all over the country there are massive winter storms and bizarre ,for the season, extreme hot weather taking place. Central California is no exception …. 2 days ago we had a record wind storm attack that fell trees and damaged homes ., mine included. Sustained winds of 50 mph common ….Mammoth Ski resort logged a burst of 133 mph at its entrance . That was two days ago … then yesterday a massive wind and rain event that piled up the damage …. and …. the second wave of the massive storm hits here this evening with even more rain and wind than the first.
Anyway the point being that getting out to enjoy some family QOL time is challenging in the face of storms that might last in waves for 10 days or more …even longer to recover…. never mind it being winter, plus opportunities to actually be physically able to get out can be limited due to our disease.
So today I was able to briefly get out, between the storms, to enjoy some spring QOL time for a while …. to break the storm and cancer shut in blues. I took a couple nice calming uplifting pictures to enjoy and share with the brothers.
all of us already have enough to deal with , these storms just adding to the difficulty of getting out and doing something to take our minds off things. QOL time really helps me feel a lot better with everything.

That tea house is some culture …. There is a very nice one in Golden Gate Park… SF …my dearly departed mom took me there once as a a lad ! Love the bonsais ! Domo Arigato! I’m xcited because they just opened a poke Raman house in this tiny country town . We just don’t have the foods you do in Cali! Got my fingers crossed . The powder snow here is a wonder ! ❄️❄️❄️❄️☃️
