Back Across The Desert

I picked up my new camels and began the journey back across the desert. I will be watching for travelers that are wandering off the trail. When I get to Desolation Point at Relapse Rocks, I will check to be sure nobody has fallen over the edge. The trail to bypass this place is well marked, so I shouldn't find anyone.

I hung the stone the Old Goat gave me by a cord around my camels neck. I keep it well cleaned so it can be easily read. It is a good reminder to me as well as the travelers I meet to Keep Them Away From Your Face.

I have had to replace several markers along the trail, but most of them have faired well.

I am checking each traveler as I meet them. I will re-supply them and offer any help that I can.

Safe journey to everyone.

One step, and then another, will get you to where you want to go.

Hugs and love to all.

About the Author
I am a male that underwent coronary artery bypass X3 (triple) on 10/22/13 at the age of 55. I was living on about 20-30% of one coronary artery and my left heart output was only 20% to 25%. I spent a week in the hospital after surgery and went home. Then had to go back a day later for another week because I had pneumonia. Finally a few days because of a slight arythmia. All told it has been about 2 1/2 weeks. I am past the cravings by now and only have the urges to contend with. I really don't suggest that anyone quits smoking using this technique though. I'll have to carry the scars from that day for the rest of my life. The large one down the center of my chest, and the ones from several "silent" infarctions. I came that close to the next world. Never again will I subject my body to that (at one point in my life I was smoking 5 packs of cigarillos a day). I now have to say N.O.P.E. (Not One Puff Ever) every day of my life.
