From a truck stop in Nebraska.

From a truck stop in Nebraska.

I am grateful to have met and connected with people in Southern Florida, Northwest Washington, New York City, and Southern California.  Wow.

I appreciate the connections, but wonder how deep we need to be connected to a few people where we are, where we live.

For now, I live wherever I am alive (on the road, visiting towns).
It is a peculiar, interesting, changing time.

From Portland to Salt Lake – June 25th Journal

Hello friends!

Today, driving past tons of open, dry, rocky fields

and narrow streams, I am reminded

by every irrigated sprinkler system.

I am reminded by every drop of sweat and every dry heave breathe,

that life comes from water

and heat is its companion…

so long as neither is domineering.

I enjoy the beauty of diversity,

but wonder why or how anything/anyone survives in the dessert.
