    My Path to (No)Madness!

    My current campsite at the base of Blanca Peak in southern Colorado. This was taken on the evening of Sept 13th looking southwest towards Alamosa.  ISO 6400, 10mm, 20 seconds, f3.5. The bright object to the right is the Moon.  Mars is along the left edge.  That cloud in the middle [just above my...

    Hey, Texas ... It's doing good so far.  It had a lot of miles on it when I bought it [145K], but it's performed better than I and some others expected.  I get between 7 and 12 miles a gallon while towing.  As high as 27 MPG when not.  I've logged about 6000 miles on the trailer and TV since...

    Hey, Texas ... She has chosen, wisely in my humble opinion, to go back to school and get a teaching credential.  I dropped her off in Greeley [at her mom's] a little over two weeks ago.  The dogs went "home" too.  So, I am, except for those I have been meeting along the way, alone.  :D db ~

    Hey, 'motoman  :) Here's the link to the vid that shows set up of one pod.  The other pod is identical: Pod Setup This was the first setup.  It'd just finished building the walls.  I was so disorganized and had to go get stuff to put it together, so, t's 11 minutes per side in this video. ...

    Well, alrighty then ... 'nuther update.  I'm at a small pull out site on CR 48 in Leadville, CO.  FINALLY!  A campsite with good data access!   4 bars of Verizon 4G give or take depending on where I am in the campsite.  I've experienced more than 10Mb per second DL ... not sure about upload yet...

    Just a quick update ... not linking to the videos, but if you've got bandwidth, they are easy to find. :) We're still in the north Idaho area for a few more days, then heading south and, hopefully, to better data access.  It's been non-existent here.  We can get good cell connection, 4 bars of...

    We'll be heading back up to The Meadows in about an hour.  It's a beautiful place along the Little North Fork of the Coeur D'Alene river, set among pine trees and tall tall grass, peppered with a myriad of wild flowers and herbs.  All free, National Forest land, no reservations, no cell service...

    Hmmm ... interesting.  I'm not sure I follow?  I think that there are some debts that MUST be entered into just because of the magnitude of the cost involved.  But, at this point in my life, I wonder if I really need the things that require that sort of commitment ... ?  Dunno.  No matter, I am...
