Janicekra… the blessing should go to Holy Spirit who gave me the “nudge” to carry out this assignment. It came fairly easy with most of the locations I was familiar with and I loved researching the history each day also. It got a little challenging with Day 24-“X” and Day 26-“Z”… So i brainstormed with a couple of friends, one I’d mentioned the Retired Speech Therapist and the other a Retired Kindergarten Teacher (both their families have roots in agriculture). Before I found ZMUDOWSKI BEACH in an old California road atlas… for today’s Prayer & Dectee, what was rising to the top: ZEPHYR or dirigible being another name for a blimp-type flying machine so it could ZOOM over waterways, ZOOPLANKTON - little critters floating in the water column, and ZEPHYR COVE which is on the Nevada side of Lake Tahoe.

The website has a typo, it should be: www.americanrivers.org

Susan, this is the third time I've tried to post a comment in appreciation of what you've written & prayed for. I remember you from last summer's Paint Your State.

... According to the website "Lyrics.com" the song "Kern River" was written & recoded by Merle Haggard, backed up by The Strangers in 1985.

Janice, I so appreciate your response about the Imperial Valley Fatmers and just feel compelled to share the 4th patsgraph of Dan Keppen's article: "All of the families are located in a region that provides 90% of the leafy green vegetables consumed in the U.S. during winter Thus region also supplies alfalfa hay, an extremely important crop due to its rich nutrient value as feed for animals, particularly dairy and beef cattle, horaes, and sheep."

Thank you Janice. I don't know how to edit my initial post, I inadvertently spelled "connected" with two "o's and only one "n"

Thank you Leanne for all that back ground and history...

EAGLE CREEK, Eel River, and all the rest of the "E" named waterways... This morning February 2nd from my home in Central California, I read out loud the GH15 Prayers & Decrees for America's Waterways and Psalm 91. Eagle Creek is a stream in Tuolumne County at 5758 elevation, runs through Eagle Meadows, situated near The Dardanelles.

Forrest... very thoughtful 🕊️
