Less Traveled

My weather-reporter in Parowan, Utah said they had 40 inches of snow in Monticello the other day. He thot it could be a while b4 it melts.

So, I'm piddling my way northward enjoying the off-road experience south of Oracle, Arizona.

All the Friggin' GEAR!




At this time of year altitude has an impact. While it's blisteringly hot in Tucson, the nearby mountains sport a mantle of snow deposited during the night.

  1. Nice camp spot. I've feeling a case of hitch itch coming on.

    1. Well, that's easier to solve than some of the others you might've contracted.

  2. It's back to being overcast, windy, and not very warm in Tucson.

    I'm amazed how much you can haul in your Sammy.

    1. In my youth I, like many others, hitch-hiked around the country. One day I got a ride from a guy who owned a Mayflower moving van. He offered me a job and over the next several weeks I learned how to pack. The truck broke down and after three days of sleeping on the pavement next to it, I moved on. But the learning stuck.
