My new blog: Full Circle. I haven't even switched from the default MT template yet, so it's, um, not pretty. But it'll do for now. I'll have more time to fuss with it later this month. In the meantime, I...links & metaTamar2005-10-04T12:31:34-05:00here again

Back online, finally. Interesting how important it has become. Like partial blindness when you can't see online. But the cable modem guy came today and hooked us up, then we problem solved for a bit and got wireless. And now...life stuffTamar2005-10-02T16:49:37-05:00moving in

So we're here. Damian started school today. We have enough unpacked to cook, albeit in a still-primitive fashion. No internet access yet, and no long distance service on our home phone. Feels positively archaic. We fit our stuff into the...life stuffTamar2005-09-21T10:27:31-05:00trip wrap-up

Chicago was a challenge, as befits a big city. After miles of desert and forest and small cities and smaller towns, it required a shift in both sensibility and travel skills. First, it took us nearly two hours to drive...travelTamar2005-09-17T22:46:52-05:00sleep beckons

Yesterday: Driving through Wisconsin, rolling hills and so many grain silos. We passed gleaming silver trucks with round long bodies, filled with milk. We passed gas stations, small markets, all advertising cheese, or, rather, Cheese! Sometimes Cheese – Gas –...travelTamar2005-09-14T21:27:27-05:00The Twin Cities

Minneapolis and St. Paul. So different to be hosted, not on our own. Familial. Out on the road for a week, it felt like we were in a traveling bubble. Interacting with the people around us, yes, some, but not...travelTamar2005-09-12T21:47:42-05:00road dust, Mitchell to Minneapolis

When we got out of the car yesterday at the Badlands, the wind was hot and strong. So strong. It almost blew away my camera lens cap. All the way through South Dakota last night, the winds so strong, buffeting...travelTamar2005-09-11T22:43:02-05:00Black Hills, Badlands and lots of prairie

Friday, September 9 We're staying in a small two bedroom cabin set back in a meadow, against the trees. High ceilings. Pale wood floors and actual log walls. A clawfoot tub in the bathroom. Utter peace. Last night as we...travelTamar2005-09-10T23:19:01-05:00From Cheyenne to the Black Hills

Thursday, September 8, 2005: We generally buy lunch in the morning so we won't have to scramble later on. This morning (Thursday), we picked up sandwiches at the coffee shop attached to the Plains Hotel; the hotel clerk said it...travelTamar2005-09-10T22:07:45-05:00whisking through Colorado

Morning: Visited a small health food store south of Springdale, picked up lunch for the road. Springdale is an interesting town. Very much geared for the tourist trade, but with its own alternative flavor. No bible in the hotel room....travelTamar2005-09-05T22:26:24-05:00
