Book Report "A.D. Chronicles""



Aurthur's are Bodie & Brock Thoene (pronounced Tay-nee)
This is for books, one and two of the twelve.
One is called "First Light"
Two is called "Second Touch"
Its mostly about this blind beggar named Peniel, who meet Jesus and gain his sight, and what happens to him when He tell people how it happened, and what Simon the Pharisees thinks of the hole thing even when the table are turned.
And sweet, Lily who is a leper, that lives in the valley of Mak'ob, with 612 other lepers, and her mission to take a baby that is born there, and dose not have leperses and find a home for the bady to live.
Great insight into the jewesh laws and tradation.
This is a real tear jerker series. many time my heart would jump up into my throat.
So if don't want to cry, and read at the same time, don't read these books.

Can You See In The Dark?

Out caching late the other night and I found this really hard one.
This is cache that you look for reflector to guide you to the cache.
This one had 16 reflector to find.
Can You See In The Dark?
On the way back from not finding "one more time"
I pick up one of the reflectors, or returning reflectors.
I thought, if I can see these, just maybe I can spot the the in ward reflectors.
So I hunted around a little bit and find one, then I found another one.
All was going will, then I saw two reflectors side by side, I was think this must be the last one.
But then IT started moving around, (it is Halloween season), then there was two pare moving around.
I started moving closer the then I saw it was a three point deer, they continued to follow me, the rest of the time till I got back to the car.
I continued to find the reflectors alone the way, then I came back around were I stared, but I continued to find, till more,A then I came to the last one.
This is a fun cache, this is about the third one of these I have done.
Sorry if I didn't follow the rules.
I have a very bright head lamp I use for hiking.
But I did go back the parking lot and locate the first one, just so I would know were is was.
T= egg
L=pencils sharper.
Thanks for the hunt.

Shooting off a Ship


Some time last year there was captain how was kidnapped from his ship.
The US Navy ended up shooting the kidnappers from a US navy ship.
Which could not have been a very easy shoot.
Read the caption at the bottom of the picture.
So now, you have a ship that's rolling on an ocean, any were from 3 to 6 feet, and now aim at a target, about the size of a quarter a mile away.
That's really good shooting.

Book Report Time "Tenth Stone"


Read lots of books lately, but been pretty lazy, time to stop that.
So, here it goes.
The Tenth Stone by Bodie & Brock Thoene.
This story is about a family of lepers that meet Jesus in the valley Mak'ob and what happen on there trip to the temple to show them self to the priest.
And at the same time, the story of the prodigal son, and how bad his life was, and why He left.
This is all fictional , but the Jewish tradition and as will as some of the historical info seems pretty real, as will as how there lives where lived, is very interesting.
It seem there is a few more books on the same bases, people that meet Jesus, how there life's may have been, by the same authors.
Short book about 250 pages.
I give it 4 stars out of 5.

Clear Lake, Oregon


Sam and Dan dived at Clear Lake, in the McKenzie pass area.
This is the clearest lake in Oregon.
A lot of diving is done here.
This is a row boat lake only, so there is no risk of getting hit by a boat.
We dove on Saturday at the north end, and got down to 55 feet with about 100 feet of vizeable,
Super clear water, really not must to see, but just WOW.
I was told the water temp would be as low at 40* degrees, but lucky for me and Sam it was only about 44* degree.
Another dive the next morning down
to 110 feet
but very poor vizes at the South
end were the we camped.
Sam swim out to the little island to find a
caches that was not there.
We had a great time.
