  • Sturgis 79th Black Hills Rally

    Yesterday I arrived at one of my favorite places in the world, Chris’ Camp in Spearfish SD for the 79th Black Hills Rally. This is my home away from home in the Black Hills of South Dakota. I started staying here over 10 years ago when my Father and I go to Sturgis, this year is the 79th annual Black Hills Rally. My first time riding out here was 1983, 36 years ago. You know what they say, if you desire to get good at something practice, practice, practice.

    I will be out here for the next 16 days before I head for Wisconsin to see friends and Family. The rest of the riders in my group will be showing up through out the next week and a half. Most of the group will be leaving to head back home around the 9th of August and I will be in that group.

    I am in charge of the first 4 camp spots in Chris Camp, and my group as a whole has been staying here for over 25 years. Heimyville, (Named after our founder Ron Heimbecker) presents itself annually in Chris’ Camp. A few years ago the right to lead Heimyville was passed from Ron to Me.

    Challenge Excepted!

    It is hard to explain to people what it is like to be a small business man, a Jeweler, 50 weeks of the year and then the other 2 weeks let it all hang out at Sturgis. This is where I prove to myself what I am really made of. This is the strength that most will never know is inside of them.

    I Know It Well!

    In 2013 I moved from Green Bay WI to Daytona Beach FL along with my daughter Ariel. Since that time I have been blessed with being at both Bike Weeks, Daytona & Sturgis. Learning to incorporate my entire life (Work & Leisure) into one entity has taken some time and effort, but I am getting closer to pulling it off. This may be the Year of the Biggest Changes of my Life.

    Stay Tuned!

  • Pasco Washington

    Headed East in the Morning.

    Today was the last show in the state of Washington. I was once again at the Pasco Flea Market. Wonderful time! Being the fact that it was in the 90’s, having the ice cream truck across from me this weekend was definitely a benefit. I was able to spend the last week with family in the area that I do not get to see very often, It was a very special week in more than one way.

    Today I had a customer that purchased from me yesterday return to purchase more. What made this any different than any other previous customer?

    Let me try to explain the Pasco Flea Market.

    This is one of the largest Flea Markets in the North West, it is also a True Spanish Market. They had so many things I did not know what they where, it was almost embarrassing. Please understand my Spanish is limited to taco burrito Mexico. Most of my customers this weekend spoke little to no English, so to have a customer return that did not speak English was a first for me. I also ate food that I have no idea what it was. It was all wonderful and I enjoyed it all, Way Fun!

    I am getting everything ready to leave in the morning for the Black Hills of South Dakota. I have about a 1000 miles and no time schedule to keep. I will deside along the way what I would like to see or do. I will be setting up to work in Chris Camp in Spearfish SD when I get there.

    For those of you that do not know this, I go to Sturgis SD every year. This is an annual get away I do with my Father. This year I get to play for two weeks at my favorite playground. It just Keeps Getting Better. Let’s see what happens next?

  • 2019 Tour

    Last fall when I arrived in Washington State I was unaware of how long I would be here. In preparation for the upcoming winter I prepped the garden in case I was here this summer. This is how close I got to experiencing the up coming bounty from this piece of Mother Earth. So close

    I have never truly had the ability to explain to people how my life actually works. After almost 53 years I’ve come too terms with my life, and that it will never again be like others. That being said, I lack the ability to fully explain almost anything about how it works it to others.

    This was the yard yesterday as I was leaving the Farm on Sunset Ridge for the last time. This is the location on the planet that was used to show me who I am. I had no idea last fall how or why I ended up in Portland OR. in the Great Northwest.

    Now I Understand and it Rocks!

    To say that the individual that will be leaving the state of Washington is not the same individual that showed up here last year, would be an understatement! I found what I have been looking to find all these years, M.E.

    I now get to restart my journey without the doubts that used to be in my existence. Along with the magic that I always knew existed, it’s about to get interesting!! Stay tuned.

    Life is always this Magical!

  • Enjoy Independence Day!

    Remembering How Blessed We Truly Are!

    by, Mark Kapla

    Simply for being born in this country we have abilities given us that people around the planet could not even imagine. My life is a poster child for this fact. Think about it for a minute.

    For 7 years now I have come and gone as I have seen fit. Not because I was told to do this or that. Simply because I chose to be here or there, just because I decided it. Our ancestors came here from somewhere else for the freedom we get to live everyday. Some are forgetting that!

    We Are All Truly Blessed!

    I started Magnet Rocks as it is today, in June 2012. I knew my life was going to become something more than my life was at that time. I have been living my belief system for over 40 years now, this is in no way my first rodeo:) I knew that everything I have ever put energy to has succeeded, so it was time to truly challenge myself and see what I could do. Little did I know what was about to happen.

    July 4th 2019 is reminding me of all that came before me to enable me to have the life I have today. All the individuals, past and present. All the times of wars and peace, past and present. All the decisions made by Americans before me to Keep and Love this Country for Those that Came After Them.

    Freedom Has Never Been FREE!

    Remember if anyone is silenced by another. We All Lose A Freedom that was Paid for by Someones Loved One’s Death!

    Remember That!

    Remember, Your An American, Act Like It!!

    God Bless Us All!

    Happy Birthday America

  • 243 Years Has Taught Us What?

    Independence – Freedom?

    As the 4th of July 2019 presents itself I ask myself an apparently simple question. What does this date means to me? What does the idea of Independence Day and Freedom really mean? At least to me personally, in my own world.

    Just sitting back and thinking about it for a moment. I live in a country that is so blessed the poor have cell phones. There are more first generation millionaires in this country than anywhere else on the planet. Many in this country surviving on food stamps are obese. Poor from other locations on this planet loose their lives and lives of their children just trying to get to this country. A country I was blessed to be born in. I had no part in the location of the planet my Mother birthed me. I’m letting that sink in for a moment.

    Talk about Blessed!

    How did it end up this way? It’s not like this everywhere on the planet. Almost nowhere in fact! This didn’t just happen by accident. There is an Under Lying Truth that runs through all that live here. It’s By Choice! REMEMBER THAT!

    I live here because I choose to. Millions walked in through our border to the south, I can walk out if I so chose to. Just like everyone can say, no different, we are here because this is our home. My Grandfather was born in Poland. All of us are from somewhere else if we go back far enough. Our species didn’t start on this continent.

    So what has 243 Years taught us?

    As I am enjoying this National Holiday that Truly Represents Every Individual that somehow finds themselves in this country, I am going to keep this in mind. Every Blood Line in this county came from somewhere else. Every Blood Line left family behind to come to this Country. They all came to do the SAME THING, to have a BETTER LIFE for there Blood Line. That’s what my Blood Line did. I’m sure yours did to.

    So historically speaking all of our Blood Lines arrived here to do the same thing. To have the best possible, happiest possible, healthiest possible, and as long a life as possible for their Blood Line.

    Talk about Blessed!

    So that is what Independence Day and Freedom means to M.E.

    Happy Independence Day Everyone!!

  • Helping One Person Might Not Change The Whole World,

    But it could change the world for that one person.

    Enjoying my Sunday morning sunshine and coffee watching the world as I see it. What a Beautiful sight, everything I have put into place, just where I left it. Lol I see my day/life as an unfolding magical journey that presents itself as what comes next. It is a beautiful site, and I Love it.

    Magnet Rocks as seen now started 7 years ago in June 2012 after trying to get it going in 2000. When I see the progression of my experiences over the past 19 years, it is fun to sit back and remember all the good, bad and ugly of it. I always try to remind myself that I could not be here if it where not for everything that preceded it.

    As the 4th of July draws closer the thought of Independence and Freedom comes more clearly into the public consciousness.

    Those Two Words,

    “Independence, Freedom”

    I know they mean different things to different people. Isn’t that cool?! What they mean you are not what they mean to me. As individuals in 2019 and beyond are so blessed we even have the ability to choose what “words” mean to US personally. Amazing, isn’t it?!

    This is how Blessed we are and I’m truly blessed to be able to help others with inflammation based pain!

    Helping one person might not change the whole world, but it could change the world for one person. I thrive in this belief system. In fact I truly believe it is the only way I can can change the world! That is one person at a time.

    I am learning my World is simply a reflection of how I choose to react to my personal existence/beliefs. When I quit judging what I think will happen next, it opens up possibilities I would never have thought. This is where I have found the Magic meets the road I have called my life.

    I am learning that to Love All Requires an Understanding that: Individual opinions are that Individuals. If I am truly Free and Independent, I am able to stay uninfected by the good opinions of others.

    This is also how I am being taught that I can Love Unconditionally.
