Does the Loch Ness monster exist? How about Sasquatch? If Sasquatch exists, can inter-species communication tell us about their history? If the Loch Ness monster exists, how long has it been around and what became of its family?

I keep an ever evolving list of creatures that I would love to one day have as a pet or possible sidekick. The Quitxacotal is numeral Uno (who wouldn’t want a winged serpent God?) Second would be Bigfoot due to numerous viewings of the John Lithgow classic Harry and the Henderson’s. But first runner up is the one creature that might seem a little too creepy to keep around the house; it’s my very own Chupacabra. And not the North American one, I want the original Puerto Rican-winged spiked-back blood sucker itself. Read the rest of this entry »

“Visions of the Multiverse”

Author Steven Manly, published by New Page Books.

Before reading Visions of the Multiverse my only experience with a parallel universe or Multiverse was when Captain Kirk’s evil goatee wearing doppelganger terrorized the Star ship Enterprise. And just like that episode of Star Trek, there are a lot of different colorful theories on the where, how and why of multiple realities. And after 200 scientific publications under his belt, Dr. Steven Manly has assembled a book describing the physics behind those theories and how it all started with Copernicus back in 1540. The book simple in size but thick with science made quick reading with the help of Manly’s tongue-in-cheek writing style honed over the years of teaching physics to college kids.

Without going into too much detail about the theory of multiple Universes, let’s just say Read the rest of this entry »

Located on the West Coast, this isolated lighthouse has a beautiful story to share.

Mary Pesonen was only six months away from a brand new life, but even that short amount of time seemed too long for the pain and hopeless that had engulfed her.  Early one morning, she decided to bring an end to everything by hurling herself off a cliff into the Pacific Ocean.  Did she have second thoughts and regrets as she made her fatal plunge?  Perhaps, for her ghost is believed to haunt the grounds where she lived and died, at the North Head Lighthouse near the fishing port of Ilwaco, Washington.

The life and tragic death of Mary Watson Pesonen in 1923 caught my attention during a summer trip to the southwest Washington Coast with my sister, Linda, and brother-in-law, Ted.  Ilwaco lies near the base of a long spit of land on the north side of the immense mouth of the Columbia River, which forms the border between Washington and Oregon.  The coastal waters are treacherous and the bar has dangerous currents and sand bars.  The area is known as “the graveyard of the Read the rest of this entry »
