Punctured Eternabond taped seam, July 30, 2009
A puncture is found
Finally; a dry day and the time to go leak hunting. And what do I find? A puncture in the Etrnabond taped seam right above the overcab leak damage. Hallelujah - I found the leak! It appears a tree limb has punctured the tape. When I pressed the spot I found water under the tape. It didn't take long to add a patch to this spot. Now to await the next storm - coming soon...
Night camp
On my property off Less Traveled Road - The Home Place, Red Rock, East Chatham NY
- 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

Words Get in the Way
Research shows that language suppresses visual memory, This is called verbal overshadowing and is a well-established phenomenon .... For example, in one study people watched a short videotape of a bank robbery, then spent twenty minutes doing something unrelated. Then one group spent five minutes writing down everything they could remember about the bank robber's face, while the other group did an unrelated task.
