Arriving at Oliver Lee, January 18, 2008
Enough already
I've had enough traveling for now. I'm going to chill here at Oliver Lee for a while. Kick back with a good book. Clean the road grime off the rig. Maybe do a leather project or two. Start assessing the motorcycle rebuild project. Take a hike.
Night camp
Site 6 - 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)

Leaving Home
Leaving home is a kind of forgiveness, and when you get among strangers, you’re amazed at how decent they seem. Nobody smirks at you or gossips about you, nobody resents your successes or relishes your defeats. You get to start over, a sort of redemption.
