Not getting kissed by death’s sweetened lips
Shall I assume you’re not posting anymore? What’s the haps?
–Gary
Various things have happened to make blogging a very low priority for me. A chronic illness flared up, the summer was too nice, I felt bored with the site, felt that the time spent versus pages viewed wasn’t high enough and most of all… the dog ate my keyboard.
But I’m still alive and kicking and, ideally, will be going through my folder of post ideas. While I might not have been writing much I have been building up things to share.

Hello,
Just found your site, reading it has made me aware of the spoiled brat I am… Hope you are warm, full, and getting well… feel free to contact me..

Glad to know you are alive and kicking. I just tried subscribing via RSS feed to find out when you post again. That involved google reader or a google homepage and I do not use either one. You might not post much, but when you do, always worth reading. Take care.

Scott,
You’re probably not a spoiled brat, you’re probably just average. It’s when you see the extreme ends of net wealth that you realize you’re not there.
In years past when I had an average income I felt stinking rich because I kept my living expenses so low that I’d minimally have $500 a month to spare–and sometimes more. This all went to finance an education that I’m not using in a field that’s pretty darn dry in these parts.

Mary,
You can also use a RSS reader, assuming you have your own computer, as installed software. I have a fairly simple one and it seems to work out nicely.

April, I think your site is great. I’m living in a 10′ long travel trailer that I found in a farmer’s field, which he then offered to me for free if I’d haul it away. It’s a 1965 Scotty. I hope you continue your blog - and hope you get some income soon.

Hi, April. Thanks for your work on this site. I’m thinking about following in your tire tracks soon myself, perhaps summer 2008. I really enjoy reading your experiences on the road.
By the way, I use the Firefox browser (www.mozilla.org), which has an RSS reader called Live Bookmarks that’s very easy to use and requires no extra installations. I easily subscribe to this blog by clicking Bookmarks –> Subscribe to This Page. (Any blog that has an RSS feed will give you the Subscribe to This Page option when you click on Bookmarks in Firefox.)
Thanks again and I hope you continue well and happily busy.

Jim,
Nice score on the trailer. I love the old ones like that, especially the aluminum skinned ones. With a good polish they’re amazing.
