I HAVEN'T POSTED ANY OF THIS ON MY THREAD YET. I HAVE TOO MANY READERS THAT NEVER POST, AND MOST OF THE ONES THAT POST ON MY THREAD, POST HERE AS WELL.

I PROBABLY SHOULD GET THEM CAUGHT UP. THEY ARE REGULAR READERS AND I GUESS THAT THEY DESERVE THE WHOLE STORY.

TODAY WAS THE FUNERAL. JESSIE WAS NOT THERE. AS I UNDERSTOOD HIS MOTHER, EARLIER TODAY, SHE SAID THAT JESSIE WOKE HER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, NIGHT BEFORE LAST, WITH BLOOD RUNNING DOWN HIS ARMS, HE HAD SLIT HIS WRISTS. HE IS IN LOCK-DOWN IN A MENTAL INSTITUTION AT THE PRESENT.

AT THIS POINT, THE MOUNTAIN HAS BEEN TAKEN OUT OF THE LOOP. THERE ARE NO PLANS TO RETURN. I WILL NOT TAKE ANYONE ELSE UP THERE. AND THE BOOK WILL WAIT UNTIL I AM READY TO FINISH IT.

IT RESTS ON ME, ALONE. I WILL FINISH IT OR DIE TRYING.

JESSIE NEEDS TO HEAL, AND THAT IS HIS ONLY JOB.

GOD BLESS.

HI MIKEL,

I DON'T POST ANYMORE BUT I WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW THAT I WAS THINKING ABOUT YOU. IT SEEMS THAT YOU ARE GOING THROUGH A PERIOD IN YOUR LIFE WHEN ALL THE CRAP IS HITTING YOU AT THE SAME TIME. ABOUT THE ONLY THING YOU CAN DO IS LET YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY AND THE GOD YOU LOVE, HELP YOU CLIMB THE HILL IN FRONT OF YOU. HOLD YOUR HEAD UP AND DRIVE ON. I HOPE THE TREASURE YOU FIND IS PEACE OF MIND.

DON JOSE, I POSTED "I WILL FINISH IT, OR DIE TRYING." KINDA SCARY, BUT IF I EVER GO BACK, IT WILL BE, FIRST OF ALL, TO BREAK BREAD THERE.... JUST ME, MY LORD AND THE MOUNTAIN. HE HAS THE POWER TO CHANGE ALL!

THANK ALL OF YOU FOR HELPING ME GET THRU THIS DIFFICULT TIME. I WILL PASS THAT ENERGY TO JESSIE, SO THAT HE KNOWS ALL OF YOUR KIND WORDS.

HE IS A FRIEND IN NEED. WE, WILL BE HIS FRIEND IN DEED.
GOD BLESS.

MIKEL

Hey Milel, have some , May the treasure spirits be yours and your friends, and guide you both forever.np

 

[PROSPECTORMIKEL]

I JUST FOUND OUT THAT JESSIE'S GRANDMOTHER IS TO PICK HIM UP THIS AFTERNOON. IF SHE TAKES HIM HOME WITH HER, IT MAY BE A FEW DAYS BEFORE I SEE HIM.

I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING HIM, AND SHARING WITH HIM, ALL OF THE THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS THAT HAVE BEEN OFFERED ON HIS AND MY BEHALF.

I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT IN REGARDS TO PHYSICAL DAMAGE TO HIS ARMS. I DO EXPECT TO SEE A BROKEN HEART THAT NEEDS MENDING.

THE ENERGY FROM ALL OF YOU WILL GO TO HIM.

THANK YOU, ALL VERY MUCH.

I GOT TO SEE JESSIE FOR A FEW MINUTES AS HE CAME HOME. I TOLD HIM OF THE MANY KIND WORDS AND PRAYERS ON HIS BEHALF.
HE WAS VERY GRATEFUL FOR ALL OF THEM.

THE SPECIALIST THAT HE SAW (WHILE IN LOCK UP) HELD HIM FOR AN EXTRA 72 HOURS. HE SHOWED JESSIE HIS CHART AND EXPLAINED WHAT HAD CAUSED THE BREAK-DOWN. HE CALLED IT A "SUICIDE COCKTAIL", THE OTHER DOCTORS THAT HAD SEEN HIM PUT HIM ON DIFFERENT MEDS WITHOUT GETTING A PROPER HISTORY ON HIM. EACH ONE CAUSED DIFFERENT SIDE EFFECTS, AND ALL OF THEM TOGETHER WERE NEVER TO BE USED AT THE SAME TIME.

JESSIE SAID THAT HE SAT DOWN WITH HIM AND EXPLAINED IN DETAIL WHAT HAD CAUSED EACH SIDE EFFECT SO JESSIE COULD UNDERSTAND. HE LOOKS HAPPIER AND HEALTHIER THAN HE HAS BEEN IN MONTHS.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT. I HOPE TO SEE HIM OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS FOR A LONGER VISIT.

What the heck - you are telling him to go to the GALLOWS?!!! Yikes! Boy do you have a mean streak!

Watch the picture ya Oro de Tayopa you.. On second thought perhaps you qualify for the gallows.

I WANT TO GET YOU FOLKS UP TO DATE. I POSTED THE FOLLOWING, ON MY THREAD LAST NIGHT, (SATURDAY) AFTER RELEVENTCHAIR POSTED TWO VERY GOOD SUGGESTIONS. CREDIT FOR BOTH GO TO RELEVENTCHAIR.

[h=2]GONE FISHIN'[/h]

I TOOK THE 'GO FISHING' IDEA TO THE TEST TODAY.

I WENT THRU MY FLY ROD AND FLIES, THEN PUT ONE OF MY EXTRA SET-UPS THRU THE CLEAN UP AND TEST ROUTINE.

I WAS JUST FINISHING UP, WHEN JESSIE WALKED AROUND THE CORNER. HE ASKED WHAT I WAS DOING. I TOLD HIM I WAS SETTING UP TO TAKE HIM FLY FISHING. HE WAS READY TO LEARN AND GO.

I GAVE HIM A SHORT LESSON ON CASTING ON THE LAWN. FIVE MINUTES LATER WE WERE ON OUR WAY TO THE FISHIN' HOLE.

I CAUGHT THE FIRST FISH AND JESSIE CAUGHT THE REST.
END RESULT... HE IS HOOKED. HE HAD A GREAT TIME AND CAN'T WAIT TO GO AGAIN.

WALKING THE CREEK BANK PROVED TO BE MY DOWNFALL. WHEN I GOT HOME, I TOOK A PAIN MED, AND A FOUR HOUR NAP.

MISSION SUCCESS.

~ GLAD YOU HAD FUN ~

MIKEL,

HOW MANY FISH DID Y'ALL CATCH,

AND WHAT KIND(S)?...

 

[PROSPECTORMIKEL]

HEY CROSSE.
I ONLY CAUGHT THE FIRST ONE. JESSIE WAS RUNNING UP AND AROUND BOTH BANKS OF THE CREEK. HE CAUGHT SEVERAL AND HE HAD A HIT BY A PRETTY GOOD SIZED BASS, BUT WHEN HE SET THE HOOK, THE REEL SLIPPED OFF THE POLE AND HE WAS TRYING TO MAKE SURE THAT HE DIDN'T LOSE THE REEL AND THE FISH GOT AWAY. I SAW THE POLE BEND JUST BEFORE THE REEL FLEW OFF. I'M PRETTY SURE IT THE CATCH OF THE DAY.

AS FOR WHAT KIND OF FISH I CAUGHT, I THINK IT WAS A SHAD, BUT IT WAS BIGGER THAN ANY SHAD THAT I HAVE SEEN.

IT WAS A GOOD DAY TO BE ON THE CREEK.
