I actually envisioned the melody of 'Were you born in asshole? Did you live there your whole life?. It's an old cowboy song that I haven't heard since the heavy metal bar days in Reno (1990ish) They used to end evening with it. Folks would raise their glasses and sing it drunkenly, and loudly, and t...

dear dear cryptofishist... we meet again. Thats a great piece of art. A bit harsh for me, but I can see it. This thread has drawn a few extremely interesting people into a conversation that I'm really digging. I want to hear more about or from AntiM, Bay Bridge Sue, Isotopia, and yes yourself who ha...

I want to tell you another Lovelock story... After Vietnam, Ole Uncle Larry owned one of the two gas/service stations in town (until a few years ago). In the seventies I would spend the summers with them, and he would pay me a wage of $3 to sweep the garage, fill the soda machines, and oil racks out...

I really look forward to a week of enjoying unadulterated adult fun, late nights, lazy siestas, a lot of the easy joys that children help us do without. I read that if I was sure I didn't want to be near children to camp away from kidcamp. I printed the map, and see where theme camps are based, but ...

I would love to have gotten close enough to something like that to look inside. Probably wouldn't look any different than inside my tent after several days. It tickles me that something so historical is in a museum and functionally used still. I'm sure they don't worry about no stinkin' shower. Anti...

The stone piles that you mention. Thats really awesome about the story of the 'basque boys'. I saw those for the first time in Ashland, Oregon on the Rogue River. I don't believe (then again I don't know) if they have basque origins. They were mystical, and made me curious. I definitely wanted to ma...

I remember a lot of Basque folks from Winnemucca, and Lovelock...Bangochea, Barenachea, Echetta, Echato. There is a basque restaurant in both Winnemucca, and Lovelock. I didn't see true 'Basque sheep herders' until I moved to Idaho though. Driving East on Highway 84 from Boise I've seen the ole canv...

now, now cowpolk. I know... fashioning a teepee out of sagebrush is not as envogue as gortex. We were destined to evolve away from the surreality of rural agricultural bliss, into urban suburbia only to find ourselves longing for the familiar simplicity of the three block town. I miss it when my car...

No, I'm not that girl. I'm the other one. I like the festas that they have every year though. chorisos, parades. Then you get that small town roast lamb with mint jelly in the community center down the road from the church atmosphere and it drips classic america Sounds like you may be a bit familiar...

I was born in Lovelock
I was born right there in the middle of that there desert. Didn't live there long, but I go back every year and visit family. As a teenager I drove over a cattle guard on a dirt road behind a mountain near there and blew out three tires. I hiked a few miles to a farm house and started reading a book...

A whole family branch of newby's
I am going to burning man this year with my mother! She taught me to enjoy good loud music, she loves to dance, and sing, and laugh, and I am so happy to get to be by her as we experience this. We will be attending with about 20 of our closest family and friends. My husband, her husband, both of my ...
