When you dig deep at the lands
administered by the Szekely Family you will
find homage to the Spirit of St Frances.
There are many energies on these properties
and yet you will find the St Frances energy
in some of the most sacred places.
As I left Eagle's Nest yesterday, I was in an altered state.
I was pulled down one road, and found a duplicate statue
of St Frances, the same as stands at Rancho Tres Estrelles.
The statues of St. Frances are not in any open areas.
They are off the main paths.
They appear made of wood. He stands with a bird in hand,
and I believe a cup in the other. I want to observe closer
next time.
Why are the St. Frances' statues off the main path?
The main concern of this destination Spa is to provide
good care to the guests who come. There is more a welcoming
than an attitude of pushing something.
Once, a received a communication through Sarah Livia,
that her mother Deborah had read something of mine.
I had used the words "must." She wanted me to be
senstive to the use of this word. "Must" is a pushy word.
It does not ring of invitation.
I find that same attitude at Whole Foods Market Hillcrest
where I desire to influence and help prosper Local Farmers,
beginning with Joe Rodriguez Jr.
There are many choices at Whole Foods Market Hillcrest,
and yet among the choices are Locally Grown organic food.
I have been raising the bar even one step further:
I would like to see customers have the choice of
locally grown, fresh picked that morning foods.
It is the Ultimate Test and worth the Effort:
I would like to Demonstate to all concerned that
the Largest Natural Food Store can have the Freshest Food,
locally grown, fresh picked.

More on Saint Frances influence:
Alex Szekely, God Bless his Soul,
was the younger son of Deborah and Edmond Bordeaux Szekely.
He died of cancer in 2002 at a very young age.
There were two memorials--typical of Essene energy.
One was in a Church. I attended that one.
The other in a Synagogue. My schedule did not
allow me to attend that one.
The memorial in the church has a theme of
Saint Frances. That was how dominant Saint Frances
is in the family consciousness.
In Eagle's Nest, there is also a framed picture
of St. Frances.
There is also the St. Frances Prayer.
Deborah was so very gracious to me at her birthday party.
I informed her that I would stay at the Rancho Tres Estrelles
that night, and that I wanted to visit Eagle's Nest,
the following day.
Eagle's Nest, as I have known it, is the resting place
of the gravesite of the Professor. Luna Rose, let me know
before I went up there yesterday, that it was also the gravesite
for Alex. I did not know that.
I have not been back to Rancho La Puerta in numbers of years,
I have not pinpointed that day. It was a Fall. That was the summer
I went up to Sacramento and visited the Capital for a week,
as a guest of John Vasconcellos. John at that time was in
the final year of his service as an assemblyman.
The last time I was there was the day Twin Soul/Best Friend
was my guest for the day. We did not spend the night.
That was Succot, one of the Harvest Festivals.
I took a few pictures of the Saint Frances statues
yesterday. The stayover Monday was rushed, and the visit
pretty much spontaneous, yet very Life Changing.
Next Time, I will go there with an intent to create Art
that will include the Saint Frances Prayer and that statue.
Here is a photo that I have so far of the statue...
[Gosh, I am feeling so very transformed this morning,
just from one 24 hour period on these lands.]
