Good-Bye To Summer and BABR!

So, summer is over... I hate to see it gone.  Our bags are packed.  Tomorrow we get on the bus to head back to Knoxville, and from there a big question mark.  We dont know what is in store after summer.  This summer has had such purpose, such focus.  Our life after BABR is nothing but a question mark.  Not that I have minded... living each day focusing on the campers that has been awesome.  Now though, it is back to the "real" world so to speak.

In the morning we get on the bus to start our over 36 hr (not counting layovers) trip home.  Or at least, that was how long the trip here took... After staying put most of 2 months, it is going to be good to stretch these wings and start moving again.  Wonder where the road will take us next?

Free Bricks!

Jo and I were coming home from work today when we saw them.  Piles and piles of old bricks.  Most were of Gallup Brick make, most likely came up the Santa Fe Railroad back in the day.  We asked the foreman at the site what they were going to do with them.  He said, "Pay to have them haled off.  Take as much as you can.  The more you take the less we pay."  So we filled up the car, drove home, unloaded them, and returned again. In all we took 2 and 1/2 car loads of bricks.  Enough to line the garden with real Victorian era bricks....  Awesome!
