Prickly pear, Oliver Lee Memorial State Park, Alamogordo NM, January 8, 2009
Sheesh indeed
It looks like we're only allowed decent access here on the weekends. My guess is there is some major equipment overhaul work going on in Verizon's world.
Want to wager Broadband Access comes up mid morning tomorrow, like it did last Friday?
Grumble.
Night camp
Site 7 - Oliver Lee Memorial State Park, Alamogordo NM
- Verizon cell phone service - good signal
- Verizon EVDO service - very good signal and access speed ( I have to qualify this - during my January 2008 visit the signal and access speed was excellent - in January 2009 it was practically non-existent during the day and slow at night with unpredictable short periods of excellent access)

Concentrated Space Intensifies Everything
A small, concentrated domestic space intensifies everything. It’s like the fire we live around—move it close together and the flame flares up, spread it apart and the fire goes out. We have always lived in small houses, but this one is the smallest and the best. Here I feel all my loose and wandering thoughts are gathered up and made whole. It is an antidote to a world of distractions. It is a world unto itself. It is almost more myself than I am.’
