In a perfect world we would eat each meal at the table with our loved ones. We would eat grass fed beef, free range chicken, home grown veggies, and organic dairy products, all with no preservatives. Meals would be made by mom’s loving hands with care and patience and would be cooked to perfection. Wake [...]
Ramona Community Trails and Pathways Master Plan: I have ventured a guess that most of you do not know what that is, or if you think you may know, you’ve probably never seen it. I am thankful for those of you who are aware and knowledgeable regarding the Plan.
Ever thought about or said something about the “trail to nowhere” in Ramona? I know some of you have because in all the years I’ve been involved with trail advocacy I’ve heard people mention, “The trail to nowhere” or ask why “we need to build this trail to nowhere.”

The Mr. Ramona Handsome Pageant as it was called in its initial year was meant to be a parody of the Miss Ramona Beauty Pageant. I know because it was my idea to raise money for Ramona High School baseball.
The original winner was Saul Villagomez. Yes, that Saul Villagomez — the fire chief.
“Come, let us worship and bow down, let us kneel before the Lord our maker. For He is our God, and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand.” (Psalm 95:1-2)
The psalmist gives compelling reasons for rendering to God the worship of reverence. He is the creator of all things. That deserves awe, respect, an applause, an Oscar!
He is Lord. “Lord,” here, is God’s proper name — Yahweh. Yahweh is the covenant name of God and occurs 6,823 times in the Old Testament and speaks of his uncreated, eternal self-existence.

Trail miles in Ramona may seem tough to come by, but there are many locations that are available for riding and hiking that you may have never considered or been aware of. So many are uncharted gems, yet some are right in town, like our Community Park. I think all too often people discount the Ramona Community Park, or Wellfield Park as it is also referred to, all too quickly as too small or uninteresting. Think again!

Every few years trends pop up in terms of nutrition. I’m sure you’ve noticed them yourself. Atkins, South Beach, gluten-free, paleo, zone, and as of late G.I.. No, not eating like a G.I. in the Army with MRE’s and mess hall food, but glycemic index eating.
Each week my training staff and I sit down and go over ways we can better help our clients succeed in fitness and in life. This past week we decided to take a look the glycemic index.
Five reasons why you can’t change…
Yep, you’re right, you can’t change your life.
Other people can do it — start a business, get a new job, develop a new idea.
All those other people know how to do things. They have special talents, knowledge, and skills that only the lucky have.
But not you, you tell yourself. You don’t have any of those skills or talents to help you do anything.

“Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair.” These are the words the young maiden, locked away in her tall tower, hears when someone wants to visit her. This is also the world in which I’m living these days as our dance studio’s production of this story nears.
As I wander through the canyon these days, the weeds, like Rapunzel’s hair, are growing long and thick. And like the witch in the story I, too, am enjoying the beauty
There will be fewer horses in the future, thanks to National Equine Resource Network (NERN) holding a low cost gelding clinic in Ramona.
Fourteen horses were gelded on April 15, making them unable to reproduce, which is something that I take very seriously. Fourteen may not sound like very many but over their lifetimes they could have helped to produce 1,200 more horses, maybe even more if they were added to a breeding program that used artificial insemination or some other very active means of breeding.

I just got back from a weekend earning my CrossFit Level 1 Trainer certificate. It encompassed fitness, movement, nutrition, and education.
I spent my weekend working on my passion and expanding my knowledge base so I can come home and be motivated and recharged to help people achieve their goals in fitness and wellness.
Fitness is my passion and I am blessed to have my passion as my career.
