I had planned to spend a nite in Wells, Nevada to check out the brothels there, but after yesterday I am so sore it wouldn’t be much fun. (So, the new plan is to head for home.)
Well, today I am back to Burger King burgers.

Well, I am on the road again. Tis amazing how much difference ten months can make. When I headed down this road last I had two jobs and much of what I wanted. Now I am unemployed and will probably lose everything within a year.
Even more severe than that, last year my dad was in good health and now I am returning to evaluate how much damage was caused by the stroke he suffered a couple weeks ago.
We don’t realize how fragile our condition is when all is well, but we are never far from falling.
