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.

Stay What You Always Were
My sisters have been listening to me all my life and vice versa, and there's a limit to how interesting we find each other. Which is one of the reasons, surely -- this is exactly the kind of thought that didn't come up in conversation -- that it is at least as stifling as it is comforting to be with family. It doesn't allow its members to experiment with themselves. The penalty for being loyally accepted for the whole of your life is that you must stay what you always were.
