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.

Ace Rail 56: Earthquakes Arena

These are my most recent pictures of the stadium going up close to Santa Clara Station; but accessible by car from Coleman Avenue.  The inaugural match is scheduled for March 22, a month away.  It is going to be called Avaya Stadium, as they provided some corporate sponsorship.  It is to hold 18,000.





I am adding a picture of the totem pole on the other side of the freeway which is on Stockton Avenue. Through the years this has been one of the things our family has always wanted to see.

Ace Train 27: Stadiums, Extra Train


49ers Stadium


Site for Earthquakes Stadium

The 49er stadium continues to go up.  It is amazing how fast four big cranes can work.  Now I have another stadium to watch, as the Earthquake Stadium will be in San Jose, close to Santa Clara Station.
Ace Train is adding a new later train in both the morning and p.m.  The drawback, they are removing a car from the train I take in the morning, so it will be more crowded.
