We took a trip up to Dunsmuir and combined that with a side adventure to Castle Craigs.
We use to live 25 minutes from Yosemite Valley and so we love the majestic power of Nature's glacier work.
The park is beautiful and worth the trip. The wildlife includes Black-tailed deer, California Quail, Bobcat, Canada Geese, Coyote, Mountain Lion, Spotted Owl, Bald Eagle (we saw one fishing on Lake Shasta), Black Bear, Pronghorn Black Bear and Rattlesnake.
The trees in the park are Sugar Pine, White Fir, Mountain Hemlock, Incense Cedar, Lodgepole Pine, Ponderosa Pine, and Douglas Fir. We enjoyed our trip. You will enjoy the park more when you plan a hike on one of their beuatiful trails.

We were on a day trip recently up to Castle Craigs. We've never been and they always beckon on our trips up to Mount Shasta. We just keep driving by but on Monday we decided to make the trip. Having lived 20 minutes from the Yosemite Valley, we rather love the creative thing glaciers do to the landscape.
On our way back home, we decided to stop by and take photos of Lake Shasta while it is full. Having lived here for years and never once seen it full...well we thought it worth the effort. Coming soon will be more on the Craigs.

Released from Bloomberg today on their site and in the August edition of Bloomberg Markets that Wacovia and Bank of America laundered money for the Mexican Drug Cartel. Here is an except from the post on Bloomberg:
'The smugglers had bought the DC-9 with laundered funds they transferred through two of the biggest banks in the U.S.: Wachovia Corp. and Bank of America Corp., Bloomberg Markets magazine reports in its August 2010 issue'
I would guess that the Banks never really needed that bailout....they seem to have many irons in the fire! I'm just dying to know what WILL BE NEXT!
Should we have a contest on the craziest things you can think of that you would never believe could be real....but are?
Here is an article on the current Gulf of Mexico Crisis and how it points to Capitalism and the deregulation of our markets for over 30 years. We now are in a position where it becomes necessary to make critical changes in the way we live our lives. Please read this article in it's entirety. It is long but a must read. The video brings home the truth on the human component along with Nature's damage. The point is well made that the Earth can no longer be resilient!
Redding CA - Senior Realtor Makes Disparaging Remarks About ActiveRain--I recently heard from a fellow Realtor in my office that a Senior Realtor with many years of experience who has great technical skills and reputed to be knowledgeable about "The Internet" made a comment that was disparaging about ActiveRain at our Tuesday Company meeting.
It was very surprising to me to hear about it. I have great respect for the Realtor and it came as a surprise on his very demonstrable opinion of AR. His physical gestures were described in detail and offensive to this member of the AR membership.
I guess you either "Get it" or you don't! I've written about this phenomenon previously and it still remains a conundrum to me. Having spent the better years of my professional life at Apple Computer working on team development and later in life running my own software development company that was engaged in helping work groups in performance improvement, I find such short sighted vision rather interesting. The best thing any individual can do is to engage in a learning infrastructure that produces a second derivative for learning and improvement. That is in essence what AR is. It IS a learning and improvement infrastructure for business development and performance improvement.
My experience here in the RAIN has been rather astonishing. I've learned so much here about SEO and building that pervasive marketing presence. It results in all my business. I don't do floor time. I don't do direct mail. I don't do print advertising. I answer my phone to people that want to do business with me. I don't sell anything....I just answer my phone. I have good skills and so I close the deal and have new clients.
It's all about the web and organic SEO. The combination of a custom IDX solution, Hyper Localism, and 15 blog sites that market niche markets provides me all my business. Where did I learn how to do this.....AR! THANK YOU ACTIVERAIN.
It remains the way of the few and while we have seen it change from 4% to 6% who blog, we are still leading the way for the real estate industry. I have over 3000 hours of learning here in the RAIN and the RAIN remains the anchor to my business. I have three AR accounts. One for my main real estate business, one for Ranch and Land and one for our software development business.
Google my name and look at the results. Google my listings and look at the results. My marketing brings me ample business for the lifestyle I choose.
If you don't know what you are criticizing....better left unsaid. One has to wonder on the motive of such remarks!
Redding CA - Senior Realtor Makes Disparaging Remarks About ActiveRain--I am Jeanean Gendron and I personally think that ActiveRain SEO rocks and if you'd like to talk to me about it....bring it on. I guarantee that you will loose the debate...why...because I know first hand and you don't. Walk a mile in my shoes before you talk about what you don't know! You can reach me at 530 276-7417. I answer my phone. While attempting to hypothesize why such a Senior Realtor would make such comments....I'm going to remain positive and think it due to lack of knowledge and not of a mean intention. Word of Advice: knowledge is powerful when understood and shared. Lack of knowledge is dangerous and can actually hurt others who may need what you can't see or don't value.

Join with me on this holiday weekend to connect with the Conscious Light of Intention for the Gulf of Mexico Crisis. We are empowered by the simple means of our intentions to connect on a level of consciousness and extend that light with intention to the Gulf of Mexico and the Crisis that is occurring. It becomes ever more important that we mentally meditate and voice our intentions for the Earth to heal itself. We must use what resources we have available to us to help all those in need.
I share with you from the bottom of my heart, a video of intention for all the world. My heart felt wish is that my grand children will be safe and know this incredible world of beauty long after I am gone. God bless us all!
I find myself on this first day of the Fourth of July weekend saddened by news in the Gulf of Mexico. I pray for my country men and women and their families. Their livelihoods are gone with more to come. This will have huge ramifications on a global basis.
How about we have a contest to help save lives in the Southern and Eastern Seaboard states and to get the word out that we are not being told the truth. That just as Katrina was covered up so is this global disaster. Let's have a contest to see how we can bring pressure on the Government to open this up to a global effort to save these people and to work on this huge and cataclysmic environmental rupture. It just may not be fixable and if that is the case then people need to know so that they can prepare and evacuate. Let's have a contest to see how many people we can help in these areas to save their lives and their families.
Important post to read with the visual graphics that begin to help you see the ramifications. This will affect us all on a global level. Let's have a contest on how best to survive. Sorry, but I'm having a problem with people not realizing that we are facing a peril worse than anything we have ever dealt with before. Rather than a contest, I'll be spending a quiet and sober weekend with prayers and meditation on the survival of our species.
SPECIAL REQUEST: Please read this information and DO NOT comment for points. I like am so being REAL here and I want you to engage with this horrible topic and let it sink in. We are facing a horrible crisis that may affect life as we know it. Try hard to GET IT! THINK please about what you can do on a personal basis to help now! REALLY what can you do?
