"I hope it snows again. That was beautiful. It's so black after the fire, you can't tell the land from the dead trees."If you have read the first book, you must read this second book as well. NM Reed will tell you the agonizing reality of the event's trails. It unravels much more than a fire incident.NM Reed tells the story of evacuation and getting the dogs and horses back to the ranch in book one. However, in book two, Reed will tell you the story of the struggles of getting back on their feet again. On the 8th day after the fire, the residents of Calaveras County were finally allowed to go back to their properties. Reed is working and trying to keep things going. A guy from UPS delivered a bolt of wood and some donations came by. Their generosity gave Reed the encouragement and hope to continue. In mid-October, the same year the fire happened, the politics has started already and the county is threatening to fine anyone who brings out a trailer to live in without doing all the proper paperwork first. Then the guy from the UPS told Reed that FEMA will come in and sift through her stuff and cart it off, but that they will be billing PGE because they are admitting they started the fire. One thing that makes this book hookable is because of its rawness and authenticity. The way NM Reed narrates the story feels like you're with her on that day. It is detailed and she didn't even hesitate to leave a word behind. These are qualities of true stories, ones that you must look for when seeking for good ones.In December 2015, a guy working from SBA came over and reviewed the damage to her barn. He measured the barn and estimated the damage of just the shop contents to be over 20 grand. They could not replace the barn but they could get her some working capital for the winter, to replace machinery and some wood. After being in drought for a decade in California, it finally rained. Big storms are coming again in January 2016. Meanwhile, PGE talks about "RESTORING" her property knowing it won't ever happen but even if she would get money from them, she will always be plagued by problems now that the balance is ruined.What the author went through was surreal. She was deprived during the dreadful occurrence. The aftermath of the Butte Fire was as frustrating as the fire incident itself. As much as NM Reed likes to think that everything was just a bad dream and she still has her barn, she has to face the ugliness of truth. She has to stand and go back to start again.After the Fire: finding life again in the burn scar. The Butte Fire Re-population, follow-up to Home Is Where the Horse Is: Surviving the Jackson Butte Fire EvacuationThe follow up story of the Jackson Butte Fire disaster, "A Safer Place to be". When the fire broke out on September 9th 2015, the author was forced to evacuate her ranch in the woods in the 15 minutes provided by the county sheriff. The evacuation itself was a disaster. But the follow-up story is heart breaking. This week to week journal of what happened between re-population and the final settlement with the power company 3 years later, the story unfolds like a horror novel. Everything seems to go wrong, from illegal tree poaching to gun fights, buried bodies and running for their lives. But the author lives to tell the tale, of bare black earth and flooding rain and mud slides, to the ground turning green again with over-abundant brush and grass growth. Horses escape, and the feral cat finds her way back outside, even without her feet. An amazing often hair-raising, and sometimes heartening tale of survival and perseverance against all odds in the burnt out wilderness of Calaveras county, California after the Butte Fire disaster of 2015, when 74 thousand acres were blackened in a matter of hours and lives were shattered or lost.
NM Reed has been riding horses most of her life. In this second horse book, she tells the narratives of her many ride stories. Over a decade of rides are chronicled here to provide fun and fascinating reading for anyone interested in Endurance riding, horses, and sports in general. The ups and downs, the trials, and frustrations, and the rewards of a difficult but satisfying pursuit. Her horses are home-bred and trained by herself, and she even does her own horse shoeing! Come ride along with her into the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range in Eastern California and the tough rocky outback of the State of Nevada badlands. "The Wind in my Mane" is sure to become a classic for horse lovers and sports lovers of all creeds and ages. Introduction I love horses, and riding; I always have, since my first memories. And I still feel reborn each time I get on a horse. And I love the wilderness. And yes, I love going fast. So, it was with great joy when I discovered many years ago that Endurance riding combined these favorite things of mine. I don't in fact like getting up early in the morning. But on ride morning I am OK with it. The experience of seeing the new day's sun rising over a new vista is something I cherish. Did you know that all the horses whinny at first light? They also whinny just as the sun goes down too. Learning this while camped out with my horse was worth it all .Long distance trail riding has always been my favorite thing. Doing it with a large group of people brought it all together for me. Endurance riding can be fun, fast and competitive. But when I get on a horse in the early morning hours to head off on a days endurance ride, I know I've done all this work for something so much more intriguing to me and much less tangible. Something difficult to pin down. But a story can say so much. And the stories that follow I hope to convey the depth of my experiences. Wilderness endurance riding really has been a journey to the heart. To my own heart, to a much deeper understanding myself. And into the heart of my horse, developing a deeper relationship with my horses I never thought possible. And into the heart of an unknown wilderness, which I hope to capture in story and pictures I've taken on the trail. I mean, lets face it, ride camp is usually in the middle of nowhere. Then from there, we head out even further. Often times we are riding in pristine areas of wilderness, sometimes where no human has even stepped in perhaps a hundred years. The outback of Nevada, in mountains called the Dogs Skins, with the snow blowing horizontal over my horse's ears. Or in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California, in a desolate place on the river called Murderer's Bar. Not many people go there. Who would want to? I mean, there's really nothing there. But to ride a horse through, traveling through country on trails that were established by Indians, pioneers and outlaws, now that gives me goose bumps. And horses can often travel country and terrain humans find too difficult, or just too plain remote to go. Twenty-five miles out in the high desert from nowhere, turning between two black rock mountains heading deeper into nowhere, and my horse decides to turn left, not right where the ribbons are, when he knows for sure that is the way home, will remain forever memories for you. These stories are of my adventures on endurance rides. I don't want to talk about statistics, or gear, or the human politics too much. I want to take you on a journey to the heart, the heart of a rider, and heart of a horse, into the heart of new territory on the AERC Endurance rides I have traveled. So welcome to my ride camp!
Part 2 series The Occult of the Visitor Gods. We have lost the common knowledge that we live among visitors from other places in the universe, which wad accepted as true and real centuries ago.. The clues are everywhere in old literature, but we insist on calling it fiction. Starting with the Bible this series picks apart clues and joins them into new narrative replacing the words "our lord" with visitors and our world changes inside us. Forgetting this common truth has led us down a path towards ignorance, frailty and deception, not to mention eminent self-destruction.The famous Holy Grail story is one such story that tells of visitors influencing our lives with the introduction of advanced technology of the Grail and ark, and the world changing Ritual of theSacrament and the making and using of Holy Water. What? Christianty came from visitors? Yes, read the account here written by Sir Galahad of King Arthur's Round Table fame who was visited by shining beings in a glowing craft and was instructed to write down the history of Britain's Kings in the year 717 ad. Jesus's half brother Joseph's was given the Grail to lead his band of followers across the Chanel using a magic sail given to him by the night time visitors to the British isles to establish Christianity there and foster Christian kingship over the resident Saracens.. The magic of the Grail, an alien artifact of Visitor origin helped them. King Arthur and the Holy Grail are old stories shrouded in mystery, and well known and loved by all. Rewrites abound. But what is the truth? Were these people even real? New translations of the Lancelot Grail story show us amazing revelations. In the introductory story of the origins of the ancient kings of Britain, suggest that they are result of meddling by off-world visitors. If Jesus was a hybrid of earthbound Mary and the off-worldVisitor named Gabriel, as the recently visiting Plaedians tell us, then Jesus's special powers come from the stars. When an attempt was made on his life, altho he could not be killed by us mere mortals, that heinous act so angered the visitors that they continued to return and visit Joseph of Arimithea and his son, Josephus, and crowned them Bishop and instructed them in the sacrament and transubstantiation rituals. Yes; they created the Christian religion and its rituals as a result of the crucifixion of Christ, as punishment and revenge, but also as an attempt to save us from our barbaric selves.. The Holy Grail itself was a gift from them to allow these earth humans to live. It provided food and Healthcare in the severely adverse conditions of the British isles in the years between Jesus's resurrection and the reign of King Arthur in Camelot. They carried the Grail in an ark just like the Hebrews in the desert: same thing, Holy vessel provides food/ life to a chosen group, chosen by visitors, for what ever reason, to help make civilization on a hostile planet where humans are not indigenous perhaps...? It's all there... I have removed flowery confusing apologic language leaving clear descriptions of spacecraft, men in shining glowing space suits, bright scanning beams, high-tech tricks and pyrotechnics... through to the Merlin stories and Sir Galahad being visited by 'angels' who instructed him to write this whole story down from a kindle-like electronic device which is later confiscated after he finishes the lengthy tale in his monastery cell.
