Ok, let's get this show on the road
It's been an interesting summer and a warm fall in Red Rock but winter looms ahead and it's time to get this ol' RV to a warmer spot on the globe.
The plan was to get my affairs in order and start my fall migration earlier this year. A mid October departure seemed about right. November starts to get a bit chilly in Red Rock and I thought I might skip a bit of that nonsense this year. And I would have but things didn't go quite to plan and, well, here it is mid November again. Ah well, off we go...
Guess I'll wander southward until the spirit sends me west. I have no specific goals in mind for this winter much beyond spending time in New Mexico messing with my photography and leatherworking interests that got rather neglected this summer.

Life is to be Lived, Not Controlled
No indeed, the world is just as concrete, ornery, vile and sublimely wonderful as before, only now I better understand my relation to it and it to me. I lived a public life and attempted to function under the assumption that the world was solid and all the relationships therein. Now I know men are different and that all life is divided and that only in division is there true health. Hence again I have stayed in my hole, because up above there's an increasing passion to make men conform to a pattern.
.... Whence all this passion toward conformity anyway? - diversity is the word. Let man keep his many parts and you'll have no tyrant states. Why, if they follow this conformity business they'll end up by forcing me, an invisible man, to become white, which is not a color but the lack of one. Must I strive toward colorlessness? But seriously, and without snobbery, think of what the world would lose if that were to happen. .....Life is to be lived, not controlled; and humanity is won by continuing to play in the face of certain defeat.
