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.

Was Love Then
Was love then like a bag of assorted sweets passed around from which one might choose more than once? Some might sting the tongue, some invoke night perfume. Some had centers as bitter as gall, some blended honey and poison, some were quickly swallowed. And among the common bull's-eyes and peppermints a few rare ones; one or two with deadly needles at the heart, another that brought calm and gentle pleasure. Were his fingers closing on that one?
