I listened to this one, John (appreciate your steady reading voice), but scrolled through to have a look at the photos. So many styles! Was the commode for the yurt equally top of the line? My word!
You did a nice job with this one. I always appreciate someone who can take an awkward subject and make it palatable. Very David Sedaris of you!
I see now that you included this in the essay, John (just now making the smile-inducing connection with your name and this topic - lol!). Good thing I wasn't taking an exam! Given I'm married to a fine furniture maker, I'd say a bucket of sawdust is just about right. :)
John a topic for normal people! And adventurous ones too. Your paths and mine show similar tastes-- I've pistopped often at Molas Lake and worked in Glacier National at Many Glacier Hotel; I'm certain I know that stop running by Blackfoot, too!
We may as well face our realities with humor and grace, I do always try to bring plenty of water. J
“Every two hours.” I, at 76, recognize the territory. Still, John, you did a fine balancing act with both the obvious and recording details of this adventure. I won’t claim surprise as you have demonstrated your prowess on many earlier adventures.
John, I love this. What a great thing to talk about on a road trip - I've been on my share, and bathrooms are definitely a big part of where and when you choose to stop. I also learned a bit of British history :)

The commode was top of the line from the outside. Inside was a bucket of sawdust!
And thank you for your kind words about my writing and speaking!

Well done, and of course quite on theme here at "mostly water." The yurt looks amazing!
The yurt was! It’s available on Hipcamp if you want to try it.
Thank you so much, Mary Beth, and yes, it’s Mostly Water!
I had the same thought about the theme, Mary Beth!
Great minds, both of you!
I finally have some time to catch up on your writings....I am really enjoying your "on the road" series! Take more trips John!
Thank you, Jaci. We'll likely be home till March, but yes, we have more trips planned!
Hello?

Thank you Janice! I'm not so sure about normal!
Indeed. What a small world.
Water is good. For all I write about it, I don't drink enough.

Thanks as always, Gary
I know all too well that moment when you suddenly realize how much of a car dweller you look like and what that could mean!
Great tale. Great topic.
Thank you Holly!

Paula! Thank you so much!
