keep tahoe blue.

hey hey hey. so i'm on a decluttering extravaganza. without going too far, i'll let you know that there is a cleaning sweep happening right this minute (well, not quite, cos i'm blogging)... but while i'm slowly but surely working my way through storage items i havent seen in years... i will be throwing out just 'traces' of memories... but not in a sad, oh, i'm throwing out memories kinda state... but rather, i thought id leave a record of my re-jigged memories here on the www. a virtual memory? thats probably a bit random and too abstract or just a silly play on words.

ok. so i found this:

4130 Manzanita Ave
(room 27)
South Lake Tahoe
CA 96150

(530) 544-6461
(530) 544-8061 (fax)


folks. that was the address i was living at in tahoe! how it is so easy to forget. but so easy to spark a memory.

manzanita ave. where the owners ' rob and barb' were some crazy californian hicks. i sure hope that the address doesnt come up too easily over time in google.

i lived in a motel for 4 months. but i tell you what. they were 4 of the best months of my life! i will never forget it.

that was a long time ago... 2001-2002 winter(northern hemisphere)

for those that dont know-- or didnt know me then. South Lake Tahoe is a little beautiful town on the south east part of Lake Tahoe-- 3 hours West of San Francisco, California (USA).

Its got beautiful Snow mountains surrounding the 2nd largest/deepest? lake in Northern America. Im hoping to go back one day. That would be great.

Oh, and i found a copy of my 'Social Security' card. Oh, thats 'so american!'


gee whiz. the things you find!

i guess its important to note that these 'flashbacks' bring a sense of wonder to them. well, that was certainly a busy and crazy, interesting time in my life.

now. its 2008.
i wonder what things i will look back on this year?

:D

so many things to look forward to.
decluttering for a start-- to a clear mind.

a new job. a new house perhaps? a new fresh start! and its nearly March!! I'm glad that everyday is a new start :)
