The Deep End My recent great attempt to evade the New York winter

No, I haven't been kidnapped by a cult.  This will be the first and only posting by me until I reach an area of better bandwidth/electrical stability.  I have, on two consecutive nights, lost power to my computer while writing posts to this here travelogue.  These postings were funny, these postings were honest, these postings were shocking these postings were tear-jerking and now they are lost, floating somewhere in the digital ether.  I lost gold, ya hear me; PURE GOLD.  I love you all, see you soon (not too soon).
