Report from Planet Earth on a sunny day

Good news, The Commander loves the camping site Kadizzle picked out.  Can't blame her, we have a nice view of the lake and mountains.   The quite is a big bonus. No one ran a generator last night.  The sun is up, warm and filling the solar panel with free electricity.

At some point The Commander will have to see Gary's traveling museum on the dashboard of his truck. No singing has been emanating from his direction.  Kadizzle woke up in the middle of the night as usual with a round of weird dreams.  The interpretation is Kadizzle should try to be a good boy today.  Being a good boy is already a problem.  Kadizzle would like to go for a motorcycle exploration ride over in Peter Bigfoots mountain sanctuary area.  That would mean The Commander would have to entertain herself.  May not be a good idea.

The next snippet Kadizzle just picked up from Peter Bigfoot's site to give you some info and perhaps get you to visit his site.  Just by happenstance a friend of Kadizzle's daughter Megan was an intern with Bigfoot.  Two years ago the Kadizzle exploration crew inadvertently stumbled across the Bigfoot hideaway deep in the mountains south of Lake Roosevelt.

A recognized authority on Southwest plant life and desert survival, Peter Bigfoot is perhaps best known for his much-publicized July 1976 solo trek across the Sonoran Desert. He walked 85 miles in 15 days, and brought no food or water, relying strictly on what could be foraged along the way. Grueling heat, the constant threat of dehydration, and a bout with hepatitis were true tests of his wilderness survival wisdom.
This transformational experience inspired Bigfoot to found Reevis Mountain School of Self-Reliance, a magical wilderness homestead, farm, and sanctuary in the northeast corner of Arizona’s Superstition Wilderness, far from the distractions and pollution of modern life. Here, since 1980, thousands of students and visitors have experienced Bigfoot’s uniquely loving blend of botanical knowledge, survival skills, natural healing techniques, and spiritual awareness.
Today, Bigfoot spends most of his time working on the farm, teaching, writing, and producing a line of herbal remedies. He has the assistance of his wife, Patricia, and a changing group of interns who come here to experience Reevis and learn from Bigfoot's decades of wisdom.

The Bigfoot compound is like a movie set for life in the sixties.  A bunch of people trying to build their own nirvana unhampered by the world outside.
