Drycamped

There's no room at the inn. It's Festival of the Cranes season. Thanks to a leaky radiator I managed to wrangle a prime spot from Billy to boondock out in the bushes behind the shed for the duration.

What I've Learned

Such delicate goods as justice, love, honor and courtesy, and indeed all the things we care for, are valid everywhere but they are variously molded and often differently handled and sometimes nearly unrecognizable if you meet them in a foreign land, and the art of learning fundamental common values is perhaps the greatest gain of travel to those who wish to live at ease with their fellows.

The Middle of Everywhere, Freya Stark quoted by Mary Pipher, pg 339
