Bath house, South Monticello Area, Elephant Butte Lake State Park, Elephant Butte NM, April 18, 2009
My new photo gallery
This picture of the bath house here at South Monticello I took yesterday finally got me energized enough to work on setting up a photo gallery of my favorite pictures, something I've wanted to do for a long time now. It's still very much a work in progress but go have a look.
The bottom line
...if you’re young, dear God, don’t try to live the way your parents did. You don’t need three bedrooms, although a roof is nice. Get the hell outa Dodge and stir things up. Leave! Adapt! Believe in yourself! Have fun! The bottom line is, do I have shelter and enough to eat. Everything else is optional. EVERYTHING! There are no rules!!! Just keep it simple: get that first bit down, no matter how, and you can get creative with the rest.
