Good Day "51"

Good day everyone, another rainy one here 

That's always been a puzzle to me as well Ron, they gain nothing but causing other people who they don't even know a load of hassle. There are some sramge people out there. 

It looks like the North isn't going to get it as bad next week. We have snow to look forward to on the hills instead. At least it will make a nice change from dull and miserable. The South is in for a deluge again, I feel so sorry for the people affected by this.

Hope you manage to stay dry John. 

Good morning...Ron..hope your feeling better.

I was up untial 3 am this morning..I couldn' tsleep for fear we'd lose the 150 foot trees sit maybe 20 feet from our house last night...but they held up pretty good...got one branch leaning down to the driveway nearly may have to be taken out, another broke up higher, but it wasan small branch, one neighbor lost two branchs and on the other side of me another lost an small one also. Things ar eon the melt now and dripping and slowly thawing out but the ice is everywhere and about 2 inches thick and glossy slick..I wen tout on the front proch, which we have been keeping cleared of snow and the ice i snoticably thick on top of it..so I just turned around and came back inside. It is now over freezing, first time in three days...we were on the national news last nigth indstead of back east....did you know that the Great Lakes (betweeen the Candadian border and the US.....are 80 per cent frozen over right now?  They said it was in the 1700's since they have had them like that.  Hubby outside right now trying to break away the ice against the curb... so as this melts it can run into the street drain and go down it.  Now he's over their looking at the Rileys tree liimb in the street..it's fairly good sized...he must of made arrangments to haul it  away for her.

Last night on "America Unearthed" Walter Scott was investigating two things in tow different shows that really took my eye.  the first one is that "America's Stonehedge" is in perfect alignment with your British Stonehedge....on the Solictice...the sun's alingment go through both places in the same spot...but he found something kind of different..it leaves England and goes to just an few miles south of Beruit, Lebabon in the middle east. So they showed him an "coin" of the Phoenecia's they had found and on the botton section of th ecoin is an map of the main features of key places that existed back in and an small shape of the United States.. Kind of like an tiny road map across Europe and the ocean to the usa. That fascincated me, they flew to Brtianto show them and let them know about this also. Plus in the American Stonehedge...above the sacrificial slate outside of this cavern...if you go inside it has ascustics that make an voice travel outside so you probably heard an voice of an priest..sounding like it was the word of God perhaps..or "Bal"....this ground was bought privately in the 1950's and the man wanted ot preserve it..., so it couldn' t be demoslished by others. It' scompletely fenced, and is in New hampshire. 

Second show also took my eye...with checking out skelton remains of an man and other artifacts in Florida...which went to the Smithsonian Institute for anlysis...it turned up they were "European" by the DNA....now most people have been taught people coming over the Bering STraight were the first into "America" and indeed it may be the case for the SE Native Americans. But they pointed outlast night...there was an "Ice age" going on with the outtern edge of it along the ocean about where  top part of Britain was at...swung over and stopped around the area of New York...in my first book series, one John REad and intrpreter for th eLane Lapi Indians..was shown an cave and he interpreted what was written there. Read would be some o fmy mother's paternal relatives. I wrote what he said deciphered off drawings...and he says "We came from the North"....so forth....they traced these people back to France by way of the artifacts found there and here..again poosibly going through France or Spain into the middle east. there is an set of mountains dwellers that is being found recent discoveries also.  We are talking some 20,000 years ago possibly. Over here there seems to be instances found of domesticated Masadone and Wholly Mammoths traveling wit them. Fella said at the Smimthsonian that "boats" have been recorded since 50,000 years back in human history. I found that very interesting and will include it in my book series..I would love the map he used to tuck in with the "poem" of what they say.  They became the Delaware Inidans...and they were the one's using the purple shells that I'd talked about earlier fo rwampum..may of bee representing the sea snail "dye" mentioned in the bible. they think perhaps some of them went down the coast to become the people they were doing the DNA on...along with other artifacts they found. I go for now...I can again see out my windows...when the freezing rain started last night it covered them up in an  frozen blurry coating. As I look out now, all I see is the welcomed dripping all over the place of it all thawing out.  I would be surprised to see the kids back in school tomarrow though. My sister's church cancelled services today due to the weather...I hear they had more snow down her way in Oregon City also, besides the freezing rain last night..  Stay safe, stay warm, and stay well...talk later on.. 

Thanks Shirley, but not a lot at present despite some powerful medication.

Interesting post Shirley.

Well, Ron, hope you get to feeling better real soon..it's not easy these days  sometimes on the daily endurance testing of us humans...they should have "something" to tame any kind of pain these days..or so you would think.

date on the Great Lakes should of read 1970's..as for them being completely frozen over.

Well, we all here dripped most the day..the trees would let loose with an shower of small ice cubes off the branches on everything below...in all I have four major branches hanging on by some bark and down the tree need removed. Hubby put out an sign today to NOT park UNDER the tree... or or walk under them until the damage is repaired. He's checking into the house insurance to see if it's possible it would cover it, but we have an $1,000 dedutible policy.  One great big "ouch" there. First someone has to come out and give us an estimate of the cost factor. Everything is still closed, an lot of the resturants in town also...as they once again placed on our cell phones this morning... when you turn them on... an weather alert... if possible not to leave your house. Colleges are close through tomarrow, most all the schools..city Hall is operating though at 10 am...they were closed.  I figure by tomarrow things should start coming back to life again. I'm starting to see more cars out on the road tonight. Bird feeder I set out got ransacked by birds and the squirrel already. Kind of feeling like an case of "Cabin Fever" also.

Got considerable genealogy done..but not much book writing in ways, though been reading some pretty interesting stuff in the records in general...some of it I feel has been "fixed" an bit by the author though. Found out the Thomas Lawson killed by the Indians was Ann Bray..daught of Col. Robert Bray...1622. I hope she died quickly as they found some of the women ran down by the savagesand left to die on the ground..also implaled with stakes up their viginas..... in hopes afterwards.... thier next lifetime, they'd be childless. Need anyone wonder why "god" saw to it they were made servants to the Europeans..with actions like that...but people were for the most part mean and savage back in those days reguardless.....Look what they did to "Jesus"...I hope we van remember that to not stop it..and make life an better atmospherefor all upon the earth...that has life. I guess I should go..long day in ways...but the week sure went fast last week. Coasttocoast is having an interesting show tomarrow night of the "Veil of Veronica"...an lady supposedly near jesus at his curcification...used use her handkerchief to wipe his wounds..and his image has appeared on the cloth ever since. Like the cloth of Turin in some ways...an book author will be discussing what they've found out on it.  AS Mr. Cornwell, says...better then body parts maybe. It was conisdered very Holy to have an finger off one  of the dead saints...supposedly even "dead" there were healings going on. One of the ladies, has never aged...she's just an beautiful now as the day she died couple thousand years ago...OK..couple of hundred's of years ago...I wonder what her beauty secret is....besides possibly divine. Maybe she never ate junky "fast food" back in those days?..what ya suppose..heh?  I go for now...getting late...past my bedtime...it' s past 10 pm now...winks* We all could use an better day tomarrow.

No John, not doing anything too much right now, the pain makes me feel; sick. I will see if I can find it, but what was your opinion anyway?

And another good post from Shirley.
