Dawn, Hidden Valley RV Park, Tijeras NM, April 24, 2010
Bah! - I was out too early this morning and besides, I found myself disconcerted by the trees and came back with just a few pictures - all lousy. I haven't had to figure trees into my picture taking for a long time.
What a mess this website is
You've likely noticed I've been messing around with the design of this site the last few days. As my photography has come along I've been trying to think up ways to integrate more of it in this site and I was finally got the gumption to tackle what I knew would be a big project. Yea gads - I knew it would be a big undertaking to figure a way forward and I was right. Everywhere I look I find something I'm unhappy with and a technical issue to resolve. I think I have the bones in place now, finally - most of them at least - and can begin to flesh out the details and maybe, finally, begin to integrate more pictures into the pages.

Mix With the World
I am convinced our own happiness requires that we should continue to mix with the world, and to keep pace with it. . . . I can speak from experience on the subject. From 1793 to 1797, I remained closely at home, saw none but those who came there, and at length became very sensible of the ill effect it had upon my mind, and of its direct and irresistible tendency to render me unfit for society, and uneasy when necessarily engaged in it. I felt enough of the effect of withdrawing from the world then to see that it led to an anti-social and misanthropic state of mind, which severely punishes him who gives in to it; and it will be a lesson I never shall forget as to myself.
