Since I left Coeur d’Alene in September, I’ve slept in over 90 different places. On the first night of the trip, Keith Jones and I slept in City Park in Davenport, Washington and were drenched by the sprinkler system in the middle of the night. Murray, Jenny and I slept in Dave and Libby Christian’s gorgeous geodesic… Continue reading On living in a hostel…

I usually walk by homeless people and others who are on the street asking for money. Sometimes I don’t want to take the time to dig into my wallet.

If a doctor lied to us, the word would spread and s/he would have a hard time working in that community.… Continue reading Politicians as Liars
At least I was wrapped in a warm blanket. I got a sinus infection (somehow!) and have been camped in a Travelodge in Fort Bragg, CA since Tuesday afternoon.
