Hi there family friends and classmates,well lets see where to begin, since 1999 I've become an artist by accident, after My last driving employment for Amtrac bus shuttle for the train station in Martinez to Eureka and back.. and before that drove for Western Charter Tours..to various locations, wine country tours to various wineries Napa, Sonoma, to Paso Robles to Disneyland to Grand Canyon, Yosemite, Reno trips, Cashe Creek Bingo runs..Airport runs..College Kids to basketball games in Sacramento, swim meets..and Giants games in the City at Candle Stick Park..for McNears
Now an artist, and about to set up in the street of Petaluma to Sonoma then on to Santa Rosa, Winsor, Russian River, Cloverdale, its called Apple cart art walks..Had two showings thus far..The Wellness and Advocacy Center, and Louie's Coffee, formerly Starbucks..at the Marlow Center in Santa Rosa..I do sculptures from things I find as I walk about..and do paper collages from magazines donated to the library in Coddingtown, to date have over 5,000 pieces art to show..hopefully I will be geared up for this summer..more later.folks wifi'n Starbucks Petaluma Town, and Brother Frankoamerican#1 is visiting me from Newman,CA. 8 years away in Arizona and recently move to Newman a year ago. and we will be soon going on down to San Jose to see our brother Stanley..soon..if any of my classmates are in the Sonoma county area, I invite you and welcome you to catch me in and around Petaluma Town..Putnam Plaza,Petaluma Pie Co. the Food Bar where Perry's deli was..come and pic your choice of an art collage piece from the thousands in picture albums.

If I won $100 million, I'd give so much to those who are struggling to keep their homes from forclosing, and those without homes, find solutions to provide temporary housing and to give alot of it to helping the under privileged kids from broken homes, and abused families to provide outlets for them to increase their education, and talents in creativity and self worth , then spend the rest on senior citizens that have no family and are in rest homes, to provide entertainment and outlets to maintain interests for them to be interested in.., and to provide local outlets for the teens to exercise their interests in music and art and other creative ways to bring to local events in their home towns locally and county wide..and also pour money into local youth work programs,..to help downtown areas and residents in keeping the areas that need clean ups the most..and donate to the local charities, and hometown events, fairs and ..thats my story if won a hundred million..the rest would be for me to rv around the country with a favorite companion to share it with..wifi'n still..2:37pm.
My best friend would tell you I'm respectful, kind, considerate compassionate trustworthy honest, artistic, very patient, smiles, and will hold the door for you, and give you change if you ask for it, if he has it,generous, helpful, funny, exited about life..warm, charitable inventive, creative,a good listener and will talk your ear off too..pays attention to the elderly and children..so as to be out of harms way.. and a safe driver..reads the road well., but people who don't know me very well would probably describe me as quiet, off the wall with ideas..bi polar..homeless, overstays his welcome at time an advocate for a good cause..talented, good singer, good guitar player.. a great artist, and sculptor of found objects..too talkative, annoying, smelly, bum, loiterer, boring, ehh...crazy old man, in the way..slow..helpful..interesting, fantastic, mr wonderful..good cook..entertaining..friendly..a dreamer..family man.My brother Frank just came by and on his way back to Newman..couldn't wait for me to go down with him,, so I will go and see him before our '60's decade reunion end of July when Stanley becomes 64..Stones- Beast of Burden is playing at Starbucks now..better get out of here..get so into this typing machine, like I have blinders on..thanks folks for getting me back..into writing this..this has been fun..more later..ciao, benidezi aloha..cheers 3;07pm.
