The Lone Woman of San Nicolas Island
Hey folks here is a Californian based story about Juana Maria enjoy. 1853 ad there was an Indian woman who spoke a language not known to the natives was found on San Nicholas Island by Cptn George Nidever from(1802-1883).
Cptn Nidever arrived in California in 1834. A renowned hunter known for his skill in tracking Otters along the californian coastline and on the Channel Islands. Nidever was also an accomplished sailor, at one time employed as a pilot by government surveyors when they developed maps of the coast and the islands.
San Nicholas is the most remote of the Channel Islands, and located 53 miles off the Coast, west of Los Angeles CA.
Cptn Viscaino landed on San Nicholas on December 6, 1602. According to him it was densely populated at the time.
The Southern Channel Islands (Santa Catalina, San Clemente and San Nicholas) appear to have been inhabited by people of the Takic branch of the Uto Aztecan language. Skilled sailors at their craft.
Not much is known about the San Nicholas Islanders from 1602 to 1800 except that by 1800 the population had declined markedly.

Featured video from Lucid Dreamer @ Youtube
What is it about coffee well I usually have 1 cup a day due to my anxiety disorder. I drink instead Green Tea, People often drive for miles to shops like Starbucks, Coffeebean, and Tierra Mia for their caffeine fixes, though they can have a cup of Joe at home speaks volumes.
How the Coffee Roasts
To take coffee consumption to a whole other level of tastes is to roast the beans resulting in a darker tone and releases its oils to the surface.
American Roast: A staple form of coffee in the US households medium brown in color but flat or lacks in brilliance when it comes to taste.
Brazilian Roast: Dark in color, and flavor however this coffee is not harvested in the country of Brazil.
French Roast: Espresso like in flavor without taking away the smoothness. The color of the beans like semisweet chocolate with oils that comes to the surface when roasted in a coffee machine.
So how do you folks like your coffee leave your comments down below thank you.

Rw at Balboa Park
L
Balboa Park open 24 hrs and offers free wifi started off as 1400 acres of land put aside 1868 by San Diego civic leaders. “City Park”, the scrub-filled mesa that overlooked present day Downtown San Diego sat without formal landscaping or development for more than 20 years.
The first steps in the Park's renewal were made in 1892, largely due to the contributions of Kate Sessions. Sessions group offered to plant 100 trees a year within the Park as well as donate trees and shrubs around San Diego city in exchange for 32 acres of land in the Park boundaries to be used for her commercial nursery. 7 popular species, including the birds of paradise, queen palm and poinsettia were introduced into the Park’s horticulture because of Sessions’ early efforts. In fact, many of her original trees are alive and visible today. Kate Sessions earned the title “The Mother of Balboa Park” at the 1935 California Pacific International Exposition.
