The burning bush was the little train engine that could, that small tugboat that made my heart skip a LENKA BEAT. Here is a photo of the entire Morehead Arnold Rasp Family (at that time, PRE-CRYSTAL), from 1987, August, in front of their home at space 163, in the Rose Grove Ghetto Trailer Park, in Forest Grove City, in Oregon State, USA. Who's that 6th person in the shadow, in the carport? Is that the PRE-BIRTH GHOST of Crystal? How is your family doing? This is why we have walls, borders, locks, independently, locally, not FEDERALLY. Organically, our roots are deeper that way! Dig deep & reach for the stars!

1992-11 - Don, Don's half brother, Jim Atkins, and Jim's friend, Nida. I'm not exactly sure if Jim married Nida or not. They were probably together for a few years. This might have been the first time Don met his brother, in November, 1992. As a family, we went to his side of the family in California for Christmas '92.
