A mouse-accessible mailbox! I bet this house has a Cheese-of-the-Month subscription.

Day 97




Thanks to Paul for arranging my stay with Owen, and thanks to Owen for being such a great host! After a really hot and humid day, I couldn't have asked for anything more: cold drinks, shower and laundry, great food cooked on the grill, and a really sweet little dog occasionally coming over to say hi.

Morrie and John

July 1st, 2010



They stopped to give me a half gallon of V8 Splash and a lucky dollar, and Morrie really wanted to give me his camera tripod as well, but I didn't have room for it. He also insisted that I be in the picture with them. And, finally, you may be interested to know that they once helped a group of Hare Krishnas push an organ two miles up a mountain in Idaho.
