Back on the farm in Summer

I trailered a towable man lift (bucket lift) from Georgia to New York. The thing that made it eventful is that I had to drive my truck. My 2017 Chevy 3500 HD service truck (with only 31k miles) is not my Tesla. I have grown very accustomed to the Tesla self-driving, navigation and general hi-tech luxury. The truck, although I am very fond of my truck, is stressful and expensive to drive compared to the Tesla. Being on the farm alone has been an eye opener. I had forgotten how quiet and in-nature this place is. Very occasionaly a car or plane comes by and disrupts the void, but only occasionally. It has been very reflective. It is the first time I have been up here from Georgia without a specific date I must be back for... or so it seems. "All of humanity’s problems stem from man’s inability to sit quietly in a room alone."-- Blaise Pasacal mid 1600s. I guess I am working on humanity's problems. It can take a lot out of you. I feel good about some of the pics I ha...

Here is a tune that you don't need to know the words. If your your world is feeling big or small it will help re-calibrate. English: I believe Adam and Eva woke up in the morning Their friend, Helios, was proud of his work Heat will be during all week Delphi's oracle watched the weather Heaven dwarf - winged hummingbird Loved to drink dew in the dawn Zebras, centaur, wolves and tigers Myths seethe like rock river I believe in Jesus Christ, I believe in Gautama Buddha I believe in prophet Muhammad, I believe in Krishna, believe in Garuda I believe in Jesus Christ, I believe in Gautama Buddha I believe in Jah, believe in Jah, believe in Jah and will believe Lame volcano kindles a fire Thor needs a forge hummer The Great Creator keeps its palm Over map of life, over place where will be a town.

North Georgia

Angie and I went for a hike that turned into more of a drive than a hike. We hiked a bit. We drove much more. The Honda hasn't been out for a romp like this in a year. It was time. After we got back, the fingerprints of black fuel residue on the back of the car reminded me that the car needs to go. And the car goes. It can handle the mountain roads better than the motorcycles it seems. It was fun, but it seems more dangerous than the airplane. I am not complacent on either one. I fret about safety. From the top of the highest mountain in Georgia I took the picture of Blairsville Airport. I have flown in there previously. Instinctual, I knew where it was. I got the chance to visit the overlook at Tallulah Gorge. The last time I was there was 35 years ago. I stopped there when I rode my motorcycle from Ohio to Florida when I was in School in Columbus Ohio. It took me three days, rain, camping out, experience building and all that. I said I would be back, and guess what? I got back....
