First post from the Lake: HOW TO BLOG????

October 17, 2006. I'm in here.... I've got an account. I still don't have a profile. I never saw where to make one. For now I'm just gonna experiment and see how to work this. Then I'll write something interesting......:-))
For now, I am 65 years old. Geez, that looks strange to see that in writing. How did I get this old?? I've done a lot of interesting things. I still am. I want to write about some of them.
I live at the lake. Beautiful Clear Lake in Northern California. I've been here for six years now. It doesn't seem possible it's been that long.
We came from the San Joaquin Valley (we being my S/O Mike, and Bear, our Aussie) where I lived in different little valley towns from 1972 til the year 2000. Elk Grove, Galt, Acampo, and a business in Lockeford.
But the Lake's not new to me. I'd been coming up here for vacations since 1950 when I was nine years old, maybe even before, but 1950 is what I've been told. I hardly missed a year for a couple of decades, then it was spottier, but it was always in my heart as my favorite place to be, and hopefully, someday, to live.....
