Greetings and I wrote this while on the Pacific Crest Trail at about 10,000 get yesterday near Sonora pass (https://scott-macleod.
Greetings from the PCT hiking south from Sonora pass. The sky started raining just before reaching the summit of the pass ... Which at the top led me to put on an old pair of waterproof Merrell jungle Mocs (moccasins) with no lift, instead of my Birkenstock sandals (with a half inch right leg lift, due to uneven leg lengths), and a waterproof jacket. A number of cars were parked right at the summit of the pass, right across the Pacific Crest Trail way, and I stopped a little below this summit and left the car. Added some other layers like a pullover since it was in the 50 degree temperature range, windy, and high, and started walking south. Inspired to be hiking on the actual PCT again, I wonder if this is partly due to the Pacific Crest Trail name itself, as well as to my hiking it in 1980 and 1982 for 1650-1800 miles of the 2650 miles from Mexico to Canada.
A little ways up the trail and it looks like hiking both south and north from the Sonora pass involves going up, I met a couple returning from a backpacking trip to Latopie Lake ??? or similar ~5 miles away. Both man and woman had snow burnt cheeks, large backpacks and were using ski poles. I asked if there was much snow along the trail. And he said lots. I asked - having slipped down a chute on the PCT in 1980 on a shadow side of Mt Baden Powell in southern California one evening just before dusk, exhausted and looking for a level camping spot after something like a 20 mile day (initially on this 1980 hike on PCT) in May I think... and possibly aiming to reach Canada by September but WITH ICE AXE in hand having come prepared and actually used it to arrest by descent after some 20-30 yards of glissading down - if they had come to any shear parts on snow pack on the trail and wished they had ice axes in addition to their ski poles each. They said no but a buddy had slid down about 80 feet (and am not sure if this was intentional or not).

Poncho gifts from Ed I'm pocket
My Google Maps set for Sonora pass with digital Topo Maps which I was using had blacked out part way up the road toward the Sonora pass and as I was listening to a great deep Raga by Ravi Shankar and Ali Akbar Khan (both who may also have played at the Monterey Pop festival even, as Indians becoming Californians and superstar classical India music virtuosos) ... and who knows why - so I would watch the incredible world I was driving through? - but I rebooted the smartphone near the top, and when I reopened it, the Topo Maps were still there.
Now I sit on the PCT with some light sprinkles falling - and am able to write in this Gmail account... Phone says 'Emergency calling only: ... and a German couple just walked by ... Cool... After some chatting, they said they had been hiking since the Mexican border... Wow ... But initially the man before his partner arrived, when I asked him in English had he just hiked the John Muir Trail, and he said no .. so I'm thinking about this contradictory information... We began speaking 8n German some... Then I switched to English to ask them about their gear and the hike ... Which looked very light and even 'lightweight' as if it hadn't been used all the way from the Mexican border... As they hiked on ... I asked them too if they had been getting food boxes at Post Offices along the way ... Yes and at super markets... They said they had been underway - 'unterwegs' - for 2 months too, but I didn't see this in their hiking gear and bodies ... As they parted,
They wished me a happy day ... Having heard some talk of 'Trail Angels' on this pass 3 times in the past month (traveling over it) ... And last time on a chalkboard at the Sonora pass... I wonder if they could have been travelers from a different country (Germany) with a different set of ethical standards - and even bringing some light to abolishing the illegal sex industry on the Pacific CREST TRAIL (ever so sadly) ... Re TRAIL ANGELS so called ... But glad they were hiking at least this part today and that we talked I'm English and in German (they were good folks) ..
electric and all-wheel-drive in the upcoming Toytoa Highlander in USA ... snow into Buckeye hot springs ... and over the Carson pass road I drove on on Saturday ... coming into Nevada before returning to California
Toyota also hasn’t shared details on the powertrain but it could possibly have solid-state batteries—rather than the more-common lithium-ion variety—and a dual-motor, all-wheel-drive electric drivetrain.

Miracle Hot Springs ? Buckeye Hot Springs ? Travertine Hot Springs? Wild Willy's Hot Springs (around the Sierra mountains in California)
Ma, Dick, Pin, All,
Good morning to all of you from near Buckeye hot springs East of the Sierra mountains. Having adventured to Buckeye hot springs and soaked this morning, I made my way to the beautiful nearby TravertineHotSprings all around the town of Bridgeport CA near the stellar Sonora pass and its Pacific Crest Trail. Heading there now to hike a bit both north and south ... PERHAPS turning back if I come to snow cover.
Was just going to amble around Travertine Hot Springs without soaking, - but was it a little white and black piping plover, with a very short hair (kind of cute how it walks) that I took cues from to have a soak in the lovely first pools? Said bird as I was standing clothed near the first pool walked up to a tiny nearby pool, and stood at its edge, and chirped. I watched it thinking I'd walk around the beautiful travertine formations here, but it continued to stand at waters' edge, it's left eye seeing me, and chiro ... not insistently, but I wondered what kind of bird human communication might be occuring and how this might work from the bird's perspective. ... https://wiki.
To cut to the long and short of it, here's more about journeying to Miracle Hot Springs last weekend, as well as circumnavigating the high Sierra and My Whitney... And visiting this o so central TravertineHotSprings again last weekend (and first on Saturday May 14th ... Possibly after visiting it in the 1990s on a Green Tortoise adventure hippy bus trip arriving at night ... Neurons are firing re stimulation of a memory... And it only takes a single neuron to stimulate a memory I remember friend scientist George Alexander MD saying ... Perhaps from his studies at Yale as undergrad) ...
Greetings to you, and I hope this finds you well. How are you doing? Here's more about Miracle Hot Springs in the Kern valley, as well as about Wild Willy's Crowly's hot springs and Travertine Hot Springs east of the Sierra mountains and potentially regarding virtual Harbin Hot Springs in a realistic virtual earth for history and genetics and soaking.
From the SF Bay Area and Canyon CA to Miracle Hot Springs in SoCal, over the Pacific Crest Trail south of Whitney, then north to Wild Willy's Hot Springs east of the Sierras, then took the Tioga Road up to Yosemite National Park to its East Entrance, but needed reservations to pass through to get back to the SF Bay (& which cost $35), so headed back east 11 miles to Hwy 395 again, then north to Travertine Hot Springs. From Travertine, after soaking, headed back over the stellar Sonora pass, and found right at the top, the amazing Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) with signs (which I couldn't find on Sat May 14, partly due to too much snow cover), this time, - at ~9600+ feet :)

Quite a trip on Saturday 6/4/22 and Sunday 6/5/22 traveling - circumnavigating all around Mt. Whitney at 14,505 feet and the high Sierras (from the SF Bay Area to the SF Bay Area), and may have caught a glimpse of Whitney from the southeast part of the eastern Sierra after turning off Hwy 178 & eventually onto Hwy 395.
Miracle Hot Springs on Saturday afternoon ~
Sequoia National Forest here, haven't seen Mt Whitney at 14,505 some feet, from the central valley maybe due to smog, but have internet access again, & may be 10 minutes from the hot springs. Am about to turn off the stellar road, for the past 15 -25 miles, onto the Miracle Springs road, after an initial 4 hours of driving through blah CA agricultural over industry lands ... Lovely evening too. How are you? ![💕]()

Scott (Very early Sunday morning) ...
Very beautiful drive into these springs ... Through Golden but dry, dry mountain, Canyon landscapes, - what rocks & rock formations! ... Arrived at Hobo campground at Miracle Hot Springs, with nearby Kern river flowing briskly ... seemed better to soak potentially in the morning ... and maybe regarding exploring sharing it with you virtually, maybe:) I walked through some of the dirt potholed parking areas, with many people's vehicles parked right on the river, looking briefly for the hot springs pools along the side of the river ... Didn't find any, like those I had seen in pictures ... Maybe the river was so high that they were mostly submerged ... Hobo campground seems a bit low brow, on a Saturday night with a bunch of cars, but I didn't see alcohol openly and yet am a bit wary of scams ... Will camp close by up the road a mile away, and explore some pools in the morning:) Hoping you had a good day and week, Ma! I'll have my 'eyes peeled ' for the 14505 feet of Mt Whitney in the morning. Good to have gotten a good night's sleep last night in 'unsafe house' north of Berkeley, instead of heading out on F 6/3/23 around 8 pm after sending out the WUaS Minutes (http://scott-macleod.![🙂]()
'
' Am camped up a high bluff over a roaring little Kern river in a California dry canyon valley on Kern canyon road, in the Sequoia National Forest, a land of many uses. The night sky is incredible, so light filled with myriad speckles, stars of varying intensity, fields of milk droplets, with familiar constellations shining out ... The big dipper, Orion's belt ... Across the valley is the main road, with an occasional car. No houses or other buildings to be seen. The new sleeping board, a 2' x 4' x .5" plywood sheet, under an inflatable Thermarest camping pad, is great! My head and shoulders can now rest on support instead of falling into the gap behind the passenger seat, and with the back hatch of the vehicle open, my feet can stick out a little newly (with no more torquing of knees, and even when back hatch will be closed, I've gained another 1.5 feet of sleeping space under my head and shoulders with the plywood board, and with a doubled over pillow on it, it's good:) & am appreciating the fresh air of this little sleeping berth too. Am glad to have an internet signal on the high perch with a great view down-canyon and up-sky, and in this sleeping time, while writing on my smartphone. Not a lightning Ethnographic description of Miracle Hot Springs yet, but a little vignette of some traveling to a springs in the California world of Sequoia National Forest without any Sequoias yet ... I'll have my eyes open for the Pacific Crest Trail ahead today, which part I may have hiked on in 1980 :) Sending love, ![💞]()

Scott At Miracle Hot Springs in the Hobo campground (which could have been a happening place in the 1960s and '70s, a focus of my academic research),
I looked in the early morning around 7am along the Kern river and among all the camping vans for the pools, but couldn't find any. Could the water be too high? I had read too that there's a Uranium mine about a mile away, and with the river flowing high, I finally found one largish stone enclosed pool at river's edge, put my fingers in the water, which wasn't warm, and so decided to head on to Lone Pine CA, east of the Sierra mountains, where I had stopped in 1980 when seeking to get my hiking boots resoled, while hiking the PCT.
In driving to Lone Pine, I crossed the Pacific Crest Trail on Hwy 178, excited, and was reminded of the 400-500 miles I had hiked from Mexico North to about here in 1980 (https://www.fs.usda.gov/
Almost Tweeted with Picture of Hwy 178 & PCT in Google maps: Hiked the #PacificCrestTrail in 1980 from Mexico North, and crossed here in Kern valley Area south of Mt Whitney (~14,505 feet high) How to add this in 1980 in #wuAsVR? Just visiting #MiracleHotSprings in Kern valley too > Heading up the east side of Sierra mountains, maybe back to the SF Bay via #Yosemite :)
Lone Pine California in the eastern Sierra had more hitchhikers in 2022 than I've seen anywhere else in a long time ... And heading north and south and west into the Sierra mountains themselves. Interesting ... I had a quick look to see if I could find the park in Lone Pine CA where I had met in passing Randy in 1980 who had taken too much acid in 1973, but no luck ... Lone Pine CA, a little bigger than 42 years ago, is still a small western town in the desert with the beautiful Sierra mountains soaring above it to the west.
Drove north through Big Pine CA, and Bishop CA ... And stopped at Mammoth Gear Exchange with used camping gear seeking a roof rack for my bare roof 2016 Toyota Prius C that could do much (for Kayak, and thin Yakima roof container, or bicycle, or a wide and thin roof containers) including supporting a roof tent even - eg for kids' sleeping - which kind of also billows over the side of the car to the ground, possibly for shade and standing up, 2 of which I had newly seen in the Hobo campground at Miracle Hot Springs. As I continue to seek a life partner to begin a family with, I was also impressed with the number of attractive western outdoors' oriented 20-something yo women in this Mammoth Gear Exchange store on a Sunday midday. I was also looking for a tall man's touring bike with a 25" frame and 18 speeds that I could also add a Zap electric motor with throttle on handlebar for going uphill (which I had in the 1990s on my bike in SF and see the Zap electric motor here ScottMacLeod.com)... but asking about this, the Gear Exchange had neither bike nor Zap electric motor for bicycle journeys. It also did not have any roof racks. Am seeking a new Zap type bike motor even built into the back hub of a wheel made by NASA or similar so super light so that I could lift the whole bike easily into the rooftop of a car. And Consumer Report has just reviewed Electric Bikes including just one with a throttle (and see this here ScottMacLeod.com too).
In Bishop CA, in 1980, I had also found the resources, while hiking the Pacific Crest Trail on a 'shoestring' on $10 in each food box to get my hiking boots resoled ...
And texted Ed about this:
"Memories of hiking the Pacific Crest Trail in 1980 Ed. Bit of a deja Vu moment ... After hiking 300-400 miles of the PCT from Mexico North, I came down from the high Sierra mountains just before hiking the John Muir Trail... and getting $10 in every food box care of general delivery in the USPS (sent by a Reed College friend, which food boxes I had put together before the hike), it wasn't enough to resole hiking boots then. I thought I might be able to earn the money, and had found a shoe repair in Bishop or Lone Pine CA, Irv the cobbler, who could do it. So I started to look for ways to earn the $40 I had been quoted. Just now in 2022 I saw a big burly man in Overalls and a white T shirt, as I drove along Bishop's main street, and was reminded of the kind electrician, wearing similar, whom I had met in 1980 who gave me $40 to get my hiking boots resoled after I told him in a parking lot that I was hiking the PCT and needed to resole my hiking boots ... Kind of cool ... and maybe it's a pattern in Bishop too to wear overall dungarees and a white T shirt. Nice memory of a kindness shared ... Which I seek to do for others from time to time:)"
I headed north, and found gas at Fort Independence for $5.87 relatively inexpensive (compared with the $6 59 / gallon or more I had been seeing) - perhaps because it was on an Indian reservation (Paiute I think) and with a Casino in the same building as the gas station... A new Tax Free cannabis store had been put up just to the north of this ... interestingly.
As I drove farther north, and thought about driving back to the Bay Area through beautiful Yosemite valley, I caught a glimpse of Keough Hot Springs' sign, which I had read about a few days earlier here -
25 Best California Natural Hot Springs
10/19/2021 by DayTrippen
- and also about Wild Willy Crowly's hot springs. I searched in Google Maps for Wild Willy's Hot Springs and it was close, so I decided to head there and then possibly drive back through Yosemite to the SF Bay Area.
Wild Willy's Hot Springs was free and natural, and beautiful between the Sierra mountains to the west and another mountain range to the east in the middle of a plain without any buildings to be seen from the springs. (The National Forest Service helps manage this one too, like both Miracle Hot Springs and Travertine Hot Springs ... as Free Natural hot springs ... it's working out ... in a low key way and with other organizations too ... interesting after the 1960s and 70s, I speculate).
Getting a vibe from the somewhat full little Wild Willy's Hot Springs' parking area, with a lot of young people, families too, and with their kids, I walked out on the well constructed boardwalk toward the springs in this open plain. There were two pools, and a ~28-32 yo woman leaving as I got to the pools, smiled very broadly, happy after soaking, and said 'there's a hot and a warm pool'. As I got to these springs, almost all of the little natural pools had people in them. It was a little scene, almost but not quite too crowded. Were the springs clothing optional? I had a bathing suit in hand, and one woman of a couple in a central pool kept standing up bare breasted, as if possibly too hot and was cooling off. There were two people in different pools with smartphones out, and some were taking pictures ... which affects the dynamic around hot springs (and where Harbin Hot Springs doesn't allow cameras on property or didn't, although they sneak in occasionally), - and where I've gone to Harbin since about 1993 or '94 ... just when the World Wide Web with graphical user interfaces, very early broadband and re browser Wars too were emerging). So I sat for a while on the bank by the (hot I think, not checking out the warm ones 25 yards away) pools, and with a different vibe from Harbin (re my Actual-virtual Harbin Ethnographic book), sat in half lotus with jeans on, meditating just a little, then decided to put on my bathing suit, which I did sitting turning away from everyone and discreetly in the open plain, and got in a natural pool in the middle of a number of them with much space and where there was one couple. After a while we began to chat.
Had they been to Harbin Hot Springs? That was the one that burned down wasn't it? Is it open now? I think so, but I haven't been there.
He had a kind of crew cut haircut, and she was standing up from time to time. Are these pools clothing optional? Yes ... Did they know who Wild Willy was? No ... Although I had put on a bathing suit, I mentioned I had written a large Ethnographic book about Harbin Hot Springs entitled "Naked Harbin Ethnography" (not mentioning the subtitle ) ... And that I had written 4 other books of poetry also Harbin inspired. He asked if I knew the poetry of Kenneth Rexroth... (a beat poet too, sort of) .. I didn't... He said he's known for his poetry of the eastern Sierra mountains and hot springs, he said. I observed that there are a lot of hot springs and geothermal activity east of the Sierra mountains with many hot springs to explore... A kind of hot spring heaven. We started talking about beat and hippy poetry and the 1960s and '70s when hippies may have been open and exploratory regarding nudity, for example, compared with today. Beat poet-wise, I asked if they knew Gary Snyder's poetry, the hot springs' poetry of whom I don't know. The crew cut man maybe in his 70s said he didn't but that Rexroth became a professor at UC Santa Barbara (my alma mater) - some sort of possibly sepceial lecturer one website said - and I mentioned that Gary Snyder went to Reed College (not mentioning that Snyder became a professor at UC Davis - and not mentioning that I went to Reed and UC Santa Barbara).
I went on to say that my "Naked Harbin Ethnography"
(subtitle"...Hippies, Warm Pools, Counterculture, Clothing-Optionality & Virtual Harbin")
... book is partly about creating a virtual Harbin Hot Springs and mentioning these amazing new YouTube immersive Onsen hot springs' information technology -
Onsen (please view in smartphone ... and then eventually in the back of your eyeglasses? but not while 'driving' an autonomous vehicle:) ~
https://youtu.be/X6YBetANDUI
https://youtu.be/X6YBetANDUI
I think it will be amazing and great when we can visit virtual Harbin in the back of our own sunglasses (pointing to the REI glacier glasses I was wearing). I also mentioned how we could all create a virtual Harbin or virtual Wild Willy's Crowly's hot springs in Google Street View with time slider Maps Earth TensorFlowAI by adding photos and videos nowadays. I also mentioned the vintage fire engine sometimes accessible or findable at the Harbin Hot Springs' gate house, in Google Street View,
where one can move the time slider from the year 2012 with no fire engine to the left of the Harbin gate, to 2007 and see a vintage fire engine. The writing and creating new kinds of history aspect of this is amazing ... that we could all even wiki-add photos if these exist of wild Willy Himself whether they be from the 1970s or the 1930s or even the 1800s. And then we could potentially, in Google Street View with time slider and as this history and his, Wild Willy's, Avatar Bot developing becomes conversational and interactive begin to ask him questions and converse with him.
There's sometimes an amplifier effect I find at hot springs and when sharing ideas and almost philosophically or in innovative ways, and I was a little uncertain regarding having mentioned my books, and she asked what my name is to look up the books ... and with the smartphone cameras in the beginning... And whether they know Harbin people (they both said they hadn't visited Harbin, but his mentioning Rexroth and UC Santa Barbara lead me to wonder ...) ... And re the alternative culture... And however Harbin burnt down ... And with Harbin rebuilding ever so slowly and Sunheart Sunheart passing ... Regarding the strong energies of Harbin and such hot springs and counter-culturally too ..
And will my poetry mostly be associated with Harbin? regarding current WUaS Academic Press author's page - http://amazon.com/author/
I didn't stay long at Wild Willy's Crowly's hot springs, but a bit cleaner after being underway overnight... And seeking to return to the Bay area that evening, I decided to head on to Yosemite then because of the entrance gate to Travertine Hot Springs (which I had first visited on May 14 2022 - and possibly in the 1990s on a Green tortoise trip at night..) ... Which is exactly 61 miles north of Wild Willy's Crowly's hot springs.
Yosemite Tioga road travels ... beautiful ranger at the gate ... Interesting National Park Service choice of ranger...
Back to Travertine Hot Springs, soaking briefly in the first big pools... Talking with a couple about her seeing a snake and I think getting a little scared... As I walked back from the far pools where I first met them .. he had taken a photo of the snake there... I was walking near what looks like a mini Sphinx emerging geologically out of the rock formations... And I saw a snake which seems water oriented... A later Google search suggested 4 snakes in the area, 2 of which California King snake or Mojave Green could have been it (and snakes generally seek to avoid people, so I'm not that fearful of them, but I think she was pretty unsettled, in a deep way, and may have chosen not to go into the pools as a consequence ... perhaps the experience bonded them together closely but not at the hot springs) ...
Sonora Pass and was excited to find the PCT at the top ... In that stellar road and pass, I discovered some new places to return to for a backpacking trip with my own family in the future, not at the summit, and also the opportunity to hike the PCT maybe this summer further...
And in seeking to explore facilitating making a realistic virtual earth for history and genetics and pharmaceuticals and soaking, in Google Street View with time slider, Maps Earth TensorFlowAI, check out this screenshot picture in my blog -

Hi Ma, nice to talk last night although the phone connection was not working. Good traveling around the southern end of the Sierras, north along the eastern Sierra mountains on 395, stopping at Crowly's hot springs - then heading up to very beautiful Yosemite and its Eastern gate on the Tioga road for 11 miles (it costs $35 just to drive thru Yosemite from 4:01 pm to 5:59 am if one doesn't have a reservation - then back down to 395, and then to Travertine Hot Springs then back over the Sonora pass and found this time the PACIFIC CREST TRAIL at its summit (unlike on Sat., May 14, 2022) then back to the SF Bay Area. (Good to get into a kind of "hot springs" and traveling "body mind space"). Glad Navinchandra Doshi said that the "Canyon place is mine" and possibly re justice questions regarding the little faun that was 'freed,' by his lower back gate. Navinchandra may be navigating various things in saying this about which I don't know. I think we may learn more about what things - and from a state of California and federal government legal processes working together perspective but regarding alternative networks too. Glad to be coming into a place, a house in Canyon, where I might raise my family, if Navinchandra Doshi (with Pin and the Mazumdars' thinking) - on my 5th lease agreement letter now - words play out. Am not sure what the implications for the missing check are ... but am hoping you can put a stop payment on it tomorrow and all will be done. ...Abolition-ally regarding protecting people, innocents, women, kids others, and hopefully this curious new development will work out for the best
Better internet access at Travertine Hot Springs - LTE on smartphone - than at Buckeye hot springs - with H and H+ on smartphone...and see emails below to my mother about Buckeye hot springs.
Fond regards,
Scott
Buckeye hot springs email
Dear Ma,
Am appreciating you much, and greetings from Buckeye hot springs on the east side of the Sierra mountains in a very beautiful outside place, just north of Travertine Hot Springs, and Bridgeport CA, - and another kind of gem. Glad to travel this weekend as I continue to develop Work World University and School and the WUaS Corporation.
An adventure, am enjoying the brilliance of this little river valley, the moon tonight, and developments too in a way from my Physical-Digital Harbin Hot Springs Ethnographic book ... And while sleeping in the back of my Prius C subcompact small car camper on the helpful new board under my inflatable Thermarest camping pad hatch open..
While a little too California culturally, interesting collection of people at the hot springs, - a cordial outgoing together man, 3 women and another man in one group... Not for me, but one woman... a speech pathologist could be another example of a woman who could be a partner... and re meeting in the context of an outgoing group, who came down from the beautiful pools high on the side of the hot springs valley, where they were soaking, and beyond which I found an amazing and lovely pool to soak in, a tree separating us with little communication ... and after we had talked initially as I arrived there, all 5, to the hot pool down below by the river (not shared values or even morals somehow ...) ... Perhaps they came down to talk further, and because I held back a little from connecting with them, choosing the empty pool beyond theirs initially (Glad to have talked with a man from India in the river pool at first who is working in IT here from Hyderabad & appreciate India culture and people somehow... Due to its meditation culture perhaps) ... Am seeking a MD woman partner, potentially, even further, who could be great, ... although a school teacher, warm and radiant and good and smart with whom to connect could be good too - perhaps in the context of a spontaneous or new group such as this one ... Glad I'm circulating... And opening such new learning & meeting opportunities... Tempus fugit... And good to see that a woman like her at Buckeye hot springs wouldn't be great too I think... But that such groups could open up opportunities synchronistically ... With the cordial outgoing California man playing a role in the meeting...
SF chamber music is happening on June 18th after WUaS Monthly Business Meeting at Noe Valley ministries' concert venue or hall in San Francisco on the afternoon with musicians from Contra Costa county interestingly .. may check it out ...
Appreciating somehow the space you've helped create in living life to the fullest... And especially if aging reversal genetic drug therapies emerging extend such possibilities, Ma... Thank you ![❤️]()

! Scott #BuckeyeHotSprings, East of the Sierra mountains, just north of the stellar #SonoraPass & its #PacificCrestTrail at ~9500 feet, Free natural remote rustic very beautiful on National Forest Service land not far from #TravertineHotSprings & Wild Willy's Crowly's @HarbinBook Sing:)
Good morning, Ma,
further regarding CC-4 MIT OCW-centric World University and School and with the WUaS Corporation, am wondering, having mentioned in the Buckeye hot springs 'Watsu water shiatsu water dance,:regarding my large book) in Harbin's Domes across from the Main side area of Harbin before its fire ...
And then having received from Pinterest social media a picture of Watsu and a
'YOU'VE GOT GOOD TASTE' -' message' on smartphone - and you've got good taste too, Ma ! ... (And maybe regarding the outgoing group who were a little bit curious in possibly their California tastes )
.. and regarding also the unsafe house north of Berkeley and moving back into a SAFE Canyon HOUSE (for a song ... and abolitionally re justice questions)
... with developing World University and School 's Academic Medical Center with Warm Water Cure and Physical-Digital experiments and WUaS Longevity Genetics'Institute too on the ridge in Canyon...
am not sure whether Pin Mazumdar is involved in sending me the PINTEREST picture messages with You've got good taste in them ... And regarding the criminal mentally ill former landlords in Canyon who could have awful taste... where I would be much safer due to a possible Lock up'and'salvage house'process in Canyon) than north of Berkeley.
... and both you and I possibly having good taste could lead to a safe new house and in Canyon for Free... And thanks to Pin Mazumdar and Ed Smyth MD and Larry Viehland and the CA FTB communication,. and state of California and federal government legal processes working together...
Thank you again for your help!
Hoping you have a good day Ma ![❤️]()

Hi Ma from near Buckeye hot springs... Just attached a picture of what I woke up to this morning ... :)
Desiderata coming to mind too -
Just shared picture with David Thurston too and who may be on Cuttyhunk presently...
Hi David, Greetings from Buckeye hot springs in the morning East of the Sierra mountains. How are you? Living life to the fullest, continuing to seek a life partner, Asylum seeking again around August 1 or moving back into a safe Canyon 94516 (per John Sargent MD's thinking too?) Don't know yet. Met 4 chiropractors at Buckeye hot springs and was reminded a bit of Zach (whom I miss but didn't know that well), was curious even if Zach knew somehow the cordial outgoing California man in their 5 person group (which felt too a little 'cultish' and which I'd seek to avoid in future) somehow too. Picture is the wake up view in amazing Buckeye valley near many other natural free hot springs around. Work World University and School and the WUaS Corporation are going and maybe with an Academic Medical Center with Warm Water Cure and Physical-Digital experiments and WUaS Longevity Genetics' Institute in Canyon 94516 in autumn. Cuttyhunk plans still possibly for August or September.... How are you doing? And are you on Cuttyhunk now? Happy Cuttyhunk house and my warm regards, Scott (http://scott-macleod.

Hi Ma, Dick, All,
My mother just asked me to resend the photo of what I woke up to this morning near Buckeye Hot Springs ... :) .. .and which I mentioned in the 3rd Buckeye hot springs' email (including with a note to David Thurston a friend since the 1960s I think - and on Cuttyhunk) at the bottom of what I shared with you this morning.
Here too is a very broad idea for aging reversal research (posted to all of my Twitters) -
For #AgingReversal & with iterating precision at Cellular & Molecular levels for EVERY SINGLE ONE in #
