The main thing I learned from Rich, who has an incredibly high standard of wellness, is that the medical establishment that reigns in America, big pharma, hardly has a clue as to the underlying causes of illness and how to reverse them. Germany is far more advanced in this area. But we don’t have freedom of medicine written into our Constitution, and the love of money runs big pharma, and they try to suppress everything else.
So the revelation to me is that when we pray for people to get healed, God knows what needs to be done and we often really don’t. So it’s important to pray, realizing this, praying that God will do whatever needs to be done — not limiting what needs to be done through our limited understanding, mentally hogtied by big pharma, who act like they know much more than they really do — and who actively suppress real medical truth.
And of course, there is also the demonic factor, which is another subject. I’m talking about natural forces here, which is what Rich deals with.
I expect that when revival comes, The Third Great Awakening, that many will walk in total, soaring, 100% health: ONEcanhappen!

Mom and Rich Newman, D.C.
I left myself a few days before and after the printing class to shoot the Sequoias, but the weather didn’t come through. So I went to Carmel and drove highway 1, instead, when I arrived in California. And after the class, I shot some close-up flower photos here, with permission. They were really nice! There weren’t a lot of flowers in bloom, but I got one really nice shot that I’ll post someday.

While in Seattle, it dawned on me that I should visit Art Wolfe’s gallery, only to discover they were closed, 6pm on a Friday night. The hours open info was not shown; though, this new exhibit was supposed to have started the day before. Not a soul was in sight.
Later, I spoke with a former employee at an art supplies store, and he said he was frustrated by how short the gallery’s hours were back then.
Well at least Art’s landscape photos weren’t displayed. I don’t feel I missed out as much. The horse photos would be interesting, but I’d really like to see the prints of the photos I’ve only seen in books and on the internet.
Here is what the photos look like lit up.

Some of these prints were huge!

I’ve been watching the Tour of California in the last few years. After the cyclists ride across the Bixby Bridge, south of Carmel, the commentators talk about the Redwoods along this portion of Highway 1 — but they don’t show them. And I’ve often wondered why.
Perhaps it’s because they’re mostly nonexistent.
These trees were among the only stand of Redwoods that I noticed during the drive — unlike the groves that can continue for miles in northern California. This group was only about 500 foot deep.

I’ve been wanting to shoot this bridge for awhile. But the weather was so nasty that I didn’t even take out the 5D2. It was raining and blowing and even somewhat foggy.
And most of the drive down the long, windy stretch of highway 1, south of here, was more of a chore than a joy because of the visibility. At least I had the sense to make sure to negotiate it during daylight.
Though I couldn’t see much. I’m glad I did it. Besides Bixby, my redwood question got answered — which I’ll explain tomorrow in another pic.

Weston Gallery —
the third oldest gallery in the nation
And the curator was a joy to talk with
There is a wall in here I would recommend not looking at —
which is what I did —
lust freedom!
The curator allowed me to take photos,
but the coolest Ansel Adams ones
had the bad wall reflection in it
So…

I was walking on the beach at midnight,
and I spotted this interesting structure.
So I thought I’d check it out.
