Rw's Random Life Downtown Poway photography

                            On a beautiful sunny day I visited this ole railroad themed town of Poway Ca. The Poway park has a mini railroad running around the property usually on the weekends or special events it was closed on the day I visited so was not able to see the train however there are some old railway cars on display in certain areas.

On June 27, 1883 the patent for this homestead was obtained by Niles Nelson. The home, which is now in the park, is not the home originally constructed in the late 1800s, but a later Nelson residence which dates to the early twentieth century.

Mr. Nelson, who at one time served as trustee on the Poway School Board, died in 1921. In 1925, Helene Nelson, wife of the deceased and administrator of his estate, settled his final accounts. The farm was willed to the three Nelson children subject to a life estate of Helena Nelson.

On October 2, 1930 the children Albert J., Oscar and Ida Nelson Stone, daughter, terminated the life tenancy of Helene Nelson, deceased.

In 1943 the farm was sold to H. W. Frame of Poway Ranch. The Frame family, Harry, Agnes and daughters Linda and Judy lived there from 1943 to 1956. The home served as a rental from 1956 to 1959. Read more here

Rw's I Am Spoken Word

"I Am"

I am an enigma a silent one of love, and humanity.

I I  I I am a creative spirit with limitless bounds as well as new horizons.

I am seeker of truth and knowledge, light, and humility.

I am a fragment of God above all  to evolve to my higher self physically, mentally, and spiritually.

I am a powerful soul trapped in a flawed body with potential to be  greater.

I am a quiet riot of emotions galore.

I am all over the place.
