Adam Zamora commented on THE GRAND SWEEPING CONCLUSION: And A Less-Than-Grand Map of My Final Route

I am a year late it appears in wishing you well, but I'm glad your son is doing okay.

Also I hope your arm is still attached... geez. Ouch!

Nice to hear from you again, Adam. I think I laughed out loud for at least a minute after reading your comment--not because you lost your life savings on a B.I.E. degree, but because it was just plain funny.

I wish I would have read this entry before spending all that money on my Bicycle Institute of Engineering degree...

True. Imagine my embarrassment if somebody had seen me sleeping in a tent with mis-matched duct tape on one of the poles.

Duct tape was going to be our suggestion. Impressive that you have matching red.

Hi Steve,
I DEFINITELY would include Dr. Seuss trees. I must admit, though, that I didn't know what a Monkey Puzzle was, but I Googled it and, yup, it's a tree too.

I sure appreciate you taking the time while on your own European tour to have a look at my journal. I know it takes plenty of work just to keep up with one's own journal, much less leave comments on other people's journals too. Again, thank you.

I didn't know it at the time, but the entire town of Nipton was bought by a guy who owns a marijuana-growing company. I did notice it had sort of a hippy vibe to it. And its setting in that valley is so awesome.

I never tire of them either.

I especially enjoyed this entry. We drove across the Reserve on our way from Death Valley to Joshua Tree, and stopped at Nipton. I’ve always wanted to go back and bike there.

Just my kind of country. I never tire of views like this.

If you include Dr Suess trees, then these are definitely trees. So is the Monkey Puzzle.

Your memory is probably OK. Likely you didn't see it because it was my first one after "Crexit." It just might be the weirdest one of all.

I was waiting for the police to tell me to go back inside, but they never did. The situation began as a domestic disturbance--lots of yelling and swearing from both the man and the woman--and then, thanks to my eavesdropping skills, I was able to ascertain that (SURPRISE) the black SUV was a stolen vehicle. I had enough self-restraint to not take pictures of the the hand-cuffed suspect in the scene that followed.

Hooray! Another Garceau reminiscence. Either I never red this one, or my memory is even worse than I was aware of.
