I'm off for the summer
My trek back to New York is over and I'm settling in here for the summer. I'll start posting here again when I leave Red Rock in the fall. See you down the road.
Night camp
The Home Place
- I used to camp in a few locations on what little I had left of the family farm
- In the driveway by the house
- Across the road where the barn once stood
- On the 20 acre piece off Less Traveled Road
- Now, with the kind support of the friends who now own the place, I camp across the road where the barn once stood.
- Verizon cell phone service - Terrible, barely usable with an amplifier
- Verizon EVDO service - Terrible, barely usable with an amplifier
- Find other references to Home Place
- List the nights I've camped here
- Check the weather here
People are Themselves
I hadn't realized before I wrote "Are You Somebody" that I for one need constantly to relearn a simple thing - that I do not understand other people as they understand themselves. Rob's reaction, and much more importantly, Nell's, made me understand that I am one person and other people are themselves, and not what I have decided they are.
