Camp And Sail Part 5: If You Go Where You Wish, What More Is There?
The winds were mild. Sometimes dropping to nothing. Occasionally picking up and sending my boat charging ahead. Not that I’m complaining that I had motive power, but I never got the hang of intermittent wind. I couldn’t completely relax when … Continue reading

Camp And Sail Part 4: Neither Boats Nor Curmudgeons Are Made To Stay In The Harbor
Note: I started today’s post with a photo of an gopher from this trip. That reminded me of a gopher story from a scamp/sail trip last year. Here’s a quote: “Try it ya’ little bastard.” I hissed. He didn’t back … Continue reading

Camp And Sail Part 3: Breakfast Of Champions / Lesbian Squirrels
I was at a generic National Forest Campsite. I wanted to “dispersed camp” which usually has me absolutely alone. But had wisely lowered my ambitions when the pack-up and drive out phase of the trip had gone into extra innings. … Continue reading

Camp And Sail Part 1: Don’t Quit
Absolutely everything went wrong. Cascading stupid shit hounded me for several weeks. I was (almost comically) derailed at every juncture. I soldiered on. Eventually, it all worked out. Is there no better summation of life? A couple weeks ago I … Continue reading

Happily Drunk In A Fabric Cage: Part 4.5: Thoughts About GPS Receivers
If you’re going to follow a route someone else mapped (like an adventure touring route) you’ll be using navigation software and a GPS. Paper maps are fading. For better or worse, we’ve all been thrust into the e-world. I’m very … Continue reading

Happily Drunk In A Fabric Cage: Part 4: Thoughts About The TWAT
I was happy. You might think this meant the conditions were great. Nope! They sucked. Happiness comes less from perfect weather than a mental framework of peace; at least that’s my theory. My gear helped. The new jacket kept me … Continue reading

Happily Drunk In A Fabric Cage: Part 3: A New Voice
I’m not saying I woke with a hangover; but I was a bit fuzzy. No worries. It was a good morning to sit on my ass brewing coffee and being lavishly unproductive. The weather report wasn’t great, so my plans … Continue reading

Motorcycle Camping: Happily Drunk In A Fabric Cage: Part 2.5: Shortwave Blues In The Dark
Having deployed a campsite that felt like a mansion it was time for the last lesson of the day. I don’t have to do Jack Shit if I don’t want to! Honey Badger, my dirtbike still perched on the trailer, … Continue reading

Motorcycle Camping: Happily Drunk In A Fabric Cage: Part 2: Operation Old Guy
My good and loyal homebuilt sailboat got shafted. Tragic! By the time I was able to go camping I’d run out of time to get the boat ready. Also the winds were predicted to be too calm. It takes less … Continue reading
