dont die hungry..die one of three ways...taking a dump cause you ate to much,die puking cause you ate something bad or die with a gunshot to the back from a 20 year old jealous husband
All I can say I'm glad it is you an not me out there in that GOD forsaken land.I have lived that life by necessity an I can truly say being on the grid is the best of life.I have personally enjoyed watching you build that oasis for what few critters there are left in that area.Marty Robbins has a song that makes me think ofyou http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsPKrw_TJ2U&playnext=1&list=PL6F3A0819B8BB8532
Just thought I'd say thanks for the tour! Thanks. After we left you, we went to Mt. McKenna and visited for a bit there. While we were gone...wait for it...it rained at Willow Mtn. I know 20% chance and I scoffed. Anyway, we got a whoppin' .45 and the road was running with "gold". Wish we had our catchment up. Sorry to see by the end numbers that you did not get any. We saw lightning out that way, but I guess it was too far west. Thanks again for the visit. I'm on the lookout for that grass fed steak.
I think we are awfully lucky that most people keep working at those jobs they don't like. Not sure there would be enough people to do everything that needs to be done if people only worked at what they like to do.
Reading "The Holstee Manifesto" is so true... It is how you perceive it and how you change your actions... Its about understanding your mind and changing what you want to...
had not read the "The Holstee Manifesto" before, did not know it existed, liked all its content and words, thank yu John . It is my phylosophy also, but unfortunately i m a poor guy $$$$, in not excelent health and need to wait still two years to do what i want there in yur same areas, the greater Big Bend National Park and vincinities, which i love also.
Very nice. I went to their website and checked out their products. Will definitely be buying some stuff from them, especially the bike chain cleaner and lube. They're doing it right. The Manifesto pretty well sums it up. Thanks for the link, John.
Enjoy Every Sandwich.
