Goings On Around the Clubhouse
Spring has finally come to the Kempton clubhouse and the flowers are blooming The Arizona clubhouse also has flowers blooming and the desert quail roaming the back yard. The hot summer days seem just around the corner.
We will be having an autograph party at the Kempton Bookstore on June 3. I will be there signing my latest books and maybe some other authors will show up as well.
There has been some pinball trading and we recently acquired a Cactus Canyon game with an Arizona theme of bandits, shoot-outs, saloons, dance hall girls and old mines. We also picked up a James Bond 007 game as well as an X-Files pinball game, which came out at the height of the television show’s fame, 1997.
I was at History Channel’s AlienCon in Pasadena, California from March 3 to 5. It was a good time with old pals Giorgio Tsoukalos, William Henry and Hugh Newman. Not sure when the next AlienCon will be, but I will let you know. I plan to be a speaker at the Roswell Days conference July 1 to 3.
The bookstore in Illinois is open so take a nice drive in the country and visit. Stop in and play the new pinball machine at the Kempton store: Legends of Valhalla. It is a great game featuring all the Norse Gods!
My latest book is The Bigfoot Files: The Reality of Bigfoot in North America. It is packed with the latest in bigfoot activity. It includes the Bigfoot FBI files and an 8-page color section.
My previous book, Andromeda: The Secret Files, is doing well. It covers the bizarre history of German flying saucer research and the mothership called Andromeda. Order a copy today! The new Season 16 of Ancient Aliens is now airing on the History Channel. Check your local listings. There are more Ancient Aliens Live dates coming up in 2023 including shows in Virginia and New Jersey.
We had a great trip to the American Southwest in September. This trip went to Casa Grande, Sedona, Jerome, Montezuma’s Castle and Well, Tuzigoot, and the Meteor Crater. We spent a couple of nights at the El Rancho Hotel in Gallup and went to Chaco Canyon, Canyon de Chelly, the Hopi Mesas, and the Grand Canyon. Everyone had great time. Maybe we will do a slightly different version in the future. We are considering a trip to the Serpent Mound in Ohio and other Midwestern Native American sites.
We are planning a trip to Athens and then to the Peloponnese and Delphi to look at the many megalithic sites in Greece in May of 2023. This trip is full but you can check out all the details at: https://wexclub.com/events
