before the holiday season begins as this is my favorite time of year and these final months always seem to fly by. I still try to summon that childhood holiday magic and writing a post helps me focus on…… Continue reading Journal Entry – Halloween 2020
Las Vegas and Death Valley
We took a trip to Las Vegas and Death Valley during Indigenous Day weekend. School has those days off but not work so I took two days of PTO on Friday and Monday. The question was where to go? We can fly for free but it is on standby so it had to be somewhere…… Continue reading Las Vegas and Death Valley
