Even in the midst of danger there come intervals of peace, If we possess enough inner strength, we shall take advantage of these intervals.

Wanted to avoid clambering up and down muddy hillsides, so this trail was ideal: completely paved path along the level shoreline. We doubled back at the 2-mile mark to get just enough exercise.

Why the electric vehicle charger? Because Gary is sold on the environmental benefits of electrifying transportation. And he’s looking at ways to contribute more toward easing the climate crisis by making the use of battery powered vehicles more convenient.

Venture capitalists expect some of businesses they back to fail; if that never happens, they aren’t taking enough risks. Similarly, a government program aimed at advancing technology is bound to end up with some lemons; if it doesn’t, it’s not extending the frontier.

La República de California was an unrecognized breakaway state from Mexico, that for 25 days in 1846 militarily controlled an area north of San Francisco.
Mexican officials had been concerned about a coming war with the United States and the growing influx of Americans into California. The rebellion was covertly encouraged by US Army Captain John Frémont.
“California Republic” appeared only on the flag the insurgents raised in Sonoma. It indicated their aspiration of forming a republican government under their control.
The Bear Flag Revolt and whatever remained of the “California Republic” ceased to exist on July 9 when US Navy Lieutenant Joseph Revere raised the United States flag in front of the Sonoma Barracks and sent a second flag to be raised at Sutter’s Fort.
