I am tying up a luxurious 10 week stay in the lush mountains of North Carolina, while Keith still basks in the dry heat of eastern Montana. Today Keith is driving to North Dakota to spend a few days in the Bakken Oil fields. Halliburton is doing some "frac-ing" (pardon my made up spelling) and Keith is particularily interested in watching and learning. I am involved in more mundane chores of packing up summer and heading north.
"You have made your way around this hill country long enough; now turn north." That is from Deuteronomy and like the Israelites, I guess it is time to plod on home.
