Now, THAT was a good day
Wow – that was fun. Up early to run dogs and then off to the southwestern corner of NH, where the cacti and mesas frolic (or not). First stop was at Callahan & Co. Booksellers to sell some dupe/no longer needed sporting books. Hard to imagine, but I came out of Mr. Callahan’s barn upside down (I spent more than he paid me).

From there to the Toadstool in Peterborough to see the Noted Nature Writer do a talk and book signing event. I got there early, so first I had some pie for breakfast:

And did a little looking around:

The talk was wonderful – from there the posse went to Deering where I helped put new bracelets on a gos, much hawking was talked and I met more interesting people. Back home, another dog run – they’re all fast asleep now – and that’s it for me!
Overland sidehack
Continuing our very infrequent series of overlanding sidecar posts, I give you the Ruko X-Plorer:

Unlike the Ural referenced previously, I’ll bet I could rig this for dogs, hawks and a ger.

In our workshop we have laid a new X-Plorer to the weld plate. Client is a world of travel Lithuanians, who plans a trip from Norway to Siberia and from Mongolia to Kazakhstan. Everything on gravel roads, of course! And of course with a RUKO X-Plorer

Nick Cave (no, not that one)
Amazing Soundsuits by Chicago-based sculptor/fiber artist/genius Nick Cave. Found by following an inbound link (to Tibetan Pop Surrealism) back and then googling like mad.

A slide show from the Fowler Museum, UCLA (hopefully, the link works well – the Fowler/phototour is a bit tricksy – if it doesn’t work, click on the Fowler link, then on Nick Cave Photo Tour).
