Sorry for the dearth of updates yesterday.
Sorry for the dearth of updates yesterday. (I know, you’re terribly
heartbroken.) Mobitex coverage through the desert is almost entirely
absent (we were without GSM for pretty much of the way, too).
More nice desert photos today. The weather was mild, too, which
allowed us to spare the AC a bit. Saw some cows—hundreds, in
fact—in cramped paddocks outside El Paso. (These were definitely
not “happy California cows”.)
A great deal of today’s eleven and a half hours (driving, sitting in
traffic, waiting for “fast” food) served to remind that there are still
millions of completely uninhabited acres in this country. (This is not
by any means to say we should fire up the drills in Seward’s Folly.
Compared to the ANWR, this region is definitely the
ass-end of space.)
PS: To the other guy named Dan at the Einstein Bros. Bagels east of
Phoenix, who clearly ordered some kind of egg-on-a-bagel thing, let me
just say that I’m sorry, and that I didn’t know what I had done until
we were back on I-10.
