Part 1'You can never cross the ocean unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.' - Christopher ColumbusWhen most people think of living in a tent they assume some sort of remote wilderness area-- not the middle of an urban city. This is where I began my adventure, nestled in a small valley right on the edge of El Cajon, California. My husband's father owned quite a large piece of property adjacent to his home. It was filled with overgrown Eucalyptus and Palm trees making it a suitable place to pitch a tent before our move to Alaska. ...

I was thinking about crows, and how they're so prevalent up here in the winter, and how winter tends to correspond with the sometimes dark umbra cast upon the crow's symbolic history.I haven't written a whole lot about the symbolic meaning of crows, although I talk about their siblings, ravens.

I thought the movie title was, 'What About Charlie?' I was going to have a clever title of, 'So, What About Charlie?' I didn't want the title, 'The Truth About Charlie' as that may be elusive for this fella. Dare I venture and risk judgment as one of the 'stupid' and other derogatory names he used to describe the mere masses he seems to hold in contempt? Yet, he could not stand judgment from anyone. His defensiveness may have been to deflect well-deserved criticism. Well, to quote the old StarKist tuna commercial, 'Sorry, Charlie.'Let's get to the point and put his numbers out there.
