Yikes!, Rockhound State Park, Deming, New Mexico, February 5, 2009
We do like hookups in the winter
For the electricity mainly. Electric heat is much pleasanter than propane. And propane can be a real headache to find sometimes. Not here, I know where to find propane in Deming but in general. Plus one has to break camp to go get the tank refilled. I only have a ten gallon tank on this rig and that's only enough to heat the rig for four or five nights in the 30 degree weather we are getting here.

Something Useful Can Be Artful
A life, I believe - lived well and openly - with a certain sort of careful attention to form and function - creates art - or, at the very least, inspires it. I believe that art is contained in the ordinary events, that the small things we see and hear and learn everyday provide opportunities to explore parts of ourselves or our society in a way that can actually produce art. Whether it is a story you leave behind or one you take with you, I believe that any given situation is rich with opportunities to participate in the creation of something useful that can also be artful.
