Jesus appears at an intersection

 
The Kadizzle's moved to Coati camping area. Coati is just another part of Windy Hill. Strangely we are now in the area where people can run generators 24hrs per day, yet they don't and it is actually much quieter. Sadly we left Gary behind. We had no trouble leaving Generator Willy. The camp host said it was OK for us to use the nice handicapped site if no handicapped people showed up. Kadizzle is mentally handicapped so we are somewhat within our rights. In the handicapped site we have a large paved cement area for our wheelchair, which is nice.

The wheelchair comment reminds Kadizzle of a story Gary told him yesterday. Gary even when he was a career criminal has some ethics. Gary and Kadizzle were discussing people who begged which were actually capable of working. Gary told Kadizzle a story about his old days when he saw a bum friend of his sitting in a wheelchair at an intersection begging. Gary knew this was more than even he could put up with so he stopped and told his friend he had gone too far. Gary told him to “get out of the wheelchair, and get the hell out of here”. So his friend went off pushing an empty wheelchair. This whole story reminded Kadizzle of the miraculous cures in the Bible. If Gary had long hair at the time which he said he did he does have a face that resembles Jesus. Kadizzle can just imagine the scene at a busy intersection observed by a fundamentalist. The fundamentalist sitting at a traffic light would have seen Jesus grab a man out of his wheelchair, and send him off walking pushing the wheelchair. Of course the word would have spread quickly through the fundamentalist community that a healing took place.

Today we meet with Len to plan adventures for the rest of the week. There are three major adventures in store. The Commander is going to do a fire tower hike with an old Hazen friend. Len and Kadizzle are going to do a 70 mile cycle ride through some extremely remote country, and then Len, Kadizzle and The Commander will likely assault the Pueblo Indian Ruin to complete the trifecta.
