After the Blow, Oliver Lee Memorial State Park, Alamogordo NM, November 21, 2011
A bit of a blow
We had a bit of a blow here yesterday. A sandstorm brownout and brief shower that then washed the dust off and cleared the air. Beautiful.

- Verizon cell phone service - good signal
- Verizon EVDO service - very good signal and access speed ( I have to qualify this - during my January 2008 visit the signal and access speed was excellent - in January 2009 it was practically non-existent during the day and slow at night with unpredictable short periods of excellent access)

First Find What's Truly Significant
Zen Students and photographers have much in common. Both are acutely visionary, concerned with the practicalities of light and darkness, perception and clarity. The pursuit of either of these practices demands that those involved first find what's truly significant in their lives before they can ever hope to turn this significance into something that can be seen by others.
