Message - Billy. Hey there. The yard projects are going well although
they are now to make the resale of this property better. The mountains are
really beautiful and this property rocks. The truth is these people are freaking
crazy and we are leaving for Japan next Spring. The two main reasons for coming
to America was to dispose of the condo and to go through family stuff. The
reasons for wanting to leave are many but suffice to say this place is filled
with gun owners, drug addicts, bigots, and crazy people. America is no longer
the place it was and certainly not a good place to raise a family. Very happy to
leave. Hopefully you can come and visit again before leaving but if not then of
course can meet in Japan. The other day we met Aki and her family at a party
they were holding at their house. Was a lot of fun and we all really got along
well. They will no doubt be good friends from now. Please send email when you
can. Howie.

Message - Good afternoon. Wow, leaving in the Spring is pretty quick.
I'll definitely try and make it back up to your place before that. Yeah Julian
is full of all walks of life. The (responsible) gun owners never really bothered
me though as I am part of that group. Tools of the trade in my line of work. I
knew there were several drug addicts in Julian and have arrested a few of them
from time to time. I'm sure there are of few of the ignorant and bigoted red
neck types, but to be honest I had never ran into them with my family. America
is definitely different from when I grew up as well. I always try to seek out
the good in everyone as much as I can. There are some in which the good is so
slight, you can't see it at all. I have met some very bad people over the years
who should never see the outside of a prison cell. At the same time I have had
the pleasure to be some truly good human beings whom still give me hope in
humanity. Speaking of good people, I'm glad you guys finally had a chance to
meet up with Aki and her family. I'll be coming back down to San Diego in the
beginning of November. I'll be participating in the MADD walk on the 4th and
will try to get make it up to Julian. I'll email you when I am down and see if
you and the family are available. I would love to see all of the improvements
you have made to the property. Well I had better run! Take care. Billy. |
