Ok so the summary of the enty I lost is

I left portland and headed down the oregon coast

stoping at cannon beach to spend time looking for a present hidden in the cannon left there 2 months earlier by my friend Kurt. After 8 minutes of scraping through every thing that every tourist decided to leave in the cannon and almost giving up twice I found a small rubber chicken which I concluded to be the surprise. Stuck him on the dash and headded to manzanita....

where I found a help wanted sign at the mini mart and started investigating the possibility of places and work in Manzanita...didn't look like I could make a go of it so I parked in public parking and hiked the beach the next morning and returned to my car to find a police man writing me a ticket "for parking against the flow of traffic" puppy dog eyes and a little can I move it please saved me 47 bucks which would have crippled the gas fund. (There were no cars for 20 spaces on either side of the road and it's the off season Is my plea for justice). Stopped at the game store and bought a 50 cent souvenir and discovered that the owner talked with "fircreek accent"...how ironic.

From there I had the stangest haircut experience ever in Newport and some good cheese curds in Tillamock befrome butsing a left for I=5 to save gas. (I hind sight I should have gone to the redwood forest as originally planned. Stayed the night @ a Wal Mart and then made for Redding CA the next morning.

An interesting day in redding lead to two discoveries. One there is a great ministry to the needy there and two I could not afford to start a life there and finding a job was going to be tricky. So I called Kurt who had told me to come back and live with him for a couple months and he said come on up.

Slept at wall mart and then spent 12 hours on I-5 the day before †˙ånksgiving on one of the coolest drives I've ever been on, loved it (except for the part where the car in front of me got in an accident)

Spent Thanksgiving weekend with my family and then got to Bellingham at the beggining of a huge snow storm.

Spent a week applying for jobs

Spent a week getting interviews.

Spent a weekend accepting jobs and then backing out of them cause they weren't going to work out and currently it looks like Haggens Bulk Food Dept will be my job for a while. Should be good and gratifying work for my emotiionally spent self right now.

Hope all is well else where and that you get to worship God this Christmas and enjoy it.

I'm working on making a game too if anyone has time to try it out, let me know.
