Oct 7 All Caught Up

Here's some pix (all clickable to make bigger). This first one is Picacho Peak itself, seen over the compound wall.
Here's a palo verde tree at dawn, next to the frontage road. The train tracks are just beyond the frontage road.

Here's my rig with Picacho Peak in the background.
And here's my setup at Akela Flats NM. The store is beyond the fireworks sign. This is pointing more or less east.
And here I am, my western view.

Have gotten caught up on the internet stuff. Over 200 emails and a month's worth of posts to the blog. Hope everybody's happy now.

I'm not. Happy, that is. I think I'm going to tell Alfred on Friday that I just don't want to do this kind of work, full or part-time. It occurred to me that I had seen a sign in Bookman's Used Bookstore that they're always looking for workers. Bet I could get a job there -- ya think?

I fired off my resume to apply for the RV park job in Yuma. Promptly got a "no such mailbox" reply from AOL. Drat.

Am sitting in the Apache Homelands Casino/Cafe. Had a nice meatloaf dinner w/baked potato and iced tea. Called from the pay phone at Walmart and got my old cellphone reactivated -- took about 2 minutes -- and I got my quarter back, so the call was free. As soon as the transformer gets here, I'll ship the blackberry back, and that freight is free, too, so I just have to hand the box to the UPS guy.
