Well Ben Wade made it through another show. To those that does not know why I am writing this, it is because on the T.V. show "Survivor-Tocantins" a local man is on it. He is referred to as coach. Last nights show was VERY interesting as it looked as if Sierra was for sure a goner, but instead someone else was voted off. For Coach I am sure this is a HUGE upset to him and I can hardly wait to see the next show. I have yet to have a favorite on whom I think should win. I would love opinions on that from any readers whom may be watching. At first I was really disorientated by the way "Coach" acted and presented himself, and I missed last weeks show which by our local newspaper coverage was dedicated a lot to him, but he seems to be softening up bit and showing a more "human" side for lack of a better word from my end. In our local paper it spoke this week of a man that has written a book about Ben Wade and his adventures kayaking. So those stories so many think he is bullshitting about,the kayaking, amazon etc. are apparently true. With that new found info on my part I have found myself looking at him differently. It sure would be a trip if "Lassen County man becomes a millionaire on Survivor"

I as everybody else has to admit that "Coach" has made it this far and there are only 7 people left! 

Who do you think should be voted off next week? I would love to hear from you!

I never have been a television watcher. Never cared for it much at all. I suspect I might even have a slight case of A.D.D. as I can't simply just sit still for an hour watching T.V. let alone 3 hours or so for a movie. But all that changed last Thursday night when the premiere of this season "Survivor-Tocantins" started. You see we, (Lassen County, Ca.) have one of our own on it this season. I can't say that I know him. His name is Ben Wade and is being called Coach on the show. With that said something pulled me to the show last week. I suspect just a little recognition of our small towns. (He's from Susanville) although it was not mentioned, (the town) but northeastern Ca. was and that was good enough for me. All of Lassen county is talking about it, and it hooked me also. 

So tonight I will be seated in a chair watching television about a man I do not know from a place I love with all my heart.

Go Lassen County, make us proud Ben Wade.

Watery Wednesday. This picture was taken on April 11th of last year at what is known here in my town as the "Mill Pond" A runoff of Robber's Creek in Westwood Ca. Not the affluent Westwood by Los Angeles but a little mountain town in Lassen County in northeastern Ca. with a whopping population of 2 thousand people.

I could not resist. I just had to use water effect on this again. I just LOVE what that site can do to certain pictures!

By the way this is overlooking Dyer Mountain

I would like to thank all of you that may stop by here. I am really enjoying these memes. I enjoy posting them and I really enjoy checking out all of yours.
