This picture, posted to my Instagram feed (jhcoxon) got one response, a perfect "Swim to America and freeze your ass off" from Jack.
Moving day
Today was moving day. My allowed three weeks at Paseo del Rio expired and I needed to leave the park for a week and not feeling like going far I moved downstream 20 miles to the riverside primitive camping at Caballo Lake State Park. I think I might stay here a while - this is a nice spot.

The Value of Time
Time is the most valuable and finite commodity that any living thing has. Think about it, everything – you, me, people, plants, animals, even the Earth itself – has a limited and set amount of time. From the moment we come into existence, we begin an inevitable march to a final end. Even the age of our solar system exists in but a minute of time within the context of the history of the universe. The average human lifespan does not even register on that clock. With that said, in many ways, time is the very definition of life itself.
