- Monday, April 27, 2009 - Valley of Fires BLM campground, Carrizozo NM
- Best laid plans and all that. It only took me about 50 miles today to alter my course east. On a whim I left I25 at San Antonio and headed east on US380 towards Roswell. And when I found myself fascinated while crossing the 5,000 year old Malpais Lava Flow I just had to stop for the night at the Valley of Fires Recreation Area.

It's time to start drifting toward a solution to the problem of where to make my Night Camps those nights so tomorrow I'm going up toValley of Fires Recreation Area in Carrizozo NM.

- Thursday, December 9, 2010 - Leasburg Dam State Park, Radium Springs NM
- As you can see last January there was some flow in the Rio Grande River. Now it's almost completely dry, with most of what is flowing diverted into the irrigation canal at the dam. My guess is the dam at the large Elephant Butte Reservoir is closed. I saw a recent picture on the web of the Rio Grande taken upstream near Taos where the river is flowing full tilt.

The river was full and green was spreading across the landscape. Image: Leasburg Dam, Rio Grande River, Leasburg Dam State Park, Radium Springs NM, April 21, 2008.
- Thursday, January 13, 2011 - Percha Dam State Park, Arrey NM
- No Percha Dam, no onions. No pecans. No cotton. No chili. No whatever. Not in the Rincon Valley. A little about Percha Dam swiped from the US Department of Agriculture, Bureau of Reclamation, Cultural Resources Program website...

- Sunday, January 16, 2011 - Bosque Birdwatchers RV Park, San Antonio NM
- When I left Percha Dam State Park this morning I had no intention of driving up to the Bosque today. I was headed up to Elephant Butte State Park, with a stop for groceries in Truth or Consequences on the way, to hang out there for a few days to finish my project refining this website before descending on the birds. But was a beautiful day, I missed my turnoff to the park and it was only another hour up the road to the Bosque... Backtracking is a waste of gas, right?

- Two issues briefly. One. My new iPad is one slippery beast to handle. None of the many available covers and cases designed to solve that problem please me. I finally came up with a design that works for me a couple weeks back (more on that another time). Two, I still needed a case to serve as a slip case around the house and as a carry case to go wandering off to the coffee shop. I finally worked that issue out yesterday.

- My new iPad is one slippery beast to handle and none of the available covers and cases pleased me so as usual I set off on my own course to try and solve this little problem. It took a while to isolate the issues and home in on my solution. Image: Braided Leather iPad Grip.

Growing up... it never stops
I am enjoying finally growing up, but guess what, boys and girls? It NEVER STOPS!!! For the record, there is no point where everything is "solved" and fine and enlightened and fixed in perpetual harmony and light. Oh, for a while, certainly. For years at a time, even. But soon you reach the next divide, hoho, and then it's grow or die a living death. The lucky ones keep struggling and discovering, challenging themselves, no matter how old they are. Don't believe anything else. NONE OF THIS IS LIKE IT SEEMS.
