I recently aired a Tales of the Magic Skagit podcast episode about the life of Laurie Wells, whose parents, Hiram and Alfreda, settled in Mount Vernon in 1877.During the interview a reference was made to “Ridgeway” as the name of the area where the Wells' family home was located. I recalled that the Skagit County Historical Museum's archivist, Mari Anderson Densmore, had written about Ridgeway in her book, “Lost Cities” of Skagit — Rediscovering Places of Our Past, and I wanted to share that bit of our history with you all. So, here is my reading of “Ridgeway” from Mari's book.

One of the most enduring mysteries of all time is what happened on Oak Island in Nova Scotia?    Was there treasure buried there and is it still there?    One of the most popular cable television shows ever,  The Curse of Oak Island  on History Channel, investigated the mystery spending millions of dollars over ten seasons and could not find the treasure.    Both Don Ruh and Scott Wolter have had firsthand involvement with the island and its mysteries over the years, Don sharing two maps with Rick and Marty Lagina via his friend and co-researcher Zena Halpern, and Scott with his multiple visits to the island.    However, they had little interest in the mystery until early in 2023 when a trove of encrypted documents came to Don as part of their research of the Knights' Templar Cremona Document materials.    Once decoded, the five messages and three sketches and one new map of the island revealed shockingly detailed information about who constructed, “ The Underground Project,”     put treasure there and what happened to it.    Finally, the over six-centuries-long mystery has been solved.    Incredibly, the documents also provide new insight into the fabled Holy Grail.Forensic geologist Scott Wolter was host of History Channel' s hit show, America Unearthed, which followed him on his quest to uncover the truth behind controversial historic artifacts and sites found throughout North America and beyond.  Scott is the author of three books about the Templars and Freemasons, including the wildly controversial,  The Hooked X: Key to the Secret History of North America. Scott is a 32nd degree Freemason and Templar Knight, and is married to author and co-researcher, Janet Wolter. They have two adult children and two grandchildren. Donald Ruh, author of  The Scrolls of Onteora: The Cremona Document, was born and raised in Mount Vernon, N.Y. and worked as an electronics technician in the manufacturing process of medical equipment, retiring in 2008. He is an honorary member of the New York State Archaeological Association, and a member of the New England Antiquities Association (NEARA) since 1998. He has worked with Scott Wolter since 2006 to decode and understand the complex historic maps and other materials contained in the Cremona Document.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

In this episode, I welcome the incredible Dr. Michelle Maidenberg—mom of four, therapist, author, professor, and trauma expert—for a deep conversation on parenting through imperfection, emotional healing, and living a life aligned with our values.We explore her “ACE” framework—Acceptance, Compassion, and Empowerment—and how it helps both children and adults move through emotional avoidance, self-criticism, and stuckness. Dr. Michelle shares moving client stories that show how our inner child often holds the keys to our deepest healing, and how compassionate parenting (of ourselves and our kids) can open doors to connection and authenticity.We also talk about the well-meaning but harmful ways emotions are dismissed, how to sit with discomfort, and why it's never too late to repair with your children. If you've ever struggled with your child's big feelings—or your own—you won't want to miss this episode.

The 250th anniversary of the American Revolution's opening battles came and went with little fanfare. Colonial militia engaged British regulars at Lexington and Concord in April 1775. The Revolutionary War was underway. King George III would soon declare the American colonies in open rebellion. Is everyone saving their energy for next year's celebration of the Declaration of Independence? In this episode, historian Lindsay Chervinsky, the executive director of the George Washington Presidential Library at Mount Vernon, talks about the collapse of royal authority that was evident as early as 1774-75, well before formal independence was declared. The colonies were in a state of virtual independence, marking a transformation in the minds as well as the everyday lives of the American revolutionaries.

It's our original podcast, Ketchup On Pancakes, and we're recapping 2024 as 2025 rushes forward in a blur. On this one, we're joined by friend/boyfriend Barry Toner from Ireland, someone who's joined us in the past, down in the basement where it all took place. We're looking back, on this annual By The Fireside with a tribute episode, dedicated to our dear friend Andrew. As we sit, beers in hand, by the crackling fire, Andrew's very own drums nearby. We share a few songs featuring or in tribute to Andrew, as well as looking back on travel to Maine (for a drama club camp arts residency) and Ottawa (Kerry and Barry joining the parents on a road trip), and to the things we're proud we tackled, in fitness and in mental health for instance. We keep up the silly and imaginative with feature Cassette Clip of the Week and new feature Word of the Year, while lamenting the loss of a once-in-a-lifetime sort of fellow, a friendship lost. So farewell, 2024 (with your last taste of security in the wider world), and to friends gone along the way in the march of time. That's how that was. That's how it was. That's how it is.

Bible Reading: Hebrews 10:23-25"My class is going on a field trip to see Mount Vernon, George Washington's home," Anissa told her parents. "We've been learning about him, and I need to get books from the library and write a report on his life.""That's great," said Mom. "I'm sure learning about him before the trip will make it more enjoyable." So Anissa got to work, reading books about George Washington and writing her report.When Anissa arrived home after the field trip, she told her parents about the good time she'd had. "It was so much fun to see the things and places I'd read about. I even knew some things the guide didn't mention."After eating breakfast on Sunday, Dad stood up to help Anissa clear the table. "Okay, Anissa. Let's hear your memory verse before we leave for church," he said."Um, well, I don't know it yet," Anissa confessed. "I was too busy this week. I'll go study it right now." She hurried off before Dad could reply.Learning the verse took longer than Anissa expected, and she had to hurry to get ready for church. When it was time to leave, her hair wasn't quite dry and she couldn't find her Bible. After hunting a few minutes, she finally shrugged and ran out to the car without it.After church, Anissa sighed as she got into the car. "I haven't been getting much out of church lately," she said."Anissa," said Mom, "why did you do a lot of reading and write a report about Mount Vernon before going on your trip there?""My teacher said I had to. But I'm glad, because learning about it ahead of time made it more special!""Why don't you do the same for church?" suggested Mom. "Prepare for it by setting aside some time the night or morning before to read your Bible, learn your verse for Sunday school, and ask God to prepare your heart to worship Him and listen to what He has to say to you.""Good idea," said Dad. "But don't forget that we go to church to worship Jesus and learn more about Him with other believers. He is present there with us, helping us grow in our relationship with Him--whether we feel it or not." –Mary Rose PearsonHow About You?Do you enjoy going to church? Have you tried preparing for it ahead of time? You can do that by giving yourself time beforehand to read your Bible and pray that God will use the church service to speak to you and others. Church is a special event where we get to be in God's presence with other believers. Prepare your heart so you'll be ready to worship and hear what He has to say to you. Today's Key Verse: I was glad when they said to me, "Let us go into the house of the Lord." (NKJV) (Psalm 122:1)Today's Key Thought:Prepare for church

Happy Snanniversary, beloved listeners!! We're back after our long break and celebrating our FIVE YEAR (???) anniversary with another film commentary, so load up your DVDs or what have you - it's time for a watch-along of National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets! Despite the massive What We Sneep backlog, we skip that segment to get right into the thrilling and extremely confusing action of National Treasure 2. During the process of the film, many questions come up: why is everyone and their mom in this film? What does the Lincoln Assassination have to do with any of this? Is Bruce Greenwood's version of the president single? Only some of these questions are answered, and more continue to pile up even until the credits roll - you'll have to listen to find out more. Or ask us, I guess, but then you would miss out on National Treasure 2 and no one wants that. Probably. Also in the process of uploading this episode, it was discovered that Mount Vernon has a National Treasure themed tour, which was extremely exciting until we found out the cellar is closed for renovations right now. Can't win ‘em all.

THE FIRST INAUGURATION PROCESSION ON THE ROAD:  4/8   Travels with George: In Search of Washington and His Legacy, by Nathaniel Philbrick. https://www.amazon.com/Travels-George-Search-Washington-Legacy/dp/0525562176/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= When George Washington became president in 1789, the United States of America was still a loose and quarrelsome confederation and a tentative political experiment. Washington undertook a tour of the ex-colonies to talk to ordinary citizens about his new government, and to imbue in them the idea of being one thing—Americans. In the fall of 2018, Nathaniel Philbrick embarked on his own journey into what Washington called “the infant woody country” to see for himself what America had become in the 229 years since. Writing in a thoughtful first person about his own adventures with his wife, Melissa, and their dog, Dora, Philbrick follows Washington's presidential excursions: from Mount Vernon to the new capital in New York; a monthlong tour of Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island; a venture onto Long Island and eventually across Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina. The narrative moves smoothly between the eighteenth and twenty-first centuries as we see the country through both Washington's and Philbrick's eyes. 1789 April 30 Federal Hall NYC
