I am not a very good tourist. Mostly I just walk around and look at stuff that doesn’t cost anything to look at. It is really good exercise so the McDonald’s visits haven’t taken too much of a toll yet. I have been in Georgia for a month now and its time to pull up stakes and walk around somewhere…
Rainy Night In Georgia
Except for a couple of rainy hours in Cyprus, I couldn’t ask for better weather. Cool nights and warm sunny days. Its a good thing because Tbilisi is a good walking around town. It has been great setting out in the morning and returning in the evening with 15 to 20 more miles on my poor shoes in between and…
Georgia On My Mind
Last year was pretty easy when it came to finding out how to spend my winter. I just set the AirBnB app to filter on cheap houses all to myself and boom, plenty showed up. This year it was slim pickings. I have been storing up my credit card earned frequent flyer miles over the years because of covid and…
The Cowboy Rides Away
The main reason I drove all the way to Texas was for a wedding. A friend of mine from Seattle moved down there last year. Most people just move out of Seattle because it kind of sucks right now and isn’t worth the hassle. He had the added motive of meeting a woman from Texas and deciding to marry her. …
Good As I Once Was
I usually stay on the property as far into the fall as I can. Mostly because I dont have anywhere else I need to be. This year I did, a wedding in Dallas,Tx. Google says it’s a 5 day drive if I don’t push it, i had 21 days so i could have made it riding the brakes. The weather…
Somebody’s Watching Me
As the end of the season was rapidly approaching. I had to make a run to the big box home improvement store to get some items for closing up the camp. For me, one of the highlights of these trips is to settle in on the patio furniture on display. I find it to be a good way to get…
Amarillo By Morning
After a few last minute chores, I locked up one last time and headed out. There is no big hurry to get where I am going but I do want to enjoy the last few days of fall weather. Winter is coming and the leaves are getting heavy with color. We didn’t get much fall foliage this year so I…
But You Cant Stay Here
The season has come to an end. I have done as much as I can. Eeerttt!!!! (record scratch) That is a big ol’ lie. There is plenty to do, I am just being lazy. Conveniently, the weatherman is saying winter is brewing. Once the road gets wet, I have to hike the mile in and out with whatever I decided…
Just Bricks in the wall
Last month was a winner in that I hit a milestone on making my property more than a junk yard with a view. The concrete for the cabin footer was poured. One win is not a streak so I decided to go for 2 and build the basement walls this year. I had just finished multiple trips to get all…
The Folly Of Man
It seems rare these days that the word literally is used correctly so in my attempt to save the English language, here you go….I am happy to say that I literally have nowhere to go but up from here. I mentioned in my previous post the inspector gave me the go ahead to pour the cabin footing. A short lived…
