MORE OF OUR ADVENTURE

VIRGINIA CITY IS ONE OF THE OLDEST ESTABLISHT CITIES IN NEVADA. IT WAS A MINING BOOMTOWN; IN FACT IT IS ONE OF THE MOST FAMOUS BOOMTOWNS IN THE OLD WEST. IT VIRTUALLY APPEARD OVER NIGHT AS A RESULT OF THE COMSTOCK LOAD SILVER STRIKE OF 1859. DURING ITS PEAK IT HAD A POPULATION OF ALMOST 30,000 RESIDENTS. WHEN THE COMSTOCK LOAD ENDED IN 1898, THE CITIES POPULATION DECLINED SHARPLY.

VIRGINIA CITY CAN BE CONSIDERED THE BIRTH PLACE OF MARK TWAIN. IT WAS THERE THAT SAMUEL CLEMENS THEN A REPORTER FOR A NEWS PAPER FIRST USED HIS FAMOUS PEN NAME IN 1863. HERE ARE MORE PICTURE OF THIS WONDERFUL HISTORIC TOWN.

WHEN I FINALLY GOT AHOLD OF MY DAUGHTER SHE REASSURED ME THAT THEY WERE IN NO DANGER AND THAT EVERYTHING WOULD BE OK. I AM SO RELIEVED. MY DAUGHTER DID TELL ME THAT THEY CAN SEE THE FIRE FROM WHERE THEY LIVE BUT IT IS IN THE CANYON ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE CITY WHERE SHE LIVES AND THE IT WOULD HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE CITY BEFORE IT COULD GET TO HER. MY PRAYERS GOT OUT TO EVERYONE WHO HAS LOST THEIR HOMES THEIR BELONGINGS AND THEIR MEMORIES IT IS TRUELY CATOSTROPHIC.

LESSONS LEARNED BY PARENTS

I GO THIS IN AN EMAIL AND THOUGHT IT WAS CUTE. SO I THOUGHT I WOULD SHARE IT WITH YOU ALL.

1. A KING SIZE WATERBED HOLD ENOUGH WATER TO FILL A 2,000 SQUARE FOOT HOUSE 4 INCHES DEEP.

2. IF YOU HOOK A DOG LEASH OVER A CELLING FAN, THE MOTOR IS NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO ROTATE A 42 POUND BOY WEARING BATMAN UNDERWEAR AND A SUPERMAN CAPE. IT IS STRONG ENOUGH HOWEVER, TO SPREAD PAINT ON ALL 4 WALLS OF A 20 X 20 FOOT ROOM.

3. WHEN USING A CELLING FAN AS A BASEBALL BAT, YOU HAVE TO THROW IT SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE YOU GET A HIT. A CELLING FAN WILL HIT A BASEBALL ALONG WAYS.

4. THE GLASS IN WINDOWS EVEN DOUBLE PANED ONE WILL NOT STOP A BASEBALL HIT BY A CELLING FAN.

5. WHEN YOU HEAR THE TOILET FLUSH AND THE WORDS UH OH , IT IS ALLREADY TO LATE.

6. BRAKE FLUID AND BLEACH MAKES SMOKE. AND LOTS OF IT.

7. PLAY DOH AND MICROWAVE SHOULD NOT BE USED IN THE SAME SENTENCE.

8. THE SPIN CYCLE ON A WASHING MACHINE WILL NOT MAKE EARTH WORMS DIZZY. IT WILL HOWEVER MAKE CATS DIZZY AND A CAT CAN THROW UP TWICE THEIR BODY WEIGHT WHEN DIZZY.

HOPE YOU ENJOY THIS
