Dum Vivimus, Vivamus: Heading to the wheat fields.

Heading to the wheat fields.

Loading up the truck, and getting ready to do the whole 'early to bed, early to rise thing', with the goal being to be out of the house by 3:30AM so I can be in the wheat fields near Pomeroy before the sun comes up.

It would be nice to home by Saturday night, but just in case I've got reservations to rough it at the Pioneer Motel in Pomeroy. I've got to ease into this camping out thing before elk hunting next weekend.

That's a familiar looking landscape. Have a great elk hunt when it rolls around.

"What did I want?

I wanted the hurtling moons of Barsoom. I wanted Storisende and Poictesme, and Holmes shaking me awake to tell me, "The games' afoot!" I wanted to float down the Mississippi on a raft and elude a mob in company with the Duke of Bilgewater and the Lost Dauphin. I wanted Prester John and Excalibur held by a moon-white arm out of a silent lake. I wanted to sail with Ulysses and with Tros of Samothrace and eat the lotus in a land that seemed always afternoon.

I wanted the feeling of romance and the sense of wonder I had known as a kid. I wanted the world to be what they had promised me it was going to be -- instead of the tawdry, lousy, fouled-up mess it is."
-- Glory Road, Robert Heinlein
