Punctured Eternabond taped seam, July 30, 2009
A puncture is found
Finally; a dry day and the time to go leak hunting. And what do I find? A puncture in the Etrnabond taped seam right above the overcab leak damage. Hallelujah - I found the leak! It appears a tree limb has punctured the tape. When I pressed the spot I found water under the tape. It didn't take long to add a patch to this spot. Now to await the next storm - coming soon...
Night camp
On my property off Less Traveled Road - The Home Place, Red Rock, East Chatham NY
- I used to camp in a few locations on what little I had left of the family farm
- In the driveway by the house
- Across the road where the barn once stood
- On the 20 acre piece off Less Traveled Road
- Now, with the kind support of the friends who now own the place, I camp across the road where the barn once stood.
- Verizon cell phone service - Terrible, barely usable with an amplifier
- Verizon EVDO service - Terrible, barely usable with an amplifier
- Find other references to Home Place

To Remember Safely
The trick is not to forget, but to remember safely. Oh no, I know I cannot walk on the old pathways - use the old patterns to cut new dresses - but I must not forget them, or the experiences that gave rise to them. I am what I am, with the views I have, with the desires and skills and talents that I may possess, because of what I have been. I know what I know because I have lived what I have lived. To have any sort of wisdom without paying for the acquisition of it is not possible.
