What's In This Blog

I created this blog for my journal. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In this blog I keep many of the things I come across as a member of the church. I also share my experiences on the ACE Train and getting to work, my experiences in Manteca where we have lived for three years, and other things I think are noticeable.

Aksarben Village

Aksarben has some neat stores including a movie theater, Cold Stone, a dog park and a people park, an art museum, and a dance area.

I went to visit the Samuel Bak, Holocaust survivor, museum, but I couldn't get in.  This was in the lobby.

Views of Cleveland.

 Most of the views of Kingman were taken while Sheri was driving.  We visited Lake View Beach in Lorain and then downtown for an escape room, and then by the new Cleveland Temple.

Me on the Chuckwalla in Kingman

 There is a large chuckwalla statue in Kingman.  A chuckwalla is a lizard reaching 12-18 inches with the tail that lives in the desert around Kingman.  This chuckwalla has a metal frame and is made of concrete with bronze and Italian glass.  It is sculpted by Solomon Bassoff and Domenica Mottarella (Faducci).  I have tried to do a sefie but it never worked, but was lucky to have someone take the picture.

Welcome to Omaha/Bellevue Parks; Gene Leahy Mall in Omaha

 Gene Leahy Mall is in the downtown Omaha area, 13th and 11th and between Farnam and Highway 6.  It has several amenities, the most significant being a band stand and grassy area for summer concerts.  It also has a very modern playground.  It is described as a pedestrian mall with lagoon and gardens.  Camberly and I crossed it a couple of times going from where he parked to the Hlland Center for an orchestra concert.
