The Beginning....

The Beginning....
When William Least Heat-Moon toured the country many years ago, his steed, if you will, was a van that he named Ghost Dancing. His journey of America was 13,000 miles. His book is Blue Highways, A Journey Into America. My steed will be a Subaru WRX (traded for an XV Crosstrek). My travels will be, what in the past were called, the blue highways of Virginia. Years ago, maps showed secondary roads in blue. Yes, the ones less traveled.

Don't Set Yourself on Fire to Keep Others Warm......

"Don't set yourself on fire to keep others warm."




I think many of us can benefit by applying this to our lives. No, I didn't dream this up. This is a signature of a fellow on the fountainpennetwork forum. Thanks to him.

  1. Build a man a fire and keep him warm for a day. Set a man on fire and keep him warm for the rest of his life.

      A person who chops their own wood is twice warmed.
