http://www.mps2343.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 8, 2014. Five Days on Celebrity Infinity. December 4, Embarcation. I haven’t referred to it in my blog posts, but I’ve read Michael Pollen’s books over the last several months. I’m sold on his explanation of:. Rule #1: Eat food. [Don’t consume any food that your grandmother wouldn’t recognize - for example, processed foods]. Rule #2: Not too much. Rule #3: Mostly plants. Now, how simple is that? I’m better off not taking that first bite. We’ll see how it goes onboard. First thing this mo...

Butterflies and Heart Songs: November 2014
http://www.mps2343.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 29, 2014. Evening Before "Ironman Cozumel" Day. Logo for Ironman Cozumel. Both "kids" are strong swimmers; however, they don’t consider themselves at the top of their respective categories, having a substantially energetic style with endurance to spare. I've been watching them swim together these last few days - their stroke-style is very similar and they look beautiful in the water (mom speaking! 189; hours. The end of the bike segment will be right in the most. Deck outside living an...

Wahnfried der Nomad: Vince's Birthday
http://newmexnomad.blogspot.com/2016/05/vinces-birthday.html
The Smith and Herrmann Expedition. Wednesday, May 4, 2016. In Albuquerque we came together to celebrate Vince's 77th birthday which is April 15th. An unrepentant Luddite, I've been patient with his requests to look stuff up online, but when he wanted to know how to corn beef, I decided it was time. I was lucky and found a Dell latitude E6410, in its day the fastest laptop on the market, at NAU surplus. We share the opinion that a car is a tool, not an ego extension. He settled for a piece of cake. Found ...

The Smith and Herrmann Expedition. Monday, December 19, 2016. Art by Audrey - Benson, Arizona. If you're on Interstate 10 between Wilcox and Tuscon, you won't want to miss Audrey the Artist. Her home is overflowing with her creations, including a pregnant transexual. Responding to an add for a FULL BODY MASSAGE, it was almost dark as I drove down the winding driveway between the pink corinthian columns each topped with a gargoyle or bust. Fully functional. Only $130.00. December 24, 2016 at 9:51 AM.

The Smith and Herrmann Expedition. Wednesday, November 30, 2016. Smith's lookin' pretty sleek these days, dontchyuh tink? Links to this post. Sunday, November 27, 2016. This surfaced while piddling through the hard drive. It was (originally) in the window in Beatty, Nevada.was that May? Might have been April. Still need to sow those Calif poppy seeds in the front 40, then. Begin packing. Should be camped, instead of "housed," by tomorrow afternoon. Still, it's always tough leaving the Michellles. It's a ...

Wahnfried der Nomad: June 2016
http://newmexnomad.blogspot.com/2016_06_01_archive.html
The Smith and Herrmann Expedition. Monday, June 27, 2016. Dolores. A name to inspire memories. The grocery has Vigo brand rolled anchovies with capers; Midnight Moon goat gouda; an assortment of chevres and bries; a cold case stocked with a variety of made-in-the-store quiches, baked sirloin roast; lasagna and other delights. The meat case looks fresh enough to eat raw and there's Ducktrap (wildcaught in Maine) Herring in wine and/or cream sauce and the WSJ and the New York Times! And open, fast wifi!

Wahnfried der Nomad: October 2016
http://newmexnomad.blogspot.com/2016_10_01_archive.html
The Smith and Herrmann Expedition. Friday, October 28, 2016. Up in the forest we trundled about. The large stump on the upper right was nearly as wide as the car. There were several small groves, but we never found any approaching the size of those in the northern section. Still, Smith was duly impressed. The road into Wishon campground continues out the back and, we were told, goes quite a ways. We only went about half a mile. Links to this post. Tuesday, October 18, 2016. By the time I got to Socorro (...
