Oliver Lee Memorial State Park, Alamogordo NM, January 18, 2008
It's gone
My Verizon BroadbandAccess service that is, the service I so enjoyed here last year. This is being written later, Friday actually, during a rare moment when access suddenly appeared out of the ether.
This could be a problem. I have some work I want to do updating this site. And more importantly I have some banking and bill paying that need to get done in the next few days. I may have to move on. i hope not - this is a nice park and I'd like to drop anchor here for a while. I've been on the move since I left Twiltley Branch Campground, Collinsville MS way back on December 15th and I need a break. Besides, New Mexico was my destination for the winter and here I am!

Site 7 - Oliver Lee Memorial State Park, Alamogordo NM
- Verizon cell phone service - good signal
- Verizon EVDO service - very good signal and access speed ( I have to qualify this - during my January 2008 visit the signal and access speed was excellent - in January 2009 it was practically non-existent during the day and slow at night with unpredictable short periods of excellent access)

Do We Really Mean What We Say
There are a lot of things that make me wonder whether we ever look ourselves straight in the face and really mean what we say when we are patting ourselves on the back.
