Welcome Paradoxers!
This blogspot will be our new home to share updates on everyone's new cd's, links to music venues, and other activities.
You can also post remembrances, photos, and any other memorabilia you would like to share. It would be great if this could become like an archive for the Paradox -- then and now.
More information to follow as I figure this out. In the meantime, please add your comments and keep the site alive and growing.

Santa Cruz Fire
I am hoping that Mandy and Rand are safe from the new fire that seems to be in the same area as the recent one a couple of months ago. Please keep us posted and let us know that you are OK.
Luck Holds. That fire is far away. The storm last week was a dilly. 1500 dollars worth of fallen trees at the beach house. Ugh. Scarey, but no harm. Whew, that was kinda close though. We hung 26 paintings in our new art gallery downtown yesterday. I have no idea what I'm doing opening a store. None.
Hmmm, I thought I saw him enjoying tofu a little too much. It is pretty fun around here sometimes. A little hetic in a way for us just now, but fun. 1936 was a very good year for Santa Cruz. Perfect back then I imagine. Happy Birthday Bob. (save that for when ever, you know)
Thanks.... But I can't forget that Bob and Helen have many of our same concerns. Fire, wind and trees, and precipitation, though theirs is often snow. We have the flooding river to watch. ....and at the beach house, tsunamis are not out of the question. Icy nights are predicted now. Brrr...... What a wild world.
Yes Rand, but we use the fallen wood for fire wood, take care of it ourselves, save it for next year. That storm was really something, very strong winds. I just hope no tree falls on our house. It's turned very cold, 29 the last 2 nights. No snow, we only get snow when it snows at a low level. I love it! being warm and cozy inside,with a wood fire going, looking out at the snow. Now driving in ice, well that's a whole different story.
Yes, the good wood in the mountains we use in the fire too but the soft elms in the town aren't much for fires. In the mts. I have fir, redwood and boxelder on the ground and none of that is much for fires. Oak, madrone and the like is what we want. Then again, the old elbows aren't liking the old chain saw a whole lot. Snow thanks on the ice driving.

Far out! Congratulations Rand and Mandy.
I think Santa Cruz is a hot place! Do you know Bob was born in Santa Cruz....yes, it was there in 1936.

Glad your luck is holding out, Rand. We worry whenever we see this stuff on the news
Thanks....
