Lost Creek Longhouse Chapter 1: Getting There
Ultra-light camping is all well and good, but I had a somewhat different approach in mind for the expedition to Lost Creek. I wanted to build a longhouse. I wasn’t exactly sure how to put one together; I did know it would take all the canvas I had and a...
A Quick Overnight
This piece first appeared June 2018 as Meine Freiheit in Nr.38 of International Sidecar Traveller. By Monday afternoon I knew something had to be done. Work was beginning to take its toll, and I still had the rest of the week to go....

Sidecar Traveller Nbr.43
Did you get your copy of the latest issue of Sidecar Traveller yet? We have another article published. My words and Andy's photos. A picture Andy took of me and Walter in front of the tipi graces the full page of the back cover....
Low Census
The doctors took the day off so they sent me home. It was warm out; it seemed like a good day to change my tires. The front tire was still good, so I left it alone. The rear bike tire was badly worn and the sidecar tire was bald, so I devoted my attention to replacing...
Good Morning

Good Morning
1/10/26 6:30 33F (0.5C) Calm, dry, icy. The waning half moon glows dimly through a gauzey veil of clouds. Something just grabbed a duck from the pond. I could hear them thrashing, wings beating the water, and the frightened calls of his companions making...
Good Morning
1/9/26 6:30 33F (0.5C) Cold, calm. The waning moon is completely obscured by clouds. It is a dark morning. Amy's headlights sweep across the tipi poles as she pulls out to go to an early union meeting. I am proud of her. It is an important job, perhaps...
Good Morning
1/8/26 5:45 37F (2.7C) There is a light wind blowing a swirling, cold mist. The moon, waning gibbous, and at least one star pierce the thin clouds overhead. Both thermometers read 37F, but it feels colder than that and ice dots the horizontal surfaces....
