That is an unused photograph from my eight years of off grid hard-wall tenting. Positive had fairly just a few fantastic experiences from these years. I believe M&M and I have been camped an hour or so east of Silver Metropolis, NM, for this photograph.

Properly, I downloaded the following guide within the L. Ron Hubbard’s Earth sequence, ‘Black Genises. $7 for the e-book. Obtained dwelling and went to open it. The e-book is locked by DRM. Guano. My converter program couldn’t format it right into a readable format. Once more, guano. It could be good to tell a purchaser earlier than hand whether it is locked by DRM. Not the primary time this has occurred.
Seems to be like I’ll must get the paperback, $29. For a 30 12 months outdated sci-fi novel?! Eight extra to go. I’ll order the guide after I get again to Timberon, so I’ve a spot to obtain packages.

Bear in mind these books from Stieg Larsson? I checked out, The Lady With The Dragon Tattoo, when my library in SLC acquired some. I used to be in Lisbeth Salander’s nook just about from the beginning. Learn the second guide, however by no means learn the third one. Form of stunning for the reason that finish of the second guide definitely ended with a hook.

Final 12 months I noticed all three books at both a guide trade or thrift ship. Apart from the hook, I didn’t bear in mind something, so I bought to learn the story once more. And I bought to learn the third guide too. Easy pleasures.

That is the view out the again window at one the state parks I’ve been staying in.

This park has all the time had an issue with raccoons. They used to have a scattering of 4 metal trash bins with lids(!) grouped collectively in small picked fence areas. You most likely guessed that lids have been taken off in the course of the night time.
One time I used to be packing as much as go away, and located a raccoon within the mattress of the pickup. I noticed the way it bought up there by the scratches it left.

Previously three or 4 years when I didn’t do the parks, they put in these bear proof trash receptacles which are in Nationwide Forest campgrounds.
Jogged my memory of a brief story I uploaded just a few years in the past.

These two campers have been staying in a Nationwide Park. Whereas speaking with the ranger who was accountable for sustaining order within the campsites, he confirmed them how one can function the brand new rubbish cans. The advanced fashions had a rotating higher part and a particular door designed to maintain out hungry bears. One of many women requested the ranger whether or not the fortified cans have been working as meant. Not likely; we’re discovering appreciable overlap within the intelligence of the neatest bears and the dumbest campers.

A few of the coldest night time temps this winter, since I’ve been wintering within the parks. Timberon is almost 7,000’ and the parks are round 3,500’. That is low sufficient since I hook as much as energy.

The ball is in your court docket. Choose it up and go.

Simply take the following step.
