🏡 Steve Job's House - Part I 🏡

Steve purchased this home in Palo Alto in the mid-1990s. He lived in this house for over twenty years. He held a lot of business meetings in this house (including on weekends) and eventually passed away here on October 5, 2011, surrounded by his close family.

Location: Waverley Street. Palo Alto, California 94301.

The photo taken was not an easy task. I was being watched and monitored the whole time.

If you look to your left closely a person is standing at the window. The window blinds are up. Before arriving at this house the window blinds were down. After being there for literally two minutes suddenly some mysterious person pulls the window blind up. Giving me a signal to go away. Whoever it was... that person was watching what I was doing.

Shortly, after I was being watched by two private detectives/investigators. They arrived at the scene from nowhere. Unfortunately, they took a picture of my face and my rental vehicle. It got so awkward, that I had to leave the premises voluntarily.

Also, You can feel Steve's energy around the house. I'm pretty sure he planted some of the flowers/trees himself personally.

Bald Eagle at Conowingo Dam from 2016. It was really good that winter.

They seem to be coming back really well. Earlier this week, I saw 3 flying over my home. They were way up there, but the white head makes them easy to distinguish. I live about a mile from the Missouri River, where tall trees and food are abundant. I’ve even found an empty nest one time, though eagles often have multiple nests but usually only roost in one each year.

Conowingo Dam is a Hydro Electric Station on the Susquehanna River in Northern Maryland. In the late Fall as many as 200 Bald Eagle congregate below the dam. When the dam is generating it stuns the fish which float to the surface and are easy pickings for the eagles. Ideal conditions are cold weather to the North and cold weather in the area necessitating more power so the hydro generators run more often. Photographers from as far away as California come for the eagles if its a good year.
