ROCK-N-ROLL DAY; Ocean Beach Peninsula-WA

Atlantis

May 7th: This afternoon I had a scheduled hair appointment around 2 … so, we drove to Cranberry Road first to get Holland's wave-watching in ;-)

Watching choppy waves rolling in, to the backbeat of Boston.

We noticed that the rocking and rolling waves were starting further offshore before curling in and pounding the beach; I've mentioned before how Holland's eyes sparkle when he's watching the waves … and his whole body literally relaxes - if the fabled Atlantis was an actual place, I'm sure Holland would have been born there.

He's a true water baby ;-)

We had only been watching the waves for a matter of minutes, when Joanne called to tell me she had an open spot available to do my hair (an hour earlier) - and I jumped on it: my hair hasn't been tended to since we started living full time on the road; I've cut the bangs back over the months, but overall, my poor hair was long overdue for much needed attention.

Holland turned Betsy around, and off we went to find the 'best little hair house in Klipsan' :-)

Holland likes long hair … and logically, long hair will work best for full-time RVing; the best way to grow my hair out evenly, is to routinely trim the ends and stimulate growth. I had long hair for decades, though Holland has only known me since I had it shagged 5 years ago.

We are in the process of familiarizing ourselves with the lay of the land here on the peninsula, but we did locate Joanne's salon pretty quickly.

The salon was clean.

The price was right.

Joanne was a fun person and entertained me while she went about her business … and I happily watched wispy hair trimmings roll across her salon floor.

I left satisfied with what I paid for.

Climbing into Betsy's cab, I suggested we check out some more waves before we go home since wave watching time on Cranberry Road had been cut short. Holland didn't waste any time rocking Betsy over the graveled sandy country lane to the nearest beach approach ;-)

Ocean Park Approach before parking at Home.

I hope to watch beach kites this year, at Long Beach's Kite Festival.

We spent an enjoyable half hour watching waves, kites, people, sea/sand birds; listening to music, and chit chat between us … before turning Betsy homebound, to roll to a stand still beside Independence.

Holland cooked delicious hamburgers; and I fitted & pieced my crochet design together.

WARNING SIREN~Ocean Park-WA

Long Beach-WA Peninsula

May 6th: The day dawned beautifully following the wet and windy nighttime hours.

We were just lazing around, doing as little as possible while drinking the  mid-morning brunch smoothies Holland whipped up for us … Holland was chuckling at some YouTube videos, and I was watching a pay-for-view Barbra Streisand movie, while finishing up the body work of the project I am designing.

After I finished my delicious smoothie, I went upstairs to lay down for a half hour-45 minutes: I had been up since 4 A.M., coughing, and hadn't want to wake Holland with all the tossing and turning - so, I got up to grab a cup of coffee, and just stayed up. Now breathing easier, I needed a quick power-nap ;-)

Holland's tasty 'Green Smoothie': ginger, garlic, tomato, carrot, spinach, & celery ;-)

Just about ready to wrap this project up …

I was just settling in and getting my body comfortably situated, when piercing weird music tore through the air outside and roughly brought my sleepy thoughts out of the drowsy cobwebs.

What on earth?

Cutting through the tweaked 'good humor wagon' music, came a verbal message. I instantly sat up when an uncomfortable thought ran through my mind - 'Wake your senses all the way up, Val! This weirdness is the Long Beach-WA Tsunami Warning system - weird, but true …' I stumbled to the foot of the bed, and groggily said, "Holland …" And he answered, "I hear it too, and I'm listening".

We listened for a few minutes; we stilled our breathing and waited for some indication of an approaching monstrous wave - the birds were still trilling, the ground was not quivering, and there was no hemispheric roaring … doomsday silence was absent, Independence remained standing on a firm sandy foundation, and there was no atmospheric disturbance happening.

It seemed to us, to be a normal day at the beach.

Curious, we drove down the Ocean Park Approach to see if we could visually see an approaching danger riding on the waves.

Nothing unusual.

The waves were a bit choppy - but nothing out of the ordinary. This is the Pacific Ocean; the waves are always in rebellious mode, here.

The sky was encouraging; seagulls lazed about on the warmed beach sand.

People and dogs trolled the beach; neither seemed unduly concerned about getting their feet wet in the beaching waves.

Holland and I exchanged 'I don't get it' looks, before Holland pulled out his phone to see if he could find out what the warning had been about.

All he could find was a tornado warning: you read that right.

I just shrugged my shoulders. Tornadoes don't come off the water … hurricanes, do; but at this point (with craziness erupting in all corners of the planet) in Life on Earth, nothing would surprise me.

Holland checked his phone for alerts, and got this instead of a tsunami warning …

The ocean looks 'normal'.

We watched the waves for a little bit - it was apparent there was no tsunami approaching … up, or down, the long beach ;-)

When we got back home, I went on line to see what I could find about nearby global disturbances that would have triggered the warning siren we hear earlier.

I also checked to see if I could find anything about an incoming tornado riding the local waves.

Nothing.

But what I did find was more disturbing: if a tsunami ever did strike this region, the State has decided the ocean can claim our lives!

Chinook-WA, Ilwaco-WA, Long Beach-WA, Klipsan-WA, Ocean Park-WA, and Oysterville-WA are all right in line with the beach line. The only high points, that might be considered safe havens, are Fort Columbia & Cape Disappointment … and those hillsides would be choked immediately with traffic jams of fleeing people; these sites would also immediately be filled to capacity as the hillsides can only contain a fraction of the population - they are steep hills with limited parking area, steeply dropping off on all sides to the raging ocean below.

It angers me that the State would not allow people the opportunity to risk waves leaving the peninsula, as opposed to hopelessly facing a monstrous wave wall of an incoming tsunami.

I am pretty sure Holland and I would be rebels, and break through the barriers. If we are going to die a watery death … we get to chose how we go down. We are not going to allow the State to chose our death for us.

On another note: the only warning I came across at all, concerning the waves in our immediate vicinity, was a warning to small ocean vessels about choppy waters.

WTH - the State cannot trap people on a spit surrounded by water!

The only warning was 'high winds' & 'stay off the water'.

So, we got on with out lives in the moment.

Holland cooked the meal he had been planning.

I watched movies and worked on my crochet project.

We banked on Love to securely hold us - Elohim's love; and our love :-)

Holland's pork stir-fry … Holland's 'Pork Stir-fry': seasoned/marinated pork bits, spinach, tomato, celery, garlic chunks - it smells wonderful. Slow cooking makes everything tender :-)

While Holland created a meal - I continued creating my design …

Holland's stir-fry was delish; Colby cheese & scrambled eggs added just before serving; YUMMY!

Just needs a final fitting & to be joined at the shoulders ;-)

HOLLAND'S JUICY LUCY BURGER; Shabbat~Ocean Park-WA

May 4th: The other day we were talking about the predicted high cost of fast foods ($30 for a hamburger at a hamburger joint!!), and Holland told me he makes a tasty 'juicy lucy' … and since I'd never heard of such a thing before, he said he'd make me one ;-)

So, last  night he made them up and put them in the 'fridge … and today, he cooked them …

Holland made these THICK burgers up last night.

This morning, he drove up the street a few paces, after over-sized Burger Buns …

The kitchen smells wonderful.

I got back to working on the item I am designing for Holland; I like making things for the people I love.

Somehow I managed to eat the whole thing ;-)

(((YUM!)))

Holland's Juicy Lucy Burger consisted of 4 hefty angus beef patties (2 patties pinched together, to each serving); centers filled with a mixture of chopped scallions, chopped garlic (not minced, leave chunky), grated Colby cheese, his own seasoning blend … served on over-sized buns spread with mayo, slow-cooked red onions, tomato slices & spinach leaves. SO GOOD!

And since I am only eating 1 main meal a day, I didn't feel even a twinge of guilt while chowing down ;-)

Healthy weight loss goal.

Baby Food Diets are not wise …

Holland can't stand long - his back and knees get painfully inflamed; so, when we finished eating, I did the dishes so he could just relax those angry nerve endings. We are both hoping there will be some relief for his aching knees in the near future … but the damage to his back is something else; and I'm thinking only Yeshua can take care of that problem.

After that delicious Supper, and after the dishes were done (Holland is good about kitchen clean up while cooking, so I didn't have much to do), we were both feeling fat and sassy. And we both relaxed the evening away listening to the steady rainfall outside, while he watched his YouTube stuff - and I watched a few vintage YouTube pay-for-view Movies (I did a Barbra Streisand blitz) - while continuing work on my designing item: I hope to have that finished before this month ends.

Worked steadily while enjoying vintage movies 'til bedtime ;-)

Having fun with my new watch.

HISTORY~Shabbat 2024, Ocean Park-WA

It's important to KNOW actual History.

For decades, American Collages and Universities have taught the LIE that "the Holocaust never happened".

For decades, American Collages and Universities have taught the LIE that there is "a Palestine": the actual Palestine DIED OUT GENERATIONS BEFORE the British military in Israel after WW2, decided arab squatters (who gave ear to adolf hitler's insane murderous ranting) should have a piece of Israel … THAT is what has led to the arab madness (fueled by nazi lunacy THEN and NOW) that has had the last century, and a huge part of this century, it a crazy political grip.

HISTORICAL FACT: Upon achieving power following a political coup blitz, adolf hitler destroyed germany's democratic institutions and transformed germany into a war state intent on conquering Europe for the benefit of the so-called Aryan race.

Today, in America, barak hussain obama announced during his pollical coup more than a decade ago, that he would "transform the landscape of America" - his end goal was to end Christianity in America, and establish a muslim foothold. He promptly announced that American Christians are "domestic terrorists" - and he promptly secured congressional seats, judicial seats, and religious seats for hard-core Jew-hating & American-hating muslims.

What is happening across America with the installment of (1) a muslim Jew & America hater IN the OVAL OFFICE (2) a senile obamanite PUPPET in the White House to further the muslim AGENDA; rioting mobs inciting racism and burning city blocks to the ground; a mindless & lawless distortion of TRUTH & Law and Order FROM CONGRESS, as well as the Oval Office: is a nazi ploy straight out of adolf hitler's handbook, of using politics & court rooms to carry out dictator demands (obama, clinton, pelosi, schumer, schiff, jeffries, cheney, beutler, biden, ellison, carson, omar, tlaib - ALL openly hateful toward Israel & America).

Following the collapse of nazi rule with the victory of D-Day, American politicians REFUSED to allow a ship of war-weary JEWS into American ports … BUT nazi doctors (some who had worked in barbaric concentration camps) were WELCOMED with open arms.

So, now, in America we have mentally-ill {doctors} using a twisted scientific view to further the agenda their forefathers were employing in the concentration camps - to the point behind demonrat's crying loudly for the {right} not only to abort babies at ANY STAGE of life … but also to allow full term babies to starve to death following birth (under the 'watchful eyes' of doctors and nurses, of course); and to unwanted "abort 3 year olds". This evil happened in nazi concentration camps - it has NO PLACE in American {hospitals}. And if that doesn't satisfy the warped scientific 'minds want to know' lunacy, school children are being brainwashed to accept twisted scientific doctrine, even to the point of physical mutilation (brainwashing can be undone - reversal of making a eunuch out of a male child cannot; the removal of a young girl's breasts cannot) 🤬

American {churches} are also parroting political lunacy from the pulpits (same as in nazi germany), and a large part of society is engaging in- and celebrating debauched perversion (same as in nazi germany).

History that has been dismissed repeats itself until Truth sets it right. And if society refuses to straighten up and fly right … civilizations that have fallen prey to wickedness and embrace evil, die out.

American politicians are in the grip of barack hussain obama's muslim hate-fueled ANTI-American tirades & crazy-train-TDS; and Cities, & College campuses, are erupting with full-on hatred & discrimination that is as old as the the rift between ishmael and Isaac: where this arab hatred towards Jews actually began.

And in all this hot mess, most Americans remain silent (same as german citizens in nazi germany).

Fence straddling has got to come to an end.

Americans have to decided which side of the fence they will firmly stand on.

And wishy-washy christians need to get back to Christian TRUTHS-man up-stand up-and lift their voices.
