More Fun

This is a video that I did during one of my walks. The railroad plays a very important part in veggie growing process: the reason they are so fresh when they hit the market.

This is a quarter of a mile down the road from the video. Here I thought I was out in the middle of the desert. My first shock was to come upon a house (which I didn't take a picture of) and then this street sign. Imagine!

I mainly did this post to assure myself that I could upload video. The last time I tried, it didn't work. Maybe I'll get one of those little camcorders that the guys at Best Buy weren't too impressed with. Right now, both of my cameras do a fine job for what I want.

New Year 2011

Since it's a new year, I decided to resurrect this blog and use it sort of as my daily diary. Cabbagemama is more of a travelogue of on the road adventures. I'm hoping to use this one for my deep thoughts which have been really wild lately. I spent a quiet first day of the new year trying to keep warm. My hose froze during the night so I didn't have water for coffee. I ran over to the club house and filled my cup from their pot. The guys in there told me that I would have to make coffee for a month now: only if they hog tie me! I read and watched movies the rest of the day. Carman called and we talked for over an hour about the possibility of combining resources to travel together. It's tempting, but I know I'm just too independent and set in my ways. He'd have to give up too much to make it happen. Today I called my friend Norma to see if she wanted to go to lunch, but she had already had an early lunch. She was scrapping greeting cards. She's very talented and is trying to teach me. If only my fingers would cooperate. I walked over to Coyote Wash to the IGA and bought milk and some veggies. The sun felt good, but it's getting cold again. I guess unless I go to the South Pacific, I'm going to have to have some degree of winter. Oh rats!
