Enough already - can we move on?, San Antonio NM, April 21, 2010
That's it - enough traveling already
I'm back in Red Rock ready to settle in for the summer. Cell phone and internet access here is not available so Journal updates will be sporadic at best.
Night camp
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
